Hello,

I have a former production BBB Server with old recordings (around 400) as presentation format and I was hoping to convert all the presentations to mp4 formats.

I followed the configuration and set everything like I have in my new production server (where the mp4 format creation works).

When I now do a bbb-record --list, I am only getting max 5 entries, although we have more.

The changes that I did on this server are the following:

mkdir /etc/bigbluebutton/recording
added two files: recording.yml and presentation.yml with the following content:

recording.yml:

steps:
  archive: "sanity"
  sanity: "captions"
  captions:
    - 'process:presentation'
    - 'process:video'
  'process:presentation': 'publish:presentation'
  'process:video': 'publish:video'

presentation.yml:

video_output_width: 640
video_output_height: 480
video_output_framerate: 15
# Alternate output size to use when deskshare videos are present
# Set higher so that deskshare output is higher quality, but uses more space.
deskshare_output_width: 1280
deskshare_output_height: 720
deskshare_output_framerate: 5
# offset applied to audio in the output video file
# audio_offset = 1200 means that the audio will be delayed by 1200ms
audio_offset: 0
include_deskshare: true

# For PRODUCTION
publish_dir: /var/bigbluebutton/published/presentation
video_formats:
- webm
- mp4

# For DEVELOPMENT
#publish_dir: /home/ubuntu/temp/published/presentation

I restarted the services:

systemctl restart bbb-rap-starter && systemctl restart bbb-rap-resque-worker.service

anybody know how I can start to work on this?
Thx
