I thought I read in this group that BBB 2.6 includes the ability to download recordings.  If so, does that translate in the Moodle plugin?

If you install the video format on the 2.6 server,  Moodle with show both the presentation and video formats

Thanks Stephen - do you know if there are steps to install formats?

FYI: Also additional formats like podcast are displayed by Moodle.
Afair Moodle will display all formats that are delivered in the getRecordings-Call. Even if you build your own format.

Thank you - I was able to edit the bigbluebutton.yml file and see the video option within the BBB Moodle plugin.  

Adding the configuration change to the apply-config.sh file using yq proved challenging.  Yq doesn't seem to honor quotes the way the file is described in the customize docs.  I thought I'd share my solution:

yq w -i /usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/bigbluebutton.yml steps.captions[0] PLACEHOLDER1
yq w -i /usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/bigbluebutton.yml steps.captions[1] PLACEHOLDER2
yq w -i /usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/bigbluebutton.yml steps.PLACEHOLDER3
sed -ri "s/PLACEHOLDER1/'process:presentation'/" /usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/bigbluebutton.yml
sed -ri "s/PLACEHOLDER2/'process:video'/" /usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/bigbluebutton.yml
sed -ri "s/PLACEHOLDER3:/'process:video': 'publish:video'/" /usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/bigbluebutton.yml

One tip..  Place these in

 

/etc/bigbluebutton/recording/presentation.yml

/etc/bigbluebutton/recording/recording.yml          <- this is bigbluebutton.yml

 

Then the next bbb-install won’t overwrite the files every time.
