     -   Answers copied into the Q&A section, possibly with linked timestamps
 
 
+#### Process for reviewing and trimming the videos
+
+Helper function:
+
+-   emacsconf-extract-publish-qa (call with C-u in order to specify a time for truncating the video)
+
+Skim the transcript and the videos to see if anything needs to be removed, and which video to use
+
+BigBlueButton gives us the webcams and audio as one video
+(\`&#x2013;bbb-webcams.webm\`) and the screenshare (if any) as another video
+(\`&#x2013;bbb-deskshare.webm\`). If the speaker shared their screen, we can
+focus on that instead of their webcam. The following ffmpeg command
+combines the audio from the webcams (which has been previously
+extracted into a separate file, \`&#x2013;bbb-webcams.opus\`) with the video
+from the screenshare.
+
+ffmpeg -i example&#x2013;bbb-webcams.opus -i example&#x2013;bbb-deskshare.webm -c copy example&#x2013;answers.webm
+
+We also want to check if people accidentally shared sensitive
+information on their screen, or if anyone said something that they
+might not have said if they remembered that thethe Q&A videos will be
+shared after the talk. Sometimes there&rsquo;s some time before we get
+around to closing the meeting at the end of the Q&A. Usually, a quick
+read of the transcript will show anything that needs to be trimmed.
+Here&rsquo;s how to stop the recording at a specified time:
+
+ffmpeg -i input.webm -to hh:mm:ss -c copy output.webm
+
+Cutting out stuff from the middle of a recording is slightly more
+complicated. It might be easier to use a nonlinear video editor such
+as kdenlive to edit the video. If you want to use ffmpeg, using
+filters to select the frames and reencode the video will probably work
+out better than splitting the file into multiple parts and then
+concatenating them without reencoding, as the latter tends to need to
+be split on keyframes. Here&rsquo;s a sample command based on this
+[StackOverflow](<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64866231/remove-a-section-from-the-middle-of-a-video-without-concat>) answer that removes the section between 15 seconds and
+45 seconds:
+
+ffmpeg -i input.webm \\
+	-vf  &ldquo;select=&rsquo;not(between(t,15,45))&rsquo;,  setpts=N/FRAME\_RATE/TB&rdquo; \\
+	-af &ldquo;aselect=&rsquo;not(between(t,15,45))&rsquo;, asetpts=N/SR/TB&rdquo; \\
+	output.webm
+
+Alternatively, you can let us know what parts needs to be trimmed, and
+we can figure that part out.

 -   [X] Having the NO\_NEWS / WAITING\_FOR\_PREREC contrast from the start of `conf.org` might have made it easier for us to ping speakers who were late to the party this year.  Rather than sending the personalised 10 days prior to the conference, we might have sent it a week after the submission of the anticipated scheduled (where we ask speakers if their allocated time is okay, based on their availability).
