Recorded Conferences1. —these conferences have completed and are ready to play and download. If you see the icon ,
it means that the conference is still being processed, so not all of the outputs are available just yet.
Live Conferences2. —these are happening now and can be watched live if there is a Play icon. If not, you will have to wait
until after the conference has finished and processed to watch the conference from the Recorded Conferences List.
