Just to set expectations, after reading your requirements, this sample code generates primarily 2 seperate files. 1 YUV420 video file. 1 PCM audio file. The video file is in raw format, and it does not have audio. If you are trying to join meeting which are external to your tenant, you will need to publish your General App / Meeting SDK. If you are just joining internal meetings, you do not need to publish your application. You will need to mux the audio and video yourself. ---
