Question

Download recorded meeting into single file.

Hi,

I'm using the feature of Adobe Connect that lets me download a recorded meeting into ZIP format. The ZIP file contains a bunch of files, but most interesting are the main FLV file for the video and a separate MP3 file for the audio.

I want to be able to package up both the video and the audio into a single file, ideally in a form that I can convert to something I can put onto a hand held device like an iPod.

Is it possible to choose a download format other than ZIP that will return, say, a single FLV file containing audio? Or some other format? If not, can anybody recommend a method for combining the audioless FLV with the MP3 and for converting the result into something playable on iPod devices?

Cheers,

scott

ScottC2 & the rest:

This is for people still looking for an answer. If you are starting with long form URL, like:

https://XXXXXX.adobeconnect.com/a1b2c3d4e5/?launcher=false&fcsContent=true&pbMode=normal

then trim it down until it looks like:

https://XXXXXX.adobeconnect.com/a1b2c3d4e5/

(this is the URL you usually send to people to send them to your video) Now append the following to the shortened URL:

output/filename.zip?download=zip

...making our example above:

https://XXXXXX.adobeconnect.com/a1b2c3d4e5/output/filename.zip?download=zip

Simple!

How do you view the files after you zipped them all.

I'm thinking that the best response is to take the recording offline using the traditional format (so it becomes an FLV). If you'd like to then share it with others, upload it to the Shared Content folder and make it public. That way anyone can watch it. If they'd like to download it, they can use this:

https://mydomain.adobeconnect.com/myuploadedflv/output/myflvfilename.flv?download=myflvfilename.flv

Please note here that "myflvfilename.flv" must exactly match the name and file extension of the file you'd like to download, and you also have to enter the same name after "download=".

The reason why I recommend this over downloading the raw contents of a recording is that as Nadia has found out, there's no way to play them back unless you upload it as a zip back into Adobe Connect. If there were camera pods and some form of VOIP used (either Universal Voice or microphones), then you could technically merge the two together to get a single playable file out of it, but it's only going to show the A/V, not the whole recording, and it's tricky. I've done it. To answer Scott's question what you'd have to use is a video editing tool like Premiere, and import the audio & video, then line them up. It's the lining it up bit that can get tricky.

In short - taking the recording offline into a single FLV is far easier.

Here's another option. Handy if you just want to get the audio and video files to edit or archive.

The "Make Offline" function should give you a single offline FLV file.

Under recordings, select the recording infos and there you should have a button labelled "Make Offline".

Hi Kay,

That's fine if I'm trying to download one of my own recordings. But is there a way for me to make this FLV available to other people wishing to download a meeting I hosted? For example, the URL method workds for a ZIP file. Is there anything equivalent for single FLV?

Cheers,

scott

No, you would need to post the FLV to a shared room or share pod or other file sharing method.
