Manual Recording
After you have configured the Record service for manual recording and have enabled recording, select
Manual Recording from the Record services menu. A video player opens with additional controls to stop and
start the recording. You can also enter the filename as it will appear in the archive while the video player is
open. The maximum supported manual recording is three hours.
If you disable a live service that is being recorded, the record service will generate an
error. You must stop the current record service, and then start and stop a second
record service to clear the error. Once the error is cleared, the record service should
function normally again. This error also occurs if you refresh your browser during a
Manual Recording.
The file name is not the name of the file that will be recorded, but it is the name of the
recording as displayed in the archive.
