How can i download a recording.
My mom was a participant of a course whose recordings are on Bigbluebutton. I'm able to download the individual deskshare.webm, webcams.webm and the png files of the presentation but would prefer a single download. I've searched and googled to no end but I've not been able to find out a workable way to get all 3 elements of the recording in a single video. My mom is not very tech-savvy and needs to refer to the course recordings.
Any help or suggestions on how can I get a single (say mp4 format) video of all 3 elements - webcam, deskshare and the presentation?

I need a single executable file works on Windows, Mac-Os or Linux systems. This software also needs ffmepg executable on your path, capable of encoding with parameter libx264
Program asks for url of presentation, then downloads slides, creates slides.mp4, downloads webcams.webm, creates webcams.mp4, then merges slides.mp4 and webcams.mp4 side by side. Unfortunately cursor movements, desktop share, chat windows is not included. Best way to include them is, clone and build the code from https://github.com/jibon57/bbb-recorder on a Linux system.
What I share is a proof of concept software, programmed in Oldskool fashion, straight 200 lines of code. This is also my first program coded with go language. If you want to see the downloaded pictures, and created videos before deleted, comment two lines near the end of the code
I didn't try the code on Linux or Mac-OS systems, but I expect no problem
Do-not use it. It consumes so much processor sources, and can't show cursor movements, desktop share, chat windows. Use https://github.com/jibon57/bbb-recorder on Linux instead. bbb-recorder uses codes from puppetcam depends on xvfb which doesn't exist for Windows operating system. For windows 10 compatible puppetcam look at: https://github.com/Ventricule/html2screen

How do I download the video recording of a BigBlueButton session?
This tutorial only applies if you have subscribed to our BigBlueButton service. It should be noted that this option is not available for users or installations outside of our hosting
Table of Contents
Did you know that you can download all your recordings with our BBB plugin? That’s right, we have developed a new recording format called “Video” that allows you to export your BigBlueButton recordings in MP4 format. The only requirement is that you record the videoconference in advance. Once the session is finished, you will be able to see the new format in the recording management panel. Please note that the creation of this format is correlated with the duration of the BBB session, so the preview may take several minutes or even hours.
Steps to download a BigBlueButton recording
Below are the steps you should follow to download the recordings to your computer.
In the recording panel, click on the “video” format.
A new window with the session recording will open. To download the session in MP4 format, including audio and interactions, click the three vertical dots in the lower right corner.
Later, in your computer’s file explorer, choose the folder in which you wish to store the recording and click “Save.”
*We reiterate that this option only applies to our customers. If you have your BBB service with another provider, this option is most likely not available.
Who can download the session video?
Any user with access to the BigBlueButton activity can download the recording by following the steps outlined above. However, in the case of Moodle, we have developed a parameter that allows both administrators and teachers to hide the downloadable format at any time.

Presenter / Moderator - How to upload a presentation to BigBlueButton
You can upload your slides or documents to edit them live in a meeting with attendees or students, and allow the attendees or students to download the files to their desktop for later.
To upload documents and enable them for download, you'll need to have the presenter role .
When you enter a new meeting session, if you have the role of moderator, you will be assigned presenter capabilities. If you're not a presenter, but are just watching the meeting, you will need to request that you be promoted to a presenter. If the moderator doesn't know that they have promote you to presenter you can ask them to do so via private or public chat.
When a user is assigned the presenter role, an icon appears over their avatar in the list of users.
BigBlueButton has a size restrictions on the size of uploads as well as a limited number of formats which are supported. BigBlueButton will accept many major document formats such as .doc .docx .pptx and .pdf; the PDF format is the best for uploading documents.
The maximum size is 30 MB or 150 pages per document; you can upload multiple documents into the BigBlueButton as long as they are under the size restrictions. If your document is too large, use an online PDF tool to split the document into smaller number of pages which will reduce the size.
Select the Actions menu in the lower left hand corner of the presentation window, then choose Upload a Presentation.
The BigBlueButton presentation uploader will appear. The uploader allows you to drag and drop files into the uploader or browse for files on your OS.
When uploading multiple files, click the document you want to appear by default and check the green circle to the right of it.
Once you've selected the file(s) to upload, press "Start" button to convert and upload them.
Please note that it may take a few seconds to minutes for a document to be converted and uploaded to the meeting.
Enabling for Download
A presenter can enable any uploaded document for download by the audience of the live conference.
To enable, select the Enable Download icon located to the right of the document.
The icon will change to green to indicate the document selected can be downloaded by viewers.
How do I download documents?

You'll need to produce your video by adding the images form your presentation on a video editor, syncing them, to the video and rendering the project.
I don't know a way of downloading a video file from the recordings folder. Each presentation is a sequence of images, someone could make a script to render it into a video so you could sync to the webcams video.
Until then the best you can add the slides manually.

new-features
BigBlueButton 2.7 offers users improved usability, increased engagement, and more performance.
- Usability - making common functions (such as raise hand) easier
- Engagement - giving the instructor more ways to engage students
- Performance - increasing overall performance and scalability
Here's a breakdown of what's new in 2.7.
Usability
Grid layout .
We have enhanced the layout which is focused on webcams by providing a visual representation of each participant. This way whether a webcam was shared or not, you can more easily be aware of who is speaking, who is present etc.
Camera as content
In hybrid learning (and not only) there is a frequently a need for displaying a physical whiteboard or draw the attention of students to a specific physical area. We now support using a webcam as the main content to occupy the presentation area.
Disable viewing your own video stream
You can now disable the self viewing of your webcam to reduce fatigue of seeing your own webcam stream. This has been a common request in the recent months. When you disable the view you will see an image of yourself with an overlay reminding you that your webcam is still active and others see you.
You can re-enable viewing your own webcam at any point.
Restore downloading of original presentation
In BigBlueButton 2.4 and 2.5 we supported optional downloading of the entire presentation. In BigBlueButton 2.6 we replaced this option with the capability to download the presentation with all the annotations embedded in it. As of BigBlueButton 2.7 you are be able to do both! In fact, you could select between the presentation with the current state of the annotations, the original file that was uploaded, or in case BigBlueButton had to convert the presentation file to PDF, you could also select that intermediate PDF file to be downloaded.
The download button is overlayed on top of the presentation.
Timer and stopwatch
We have added the long requested option to display a count down (timer) or a count up (stopwatch) in the session. They are displayed to all participants and there is an audio notification when the timer elapses.
Setting up a timer for four minutes.
Everyone sees the timer as it counts down.
Wake lock
When using BigBlueButton on a mobile device you can now enable Wake lock (if your mobile browser supports the API). When enabled, your device's screen will remain on -- i.e. will not dim -- and therefore your media connections will not be interrupted.
Prevent specific users from posting to the public chat
In some cases one or two students can wreck havoc in the public chat by posting excessively or doing all they can to disrupt the flow of the session. We have introduced a new menu option to lock the ability to send public chat messages for a specific user. That user could later be allowed to post again by using the same menu.
Engagement
Reactions bar .
The Reactions Bar aims to make it much easier for students to respond with emojis to the teacher. The emoji is displayed in the user avatar area for 1 minute (configurable). The bar remains visible once activated, and the emoji selected remains visible until it times out or is unselected. Modifying the configuration options (settings.yml) an additional set of emojis can be displayed, or the Reactions Bar can be substituted with the Status selecter we used in BigBlueButton 2.6 and prior.
Others see your reactions in the participants list.
Reactions animation
Animations were added to the Reactions Bar as part of BigBlueButton 2.7.2. By default they are disabled in the configurations. To enable them run the following: yq w -i /etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-html5.yml public.app.emojiRain.enabled true
You can disable any animations in the client, including Reactions Animations via a toggle in the client: Settings -> Application -> Animations on/off.
