## Start and Stop Streaming and Recording


1. Tap **Set for Streaming** in the mobile app.  

   ![Set for Streaming option ](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/03fa1014-cf0e-4191-ba80-50d24eef65d4/38509ef4-f6dc-4570-9827-2e1ccc3ac66b/SET%20FOR%20STREAMING.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=619a691b811d80da0963e8e20e8ec452cc877db784029aaf19fd799639e5a142&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =300x574")

3. In LearningSpace, the mobile camera stream will appear in the assigned room’s window ([Recording](/doc/recording-module-aRoJ6T1EhN), [Center Overview](/doc/center-overview-co-v7lQtKvyKo)). Go to the [Single Room View](/doc/single-room-view-srv-1fth0IochP) to preview the room you wish to record in.

6. When **stopping the recording** in LearningSpace, the mobile app will reflect the **recording stop**.  
7. When the mobile camera is **not yet in streaming state,** the ***‘Camera not ready for streaming’*** error message is displayed on the [Center Overview ](/doc/center-overview-co-YjriCVVct7)(CO) and [Single Room View](/doc/single-room-view-PjnKvAlGex) (SRV), and in the [Camera Settings ](/doc/cameras-tab-8RMymSnjpT)(System manager).

:::warning
Once a mobile camera is set up, **reduce the device's brightness** to conserve battery power and keep it as cool as possible. **Turn off automatic brightness adjustment** to prevent automatic reversion. 

:::

## Post-Processing Time of Mobile Recordings


:::warning
 IMPORTANT: The processing time for certain videos may differ from the normal processing time. 

:::

If there is **no change in stream resolution** during a mobile recording, post-processing takes the **same amount** **of time** as for a video recorded with network cameras.

**Stream resolution** may change during recording if the **mobile device's bandwidth is unstable**. Due to adaptive streaming, the video stream's resolution **dynamically adjusts** based on available bandwidth. In other words, when the **internet connection slows down**, the streaming player automatically drops the resolution to keep the video playing smoothly.

If the video stream is recorded at different resolutions, **transcoding** is required during post-processing in LearningSpace, **increasing post-processing time** (*average: 1.5x the video length*). 


:::info
[**Privacy mode**](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/privacy-mode-for-standardized-patients-sps-Xw3JbxdOuN?q=privacy%20mode) is currently **not supported** for mobile cameras.
