When it comes to videos, you&#8217;ll notice two resolutions in the Video settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Send resolution is how clear your camera&#8217;s video looks to others in the meeting. If you crank it up, others get a better-quality video of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Receive resolution is how clear the video of other people looks to you. If you bump it up, you get a better view of others in your meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just remember, higher resolution means better quality, but it also means bigger file sizes if you&#8217;re recording. If you&#8217;ve got plenty of space on your Drive, you&#8217;re good to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-is-recording-a-meeting-important\"><strong>Why Is Recording a Meeting Important?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Recording meetings isn&#8217;t just about comfort\u2014it&#8217;s about practicality too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, it&#8217;s handy for reference. Let&#8217;s say you chat with a new client about a partnership. Having that meeting recorded gives everyone involved a clear reference point, preventing misunderstandings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, recordings are great for training and presentations. You can record yourself going through topics for your team, and creating useful materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, in HR, recording interviews helps decision-makers review candidates thoroughly. It&#8217;s a failsafe against any selective memory mishaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-recording-software-for-google-meets\"><strong>Best Recording Software for Google Meets<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To record your screen, your device likely has a built-in tool. But if you want to do more than just record, like improving audio or video quality, you&#8217;ll need special software. There are lots of options out there, but here are our favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-camtasia\"><strong>1.

It captures your screen activity without any editing features. You can add basic annotations like text, boxes, or arrows. The recordings are saved locally or in the cloud for paid users. It&#8217;s free and easy to use, but only works on MacOS and lacks editing options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bottom-line\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some folks might not like being recorded or recording others, and that&#8217;s understandable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always let everyone know before you start recording.
