Features Request : Is it possible to record the video streams in each room as separate folder? #64

Closed TechRova closed 4 years ago

TechRova commented 4 years ago

I need recording of call

Like let the room name is BusinessCall

I need to store the video streams screen shares like

Create folder named BusinessCall Save videos as User1.mp4 User2.mp4 User3.mp4 Audiouser.mp4 Screenshare.mp4 Chats.json

Is that possible?

Or guide me to implement on my own?

Zipcall runs in the browser. It's a website.

Websites don't have direct access to the file system and therefore can't create files or folders. Best they can do is offer a download for a single file or archive.

Recording the video streams is also not feasable without files system access.

So no, there's no way we can implement what you are trying to do.

I theory you might be able to use something like puppeteer to extract the different video streams and save them to different files, but that would be a lot of work and far from convenient...

So the Video streams dont to the hosted server . Just directly goes to the users. The server just as a guide only ?

Am I right ?

Yes, that is what 'decentralized' means in this case. Thw video is transmitted peer-to-peer, the server only manages the rooms :)

Ohh ok . Can you guide me to catch this streams by joining as another user in the room and record them ... pls

Have you used puppeteer or selenium before? If not, you should become familiar with one of them before attempting this.

For now, the easiest solution would be to use a software like OBS and record the different sections of the webpage :)

Do Zipcall support adaptive streaming ?

Chaphasilor commented 4 years ago

It supports WebRTC auto-scaling, if that's what you want to know...

why the variables names and function names in /public/js/landing.js are just single alphabets ? why dont they have proper names ?

It's generated/minified code. You'd have to ask @ianramzy how it ended up there...

However, this doesn't really have much to do with your issue anymore, does it?
If not, I'd like to close this issue :)

Yep its minified at @TechRova
