Settings

Audio devices

Select your preferred microphone input device from the dropdown in Settings. MeetingDebrief lists all available audio input devices on your system. If you connect a new device, it appears in the list automatically.

Toggle System audio to enable or disable capturing audio output from your computer during recordings.

Model management

The models section displays all available transcription and summarization models. For each model you can:

• Download: download a model you have not yet installed.
• Select: set the model as your active transcription or summarization model.
• Delete: remove a downloaded model to free disk space.

Switching models does not affect existing transcripts or summaries.

Keyboard shortcuts

Customize the global keyboard shortcut used to toggle the overlay window. The default shortcut is CmdOrCtrl+Shift+R. Click the shortcut field and press your preferred key combination to change it.

Automation

Two automation options control what happens after a recording stops:

• Auto-transcribe: automatically start transcription when a recording finishes.
• Auto-summarize: automatically generate a summary after transcription completes, using your default template.

Both options are independent. You can enable auto-transcribe without auto-summarize, or both together.

Preferences

• Keep audio files: when disabled, MeetingDebrief deletes the audio recording after transcription completes. Enable this to retain audio files alongside transcripts.
• 24-hour time format: display timestamps in 24-hour format instead of AM/PM.

Re-run setup wizard

Click this button to restart the initial setup process. Useful for reconfiguring permissions or re-downloading models. Your existing sessions and data are not affected.
