Moves hotwording checkbox to new ‘Voice’ section. Here is the log message:Ĭreates new chrome:settings section, ‘Voice’. In coming weeks, you will see a dedicated “Voice” section in Chrome settings. Dedicated “Voice” Section in SettingsĪnother little piece of news for you. This may be a security feature, or may be something else. When you are connecting to my computer from yours and hit Record, the video is recorded and stored on my computer, not yours. Second, the place where the video is stored. My first concern is this line from the log: ” This will be used to record sequences of video frames for real-world sessions, for performance-evaluation purposes.” Does this mean that this is not a prime time feature that they are planning to roll out, but a debugging tool to analyze performance? Since live playback is not a requirement, performance of the implementation is not a priority.

The client can save recorded sequences out to files on disk. Video recording allows sequences of frames to be recorded and delivered to the client for performance-evaluation purposes. See /386853002 for the client part of this.Īnd yes, I went to the bug that they are use to track the client side of this:Īdd a Record button to the web-app if the host supports video recording.

Clients seeing this capability can send “video-recorder” extension messages to the host to start and stop recording, and to fetch the next recorded frame.įrames are encoded to VideoPackets using the “verbatim” encoder, and must then be serialized and Base-64 encoded for transmission via the extension message protocol. If the host is run with a video-recording buffer size specified then it will advertise a videoRecorder capability to clients. Nevertheless, most do not bother to look at the settings in the Remote Desktop Client to customize and improve the performance when working remotely. Many of us have been doing this for too long to remember. This will be used to record sequences of video frames for real-world sessions, for performance-evaluation purposes. Many people use Remote Desktop to access Windows Desktops every day. Add video frame recording capability to Chromoting hosts.
