Recording Events

Overview

Meddly enables teams to record events on multiple mobile devices at the same time through the mobile app.

Want to record from a DSLR, drone, or other camera? Meddly supports additional media uploads through the desktop Admin Portal after the event is recorded.



Setting Up the Event

Before you can start recording an event, you need to set it up. Your organization must have at least two Team Members before you can start recording.

How to set up the event:

  1. Go to Camera Screen

    Navigate to the Camera by selecting the Camera tab on the bottom center of the screen.

  2. Join Your Event

    • Click the circular Join Event button on the top center of the Camera screen.

    • Select the event you want to join by clicking the event card.

    • Close the Join Event popup by clicking the same circular button that now displays the event cover image.

  3. Make Sure You're Connected

    You should see a green bar with the word Connected on the top right of the screen.

    Note: If the green Connected bar isn't visible, try leaving the event and rejoining, or close and reopen the app.

  4. Begin Pre-Event Setup

    Press the green Setup Event button in the lower middle of the screen.

    • Hang tight — just setting things up to record. This should only take a minute or two.

    • If you see the Check Setup button, wait a few seconds before pressing it. You may need to press it more than once. Just wait a couple of seconds between each press. Once ready, the record button will appear.

  5. Setup Additional Mobile evices & Other Cameras

    On each additional mobile device, go to the Camera and join the event.

    Note: Don't forget to make sure all mobile devices are properly Connected!



Recording the Event

When the Event Manager starts or stops the recording, they will be prompted to confirm the action. When the Event Manager stops the recording, all additional Connected mobile devices will also stop recording.



Your event has been recorded!

The videos are saved right to your device and automatically uploaded for processing. Once everything's processed, you’ll be all set to start creating Sequences for your event.
