Record your topic
Camera, screen or both, one take, and what happens between pressing stop and your video being in the meeting.
Updated October 6, 2026
Open the meeting from your invitation and press Record on your topic. To hand in a video you already made, press Use an existing video instead and pick it from your videos.
You need to be a speaker to record. During a trial everyone can record. Otherwise, if you aren't a speaker yet, the page lets you ask an admin.
You can record until the organiser publishes the meeting, even after the deadline. Once it is published, your topic has no Record button; ask the organiser to unpublish it.
Recording
Record your camera, your screen or both; you can switch during a take. On a phone there is no screen sharing. The clock shows the target length and never stops you.
After you stop
You see the take, and it starts uploading in the background right away. Nobody sees it until you send it. From here you can:
- Send to the meetingYour video goes into your topic. That's all you need to do.
- Record againStart over with a new take.
- Cut the ends offTrim the start and end.
- Save to deviceDownload a copy of this take, from the More menu. Once a video is in the meeting, Capme offers no download.
Uploading
Keep the tab open until your video is sent. If the connection drops, it picks up where it left off. If it fails for good, the screen says so and Send to the meeting tries again.
Your take is saved in the browser while you record, so closing the tab doesn't lose it. When recording or playback doesn't work explains how to send it afterwards.
Still processing
On Capme hosting, a video is converted after the upload, which takes a few minutes. The meeting shows it as almost ready in the meantime and updates by itself when it can play.
Replacing your video
Until the organiser publishes the meeting, press Record again on your topic to replace your video. The old one is deleted, unless it is also used in another meeting.
