Keep Tab Focused

Ensuring App Focus During Recording

To ensure a smooth recording experience, it is important to keep the SquadCast tab active and focused during your recording session. Here are some key points to remember:

  1. Importance of Keeping the App Focused:

    • Keeping the SquadCast tab active ensures that the browser does not limit or restrict available resources.
    • Switching between tabs or windows during a recording session can lead to issues such as dropped frames and other recording inconsistencies.
  2. Notifications:

    • You may receive a notification if you or another participant does not have the app focused during recording.
    • This is to remind you to keep the SquadCast tab active for optimal recording performance.
  3. Firefox Specifics:

    • On Firefox, browser security settings require the app to be focused to start the recording.
    • If a participant using Firefox does not have the app focused when the recording begins, they will see an alert saying "Recording Delayed."
    • This alert indicates that the recording was started later than the other participants' recordings.
    • Once the participant focuses on the SquadCast tab, the recording will start, but the warning will remain to indicate the offset start time.
  4. Warnings for Participants:

    • Each guest will see their own warning if the app is not focused.
    • The host will see all guest warnings.
    • Other guests will not see the host's warnings.

By keeping the SquadCast tab active and avoiding switching between tabs or windows, you can ensure a higher-quality recording with fewer issues.
