Recording video file frame rate.
Will only have effect if outputMode is set to COMPOSED or COMPOSED_QUICK_START and hasVideo is set to true. For INDIVIDUAL all individual video files will have the native frame rate of the published stream.

Default to 25

Whether or not to record audio. Cannot be set to false at the same time as hasVideo

Default to true

Whether or not to record video. Cannot be set to false at the same time as hasAudio

Default to true

Whether to ignore failed streams or not when starting the recording. This property only applies if outputMode is set to INDIVIDUAL. For this type of recordings, when calling startRecording by default all the streams available at the moment the recording process starts must be healthy and properly sending media. If some stream that should be sending media is broken, then the recording process fails after a 10s timeout. In this way your application is notified that some stream is not being recorded, so it can retry the process again.

But you can disable this rollback behavior and simply ignore any failed stream, which will be susceptible to be recorded in the future if media starts flowing as expected at any point. The downside of this behavior is that you will have no guarantee that all streams present at the beginning of a recording are actually being recorded.

Default to false

This feature is part of OpenVidu PRO and ENTERPRISE editions
