It seems that <a href="https://zoom.us/">zoom</a> allows relatively nice recordings. Start a new meeting (alone), share your screen with your presentation, and click on "... more' then "Record". Do your presentation. At the end, stop/leave the meeting, a mp4 file will be created. It is very nicely compressed and of decent quality. Of course, any other way to record your presentation is accepted. </div><div><br></div><div>You can send me the file via <a href="https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16Pl7E5-JufqZWaXpa_PX_5tWqDjAmt-Z?usp=sharing">this google drive link</a> or by any other means. </div><div><br></div><div>If you need to edit your video, I tried <a href="https://shotcut.org/">shotcut</a>, but I am sure that other software may be used (iMovie is nice but the size of the final mp4 file is very large). With shotcut, the saved file with default settings is large (much larger than the default zoom). I play a bit with the parameters and use the following: increase CRF, GOP to 249, BFrame 8, codec H265, mono audio, software encoder (not hardware). The final quality is not ideal (less than initial zoom), but the file size is decent. </div><div><br></div><div><div><img src="cid:ii_kes3hrcm2" alt="Opengate meeting virtual 2020 - agenda - v3-crop.png" width="542" height="207"><br></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Aug 31, 2020 at 9:28 AM David Sarrut <<a href="mailto:David.Sarrut@creatis.insa-lyon.fr">David.Sarrut@creatis.insa-lyon.fr</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Dear all,<br><div><br></div><div>here is, as attached pdf, a (slightly) updated version of the agenda. </div><div><br></div><div>For speakers, remember: presentations must be recorded and will be streamed ; questions will be live.

Usually, such meetings are organized two times a year and regroup presentations from various teams working with and/or for Gate. It is a great opportunity to casually exchange and discuss scientific and technical questions related to Gate simulations in medical physics. The meeting will be remotely managed via videoconferencing, free and open to everyone. <br><br>We plan 15 presentations within time slots of 20 min (10-15 min talk + 5-10 questions). In order to prepare the program, and if you want to present, could you please send me by email the title of your presentation (+ 2-3 lines of description) so that I can create the program, <b>before 20th July</b>. You will find below examples of previous meetings with associated presentations (usually we split the program with a session on imaging and another one on dosimetry). Once the program will be set, we will ask all presenters to record their talk in a video (for example with the audio recorder capability in PowerPoint or any other means). More details on that will be given later. <br><br>We require that every person that plans to participate <b>register</b> on the following website: <a href="https://indico.in2p3.fr/event/21826" target="_blank">https://indico.in2p3.fr/event/21826</a>.
