Common problems and solutions

Can I turn any webinar into a podcast?

It works especially well for interview-style webinars, panels, and expert conversations because the format is already similar to a podcast.

Should I publish the webinar video or extract the audio?

You can do either. You can upload the webinar recording as an episode, or detach the audio from the recording if you want to publish an audio-only podcast.

Why does local recording matter when repurposing webinars?

Local recording captures each speaker's audio and video directly on their device. This gives you a higher-quality recording that isn't affected by someone's bad internet connection, which is especially important if you plan to edit or extract the audio later.
