How We Set Up a Recording Workflow for Dwarves Office Hours

There are many interesting topics shared in the Office Hours of Dwarves Foundation, and it would be a pity if anyone missed them. Moreover, we want to share our findings with the community and encourage learning within our team. Therefore, we have introduced a recording workflow to store all the OGIF content in two forms: video and audio.

Before diving into the workflow, we ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

• Installed OBS Studio on our laptop.
• Installed Craig Bot to record the audio.

This memo is essentially a playbook and recipe on how to record the Discord events.

Record Video and Stream on YouTube

• We set up the recording screen on OBS as shown in the image below:
  • We choose the window to record.
  • We set up streaming mode.
  • We set up the audio input (Mute the Mic/Aux).

• When the Ogif starts, we start recording on OBS and stream on YouTube.
• When the Ogif ends, we stop the recording and save it.
• Then, we split the recording by individual session.

Record Audio in the Background and Transcript

Craig Bot is used to record audio in the background and split segments by user for AI transcription.

• We invite the Craig Bot into the Dwarves Foundation server. If the bot is already in the server, this step can be skipped.
• We invite the Craig Bot to the open voice channel to start recording by using the command /join.

• After the Ogif ends, we stop the recording and save the audio file.
• Then, we use ChatGPT-4 to transcribe the recording and split it into parts, similar to the video segments.
