We are using the azure communication service and recording the video. We wanted to implement the time stamp and our logo in the video recorded by azure communication service. Is there any way to achieve it ?

Hi @Gowtham Gopal and thank you for reaching out.

As you know, the call recording is still in the public preview, and at the moment there is nothing in ACS call recording feature that can help you to add a logo and a timestamp into the recording.

That said, if you still wish to accomplish that, you can add the logo into the recording later after you download it by using other technologies. For example:

• You can use Azure Media Services media-services-overview to add the overlay image, and we have some code examples depending on your development language here Encoding_H264_OverlayImage and here Encoding_OverlayImage
• You can be using ffmpeg to add the overlay. You can find some samples here ffmpeg-add-logo-video

I will take this request to the product group to consider it.

Thank you for your feedback.
