This processing engine manages raw streams, stitches different streams together, and saves &amp; stores them securely.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Types of Recording Files<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In the recording process, you&#8217;ll get the following types of files:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Individual Participants Stream Recordings: <\/strong>Each user\u2019s stream gets recorded individually, and it\u2019s made available for download in the .MKV format.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Transcoded Re-playable Session:<\/strong> It\u2019s a form of composite video file in the .MP4 format. Transcoding is a subscription-based service. If a moderator has recorded multiple video sessions, you can access multiple .MP4 files for every recorded segment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Audio-only Recording<\/strong>: Users can record, store, retrieve and delete voice calls and protect recordings with encryption.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong><u>Server-side or Client-side Recording: What You Should Choose?<\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While selecting the suitable recording feature, you\u2019ll need to choose between the server-side and Client-side recording:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Client-side Recording:<\/strong> In this type of recording, videos are recorded locally and then processed before uploading to the servers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Server-side Recording:<\/strong>\u00a0 In this case, a WebRTC session gets terminated over the severs at both ends. Media streams are routed to the receiving end. At the same time, decoded media streams are sent for post-processing and recording.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To know more about the server-side and client-side recording, readout our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enablex.io\/insights\/server-side-or-client-side-recording\/#:~:text=For%20server%2Dside%20recording%2C%20the,to%20post%2Dprocessing%20and%20recording.\">blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Why EnableX Audio-Video Recording Feature is A Class Apart <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Some of the reasons EnableX\u2019s recording features are \u00a0superior to other CPaaS solutions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>Bandwidth Optimisation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>EnableX\u2019s intelligent orchestration layer not only takes care of the provisioning problem but also optimises it based on past usage and current request patterns. It then predicts the optimal resource requirement based on the data analysis.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>Security<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A CPaaS platform brings economy of scale by providing off-the-shelf API for developers using a common shared infrastructure. But this also poses an additional challenge for security and compliance. EnableX has built-in security features to ensure safe access to your recorded files.\u00a0 Also, all recorded files are end-to-end encrypted with a customer secret key.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>Video Watermarking<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>EnableX allows you to record video sessions and add a watermark to your recorded video files by uploading an image file on the platform. Thus, it helps in branding and prevents unauthorised use of your recorded videos.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>Auto-recording And Storage<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With its auto-start feature, EnableX allows your video meetings to be automatically recorded once the session starts. Also, the recorded files are stored at your preferred location, such as SCP, AWS S3 bucket, Google Drive, Azure Blob Storage or FTP\/SFTP, which is critical for privacy and regulatory compliances.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>EnableX offers a host of features that make it an excellent choice for recording purposes:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.enablex.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Recording-work-flow-Images-02.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2028\" src=\"https:\/\/www.enablex.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Recording-work-flow-Images-02.webp\" alt=\"video Recording work flow Images-02\" width=\"768\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.enablex.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Recording-work-flow-Images-02.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.enablex.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Recording-work-flow-Images-02-300x156.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To know more about how to enable video watermarking on recorded files, click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enablex.io\/insights\/video-api-and-sdk-recording-and-video-watermarking\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Final Words <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Video meetings have changed the way we work and conduct business.
