This guide walks you through how to upload recordings to your event.

Tip: Benefits of uploading recordings include:

  • Polished versions: Download recordings, edit them professionally, and re-upload the enhanced versions.
  • Supplementary materials: Upload extra video content or streams that couldn't be recorded live.
  • Simulive segments: Schedule videos from your recordings or uploads to play automatically at specific times on Stages or Sessions. You can also upload a video directly through the Schedule settings.

To upload a recording:

  1. Go to the Event Dashboard > Recordings (or to Event Dashboard > More > Recordings if your event hasn't ended yet)
  2. Click Upload recording.


  3. In the Upload recording window, choose a file from your desktop or simply drag and drop it into the upload window.
    Note: We support video files in the MP4 format, with a maximum size of 5GB and a duration of up to 10 hours.
  4. Under Upload to, select My Uploads (not to have the video associate with any specific event area) or an associated Stage or Session.
  5. Under Recording name, enter a descriptive name for the recording to help attendees identify the content easily.   
  6. Once ready, click Upload.
    Note: Depending on the size of the file it may take some time for the recording to upload and process.

Once the video file is uploaded it will appear on the Recordings page: 

  • Original Recordings tab: Videos associated with a Stage or Session are listed here.
  • My Uploads tab: Videos not associated with any specific segments are listed here.
  • Simulive badge: Recordings and uploads linked to a schedule segment are marked with the Simulive badge.

You will be able to change the uploaded recording name, add the description, create cuts, download or delete it, as well as publish/unpublish it to the Replay area. To learn more about managing recordings refer to our guide on Accessing recordings.
