Trainer Recordings
DaDesktop provides several methods for capturing desktop and course activity as recordings. These can be troubleshooting recordings, training room recordings, or trainer recordings.
A trainer recording specifically captures the trainer's own DaDesktop machine. To begin recording the trainer's session, follow these steps:
- Click the three vertical dots to open a small dropdown menu, then select 'Connect (with session recording)'.
-
This creates an audio/video recording of the trainer's machine, but you can't view it until after you close the virtual classroom, when the recording is finalized. Note: If you're a SuperAdmin, you'll see an extra menu option to watch live recordings as they're happening.
- To access and edit the recordings, click the 'cog' icon and then the Recordings menu.

Recordings
You can view trainer recordings of the trainer's machine in two ways.
- Recordings can be accessed from the Recordings menu, as described earlier. You can play or delete recordings as needed. The double spanner icon indicates 'Troubleshooting Recordings' - these are generated automatically, not for presentation, but for troubleshooting when required.

2. Alternatively, go to the 'Recordings' tab in a course to view trainer recordings, training room recordings, and troubleshooting recordings.
