We have this concern at our institution as well. We dealt with it, at least for the short term, by making it clear that the lecture is being recorded, what is being recorded (this side of the room, etc) and when it is being recorded. We have no encountered any issues so far. We are also working on a hardware solution which would indicate not only the status of the recording, but also the audio levels. This hardware is still very much in the design stage however. > We feel it is paramount that Matterhorn have an on/off recording control > for the faculty member. > > Are we being overly sensitive to this issue? Should the Matterhorn > Community strongly advocate for a recording on/off control? Speaking as a developer on the capture team, this is far easier said than done. It is obviously possible, but unfortunately the current feature roadmap places this functionality far into the future.
