Recording Mode Options

Standard recordings record the public text chat conversations, the closed captioning text, the audio conversations and the URLs for the pages shown in the co-browser. Therefore when the recording is viewed an Internet connection is required to display the recorded URLs.

Optionally if the Image recording mode option is selected, when a recording is started, the content displayed in the co-browser will be saved in JPG image files. Therefore when recordings created in this manner are viewed an Internet Connection is not required. The image content however will not be accessible for screen reader users.

Converting existing standard recordings

Standard recordings can be converted to use JPG files for the reordered URLs by using the free RecordingConverter utility. The recording can be viewed standalone without needing an Internet connection. The image content however will not be accessible for screen reader users.
