last night's online meeting recorded?

[Michael L]

Hello all,

I always learned at least something at each meeting listening to those more knowledgeable than myself.  Is the online session recorded?

With NLUG's help, Linux saved us $36000 the last two years and I still feel like a beginner.  Amazingly two of our non-tech pc users, ages 77 and 81 are on Ubuntu instead of Windows which keeps my hair on my head and my blood pressure down.

Thanks to everyone who's participated in keeping NLUG going over the years.

Sorry, it could have been recorded, but I didn't think about doing that. (Do we have a server to host recorded meetings?) The session was not too directed. More the four of us talking about their use of Linux. I'll have to remember that next month.

Topics included: video editing software, reasons to use VM's, flatpacks, and particulars issues with student use of a Raspberry Pi for a course. Probably a few more topics I'm not recalling right off.

Paul

Has anyone done a real server type app on a small cluster of Pi's?
Seems like it might be enough power for something that doesn't need a
huge computer or storage server. ... Just thinking out loud.

Did we actually have a meeting? No announcement was sent to the email
list with a meeting link, so I assumed no September meeting took place.

No meeting announcement with a meeting link was sent out to the mailing list, so I assumed the meeting had been cancelled. Where was the link announced?

Vincent Brown posted the link in the Meet Up shortly after 6pm the day of the meeting. I also posted it in a comment on the meeting at about the same time.  I believe the late posting of the link by Vincent was an attempt to prevent Zoom-bombing.

Vincent also had some other things happening that night and wasn't sure he was going to be able to make it to the meeting. So that could have played into it as well.

Next month's Zoom meeting link has already been created and sent to Vincent Brown and John OMalley.

FYI. I never post meeting links or meeting locations to the mailing lists. I only post meetup registration links to the mailing list. For online events, we want to limit the link to registered users to prevent zoom bombing. For physical meetings, we want everyone to register so Vaco knows how much food to order.

We are striving to have meeting topics announced sooner though. If there's a topic any of you are interested in learning about or presenting, please send feedback. Sometimes the hardest part is coming up with ideas.

@Paul, do we have an option to record on your zoom link? I didn't record the last couple meetings but didn't think it was an option. We've been trying different tools (Webex, zoom). 

[Paul Boniol]

Recording:  Yes, I can record the meeting (provided hard drive space is sufficient lol, IT specd a small SSD drive for my work laptop... 25GB free at the moment. I may need to investigate external depending how much space recordings take).  It can also be recorded to "the cloud", but again I'd have to investigate what to do with that once we're done.  (Do we have a server where meeting recordings live?)

Topic: My latest investigations are trying to figure out how to record a radio broadcast daily. (This is only for my personal listening later, at a different time.)  I've been starting the audio through the browser, and manually starting Audio Recorder (which can auto-stop recording to mp3 after x hours). I am looking for a way to automate it instead of having to start it manually. Also the computer can't be used for a whole lot else since it records mixed audio, so I'm looking to record from the internet stream directly. Everything I have found so far only performs parts of what I'm wanting. Possibly some sort of cron script? Idk, especially for auto-stopping a process if it isn't designed to do so...  That's getting beyond what I've done, but interested in learning.  

Does that give any ideas for possible topics?

If an external HDD is necessary, my employer can pay for it and if cloud storage is necessary, my employer can contribute towards that too (since NLUG saved my employer $36k and counting).  I will suggest that a free YouTube channel can host (private or public) recordings; my experience with that is 2.5Mbps 720p mp4's will work (don't know the format of our recording, but FFMPEG should handle any transcoding necessary).  We can make recordings private, available only to NLUG via password and make them publicly viewable if NLUG officers want to do that.

I benefit every time I hear more knowledgeable Linux users talk.
