Teams meeting recording is owned by the first person who joins the call, NOT the meeting organizer. Bug?

Hello,

I have a recurring meeting in which I am the meeting organizer. Recently, I enabled the "Automatically Record" option since I'm not able to attend the meetings live. These recordings are posting directly to the non-channel meeting chat, but I'm not able to remove them from the chat. When I go to the location of the recording, its address is on a personal drive of one of my colleagues (whoever joined first).

Shouldn't I/the organizers be the only ones who own the recording? Why does it default to the first person on the call?

    This is a good workaround, but not always feasable. Especially when you have multiple meetings (training) going on during a D365 implementation! You can't make people wait that long in the lobby. Microsoft needs to fix this. Zoom can do it.

    Yeah, I've been there. I ask IT to transfer ownership of video to me when that happens. Or have a co-organizer who I know will transfer the ownership to me, usually it's the owner of the project who knows that I as project manager have to own the video.

    Hi! Yes, but I’m not always able to attend the meetings and therefore wouldn’t be there to allow entry to those waiting in lobby.

    I have thought about that but sometimes I am not able to get to the meeting but I have to do the recaps. So this is not always a possibility for me
