Cloud Recording Quality
To ensure maximum reliability and data security, both conference-style recordings and isolated track recordings are automatically captured and stored server-side in the cloud. This approach guarantees that even if something unexpected occurs during your session, your valuable data remains safe and accessible.
-
Conference Recordings: Captures a full conference-style session as a single file, with video output at a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 at variable frame rates, commonly 30 fps. The video is encoded in H.264 at 5 Mbps, and the audio in AAC at 96 kbps, all within the MP4 container format.
-
Isolated Track Recordings: Generates separate video and audio tracks for each participant, producing individual
.webm
files for video and audio. These raw.webm
files may require post-processing to be playable. The video resolution and frame rate are variable and depend on the participant’s camera capabilities, typically encoded in VP8 for video and Opus for audio.