Breakout rooms can use different presentations
Starting with BigBlueButton 2.7.10 when creating breakout rooms you can specify what presentation to be used in each room. The default option remains to be a copy of the current slide from the current presentation. If annotations exporting is enabled in the breakouts, the export result will either be a single slide (if annotations were only made there) or the entire presentation (if annotations were made on more than one slide).
Experimental
New camera and screen share recorder .
Kurento Media Server is still used in BigBlueButton as a recorder for mediasoup streams. In 2.7, however, there's a new experimental recorder based on the Pion project: bbb-webrtc-recorder . This application is written in Go as a standalone service that can be used to record video and screen share streams. The main goal is for bbb-webrtc-recorder to replace Kurento Media Server in BigBlueButton once production grade. Progress can be tracked in:
- Issue 13999
- The bbb-webrtc-recorder repository
If you want to try the new recorder, you need to instruct bbb-webrtc-sfu to use it:
Issues found during testing should be reported on BigBlueButton's issue tracker or issue 13999 .
Reverting to the default recorder (Kurento) can be achieved by removing the recordingAdapter line from /etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-webrtc-sfu/production.yml and restarting bbb-webrtc-sfu .
Transparent listen only mode
We've added a new experimental audio mode called "transparent listen only". The goal is to pave the way for a better audio experience in BigBlueButton by removing the need for end users to pick between listen only and microphone modes while still providing a scalable audio solution.
The motivation for this mode can be found in issue 14021 , while the implementation details are available in pull request 18461 .
In version 2.7, we present the initial iteration of this audio mode, primarily focusing on the server side. The primary objective is to assess the viability of the proposed approach and gather community feedback.
The new mode is turned off by default and is considered experimental . To enable it:
- Server wide: configure public.media.transparentListenOnly: true in /etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-html5.yml , then restart bbb-html5 ( systemctl restart bbb-html5 )
- Per user: utilize userdata-bbb_transparent_listen_only=true
Upgraded components
Under the hood, BigBlueButton 2.7 installs on Ubuntu 20.04 64-bit, and the following key components have been upgraded
- Spring 2.7.17
- NodeJS 18 (up from 16) for bbb-pads , bbb-export-annotations , bbb-webrtc-sfu , bbb-etherpad , bbb-webhooks
- Java 17 (up from 11) for bbb-common-message , bbb-common-web , bigbluebutton-web , akka-bbb-apps , bbb-fsesl-client , and akka-bbb-fsesl
- Meteor 2.13
- Groovy 3.0.11
For full details on what is new in BigBlueButton 2.7, see the release notes.
Recent releases:
- 2.7.0-beta.3
- 2.7.0-beta.2
- 2.7.0-beta.1
- 2.7.0-alpha.3
- 2.7.0-alpha.2
- 2.7.0-alpha.1
Other notable changes
Renaming (bigbluebutton/bbb-install)bbb-install-2.7.sh from master branch to bbb-install.sh on branch v2.7.x-release .
If you are using bbb-install to configure your servers, be aware that starting with BigBlueButton 2.6's version of bbb-install by default we install a local TURN server. For more information: https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bbb-install/pull/579 and https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/administration/turn-server
Changing the default setting guestPolicyExtraAllowOptions
Starting with BigBlueButton 2.7.0-beta.3 we are hiding by default a couple extra options in the guest approve panel. 'Allow all authenticated users' and 'Allow all guests' options will be hidden unless you override the option app.public.guestPolicyExtraAllowOptions in bbb-html5 config file settings.yml . These extra options were not relevant to the vast majority of the use cases and when hidden, the interface becomes much simpler.
Changing the default setting wakeLock
Starting with BigBlueButton 2.7.0-beta.3 we are enabling wake lock feature by default. It can be disabled by overriding the option public.app.wakeLock.enabled in bbb-html5 config file settings.yml .
Override default presentation on CREATE via url
In BigBlueButton 2.7.2 we introduced a new way to include a presentation (with the goal to override default.pdf).
Given that there are a few parameters involved, we'd like to provide an example here in addition to the existing documentation in the API table for the CREATE call.
In the above example on meeting creation BigBlueButton will pull the pdf, will convert it and when you join the meeting there will be only one presentation based on the sample.pdf url, named ScientificPaper.pdf. If preUploadedPresentationOverrideDefault=false (or omitted, since false is the default value), in the meeting you will see default.pdf as the current presentation and one more preloaded presentation called ScientificPaper.pdf to which you can switch at any point without having to wait for conversion to take place.
Improved support for various SHA algorithms for checksum calculation
In BigBlueButton 2.6.17/2.7.5 we added a new configuration property for bbb-apps-akka package under services called checkSumAlgorithmForBreakouts . By default the value is "sha256" . It controls the algorithm for checksum calculation for the breakout rooms join link. In case you overwrite bbb-web's supportedChecksumAlgorithms property removing sha256 you will need to set a supported algorithm here too. For example if you want to only use sha512 , set supportedChecksumAlgorithms=sha512 in /etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-web.properties and also set checkSumAlgorithmForBreakouts="sha512" in /etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-apps-akka.conf and then restart BigBlueButton.
Removed support for POST requests on join endpoint and Content-Type headers are now required
In BigBlueButton 2.6.18/2.7.8 POST requests are no longer allowed for the join endpoint. To ensure they are validated properly, a Content-Type header must also be provided for POST requests that contain data in the request body. Endpoints now support a limited set of content types that includes text/xml , application/xml , application/x-www-form-url-encoded , and multipart/form-data . By default each endpoint only supports application/x-www-form-urlencoded and multipart/form-data , but individual endpoints can override this and define their own set of supported content types. The create endpoint supports all of the four previously listed content types while insertDocument supports only text/xml and application/xml . Any requests with a content type that differs from the set supported by the target endpoint will be rejected with a new unsupportedContentType error.

To have your voice transcribed you must enable it by selecting the desired language from the drop-down selector from the join audio dialog. When a user selects a language for automatic transcription, a CC icon will display next to their name in the “who is talking” indicator. You don’t need to have selected transcription of your audio to view the transcriptions for others. When one or more users have enabled transcription, a CC button will appear. To view the transcriptions for those with ‘CC’ in their “who is talking” icon, press the CC button. The placement of the ‘CC’ button depends on your device. For mobile devices, the ‘CC’ button is in the three dots at the top right corner. For desktop, the ‘CC’ button is in the bottom left. Desktop users can also select the language that the captioning will display in by pressing the up arrow on the CC button. Note: The automatic transcription is only available for browsers that support SpeechRecognition (Google Chrome, MS Edge, and Safari). If you join with non-supported browsers, you will see a warning at the bottom of the join audio dialog. To enable automatic translations for users of Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Safari, edit the /etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-html5.yml and add the following to the public: section then restart BigBlueButton. This release will introduce a new recording format that creates a single video file that includes audio, video, screen share, presentation, and whiteboard marks recorded during the session. The file format will be .vp8 (with configuration options to alternatively create a .mp4 file as well). The echo test dialog has been updated, adding an audio stream volume indicator. The recording indicator has been made bigger. PersonalizationTo enable/disable dark mode click on the 3 vertical dots [1] in the upper right-hand corner and select Settings. Under the Application panel [1], you will find the Dark mode setting [2]. Use the slider next to Dark mode to toggle between on/off. Click the Save button [3] to apply the setting. You can pin one or more webcam(s), so they always stay visible. This is useful if one of the webcams is showing sign language, for example, and you always want it to be visible. You can upload a custom background image from the Webcam settings page. Click on the camera icon, then the plus button. You will then be able to select a background image to upload from your computer. The selected image will show up in the first position on the left in the list of available backgrounds to use. To delete a custom background, click the X in the upper right-hand corner of the image and it will be removed from your background selections. You can adjust the brightness of your image or the entire image as a whole using the Brightness slider bar at the bottom of the Webcam settings window. If the Whole image radio button is selected it will adjust the brightness of the whole image, if it isn’t selected only your image will be adjusted. You can customize the webcam location by clicking and dragging to a new position (top, bottom, left, right or to the bottom of the shared notes). Related articles
