I spoke with GTM support and they indicated this is a known issue and there is no ETA for a resolution. They directed me to change file extension or utilize cloud recording as a band-aide until this is resolved.

    I am unable to convert the recording! I select and click convert. It says "Transcoder failed to initialise". wmv is available but it is low quality. I need the mp4

        Hilary Lustig  Could you specify what operating system you're working with GoToMeeting on, and if you were screen sharing during the live broadcast?
