Recorded Webinar Events (Simulated Live Webinars)
- You cannot switch a recorded event to a live session. If a live session is needed, it will need to be scheduled separately from the recorded event.
- Only computer audio is available to attendees watching your event so there's no need to customize any audio settings.
- Recorded webinars cannot currently be password protected. If this is needed, consider scheduling a standard event.
- While you won't see recorded events in your webinar history, you can generate reports on these sessions as desired.
- The number of attendees who can watch your Recorded webinar is determined by the registration limit for your account.
Schedule a recorded event
Results: You can allow attendees to pause, rewind, and fast forward the webinar by enabling Show Player Controls (to Attendees).
Change the recording used
- Sign in to your account at https://dashboard.gotowebinar.com.
- Select the recorded event to open the event details.
- From About, select the field with the attached recording.
- Choose a different recording, then select Save.
Troubleshooting: If you cannot change the recording, it may be because you published it to your GoTo Stage channel. In this case, you will have to create a new Recorded event and add the correct recording.
Run the event
There is no Start button for Recorded events. That's because they are designed to launch themselves automatically, either at the scheduled date and time or "on-demand" depending on the occurrence you selected. Because it's pre-recorded, there's no ability to promote attendees during the session or answer questions live. However, attendees can use the floating question button to questions during the event. All questions asked by participants will be emailed to the host afterwards to follow up with as desired.
