Short version:
As a meeting organiser, you will be able to set a meeting to auto-record by ticking the “Record automatically” setting from your Meeting Options page. This option can be enabled for a single meeting occurrence or for a series. The meeting will automatically start recording after the first participant joins the meeting. Due mid-July.
Details:
This update will allow meetings to automatically start recording if they are set to auto-record in meeting options.
This feature will be available in meetings if the meeting organiser can record meetings and their organisation has their RecordingStorageMode set to “OneDriveForBusiness” as well as “Stream”, and the meeting organiser is not an A1 user. Let me put this another way, if you work for an organisation that lets you records meeting, and you see those meetings in your OneDrive, the files area of a channel, or Stream you’ll probably get this feature.

The meeting initiator and meeting organiser will both have owner rights to the recording:
