Hi all, I’m super happy to see the interest in getting an org-mode usergroup off the ground! I’m even happier about the fact that we could help you address the technical and logistical issues that have been raised in this thread.
Since EmacsConf 2020, Sacha and I have been working with Emacs usergroup organizers to provide them with the tools needed to publicize, host, and record their sessions. We have a page on the EmacsWiki which lists all the usergroups we know of: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Usergroups For the recording problem at hand, we’d be able to offer you access to a BigBlueButton (BBB) [0] instance running on a server we own (kindly provided to us by Fosshost). BBB provides server-side recording for all audio and video feeds, and we’ve been using it to record and publish the live Q&A with EmacsConf speakers without problems.

Captions are also something we could help you with! Last year, for EmacsConf 2021, we managed to get almost all the talks captioned before broadcast thanks to our team of volunteers. This year, we’ve improved our process by introducing speech recognition via OpenAI Whisper [1], and we’ve been pretty happy with the results. We’d be happy to help you get set up for captioning too, especially if there’s a great talk you’d like to extract and share. Let me know what you're interested in and we’ll set you up with everything. :) Notes: [0] BigBlueButton (BBB) is FLOSS Video conferencing suite.
