Have Way For Users To View Their Active Recordings

Is it possible to implemented a way for users to view their live recordings made via Device Captures.
We will occasionally have issues where the video shows as recording, but the presenter has the wrong screen recording or an AV issue stops the video input from working. So, is there a way for users to view active recordings so that they could double check to see if everything is recording as they expect?
At the moment, admins can view the room to confirm this, but that is not always feasible, especially with lots of recordings happening.
This does not apply to Universal or Browser captures.

Hi Joel David Smith - we will absolutely keep this in mind and see how we can make improvements!
In the meantime, there are a couple of ways that you can give instructors the ability to monitor device captures. Device Captures can be monitored remotely in 2 different ways, by using Universal Capture: Device or Universal Capture: Online (which are different from the Universal Capture software). Essentially what you can do is create a desktop shortcut on the computer in the room with the device for instructors to quick-access the Universal Capture UI for the Pro or Pod that's in the room. They will be able to both monitor and control the recording that's taking place. Here's some documentation that may be helpful: https://support.echo360.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035406051-EchoVideo-Universal-Capture-for-Admins
