Interestingly enough, there is an audio tape recorder built-in to our sound system in the chapel. It's part of the setup at the sacrament table, I suppose so a priest can discretely start and stop the recording. Our chapel is new (built in 2000) so this should be additional confirmation that audio recordings are allowed.

I was going to challenge this, but I checked and you are correct. There is no explicit prohibition of audio recordings of a sacrament service unless it is a General Authority speaking. If there is a General Authority, you can take notes for personal use, but even your personal, hand-written notes should not be distributed. (of course, if this had been followed historically, we wouldn't have the King Folliet discourse or a few other 'minor' sermons :-)

I recall there is something about making video recordings and taking pictures in the chapel.
Yup, this is explicitly banned! So, if you get married in the chapel (which is now acceptable), you can't video tape the wedding.

I'm very grateful that we got my Father's last sermon in stake conference before this prohibition came about. It's a treasure to me and my children. My Father's descendants would be much poorer without it!
