Recording And Capture Last

Recording controls live on the stream page header.

Goal​

You are done when you can:

  • record continuously, and
  • capture a last-5s/30s/1m clip when needed.

Know The Two Recording Modes​

  • Continuous recording: you click Record, it records until you click Stop.
  • Capture-last clips: you click a 5s/30s/1m button and it saves the most recent window.

Capture-last requires the per-stream shadow recorder to be enabled.

Continuous Recording (Record Until You Stop)​

Use when you want a longer capture.

  1. Open the stream.
  2. In the header, select a recording source.
    • multiplex
    • raw
    • undistorted
    • pipeline output
  3. Click Record.
  4. Click Stop to end.

What to pick as a recording source:

  • Use the raw stream output when you want the clean camera feed.
  • Use a pipeline output when you want overlays or a processed view saved in the clip.
  • Use undistorted when you want the calibrated corrected image path.

Capture-Last Clips​

Capture-last buttons (5s/30s/1m) require the per-stream shadow recorder.

  1. Open the stream.
  2. Go to the Stream tab.
  3. Enable Shadow recorder.
  4. Click Apply stream settings (stream restarts).

After this, the capture-last buttons should work.

IMU Sidecars​

Continuous recording can also capture IMU data alongside the media file.

Enable Include IMU in the recording settings when you want sensor playback/debugging tied to that recording.

Verify​

  1. Use capture-last.
  2. Confirm a new media asset appears.
  3. Download it from OS > Media.

Common Issues​

  • Capture-last empty: shadow recorder is off.
  • Capture-last disabled while recording: stop continuous recording and try again.

If you do not see any media assets after capturing:

  1. Confirm the capture-last action actually completed.
  2. Confirm you are looking in OS > Media on the same device.
  3. Check Alerts for storage or write errors.
