UXCam, by default, video records all sessions. Event-triggered video recording allows you to only capture the videos that are most important to you.

The session metadata & timeline information will still be captured, even if the session isn’t set to track with video recording. 

Event-triggered video-recording conditions are specific to each application, henceforth you’ll set up a separate set of conditions for each app. This will give you the freedom to customize your conditions and prioritize sessions to be recorded based on your specific use case.

Default Video Recording Policy 

When UXCam is first integrated into your application, the recording policy is set to video record all sessions.

When you click on “Add New Rule”, it shows a variety of video recording options. 

Advanced Video Recording Policy

• Video Quality: This setting defines the video quality of the recording. There are 4 levels of video recording quality  (Ultra Low, Very Low, Low, High).  
• Max. videos to record per day: This allows you to set the number of videos to be recorded in a day (following UTC time).
• Max. videos to record per device: This allows you to set the number of videos to record per device. Once the total videos defined here are recorded, only meta-sessions will be recorded.
• Number of Offline videos per device: This allows you to set the number of videos to record when the device is Offline. The video is uploaded when the user uses the app with a valid connectivity. You can filter offline sessions on the dashboard, by clicking on Offline Sessions -> Yes.
• Turn off auto-detection on screens: UXCam automatically detects the screen. If you have internal screens that you do not want to detect, please select them on this list. 

Events for triggering the video recording

Click on “Add New Rule”, to see the various triggers for the video recording options. 

The following list explains the various video recording triggers:

• Screen Visited: The video is uploaded only if the user visits the select screens on the app. When making changes to specific screens, it can be helpful to see how users interact with the changes, this setting enables you to ensure recording those sessions.
  
  
• Events: The video will only be uploaded if the user performs a certain event on the app. When focusing on a specific business process, which you made an event for, it is useful to have record videos for that event.
  
  
• Crashed: The video will only be uploaded if the app crashed. This allows developers to easily reproduce bugs & crashes, which saves time & cost.
  
  
• Number of Interactions: The video is uploaded only if the user has performed selected numbers of touch (tap, swipe, scroll) interactions.
  
  
• Duration: The video is uploaded only if the app sessions are longer/shorter than a certain period.
  

•  Country: The video is recorded for selected countries only.

• Date: The video was recorded during the selected dates.

• App Version: The video is recorded for selected app versions.

• SDK Version: The video is recorded for selected SDK versions.

• OS Version: The video is recorded for selected OS versions.

• Model: The video is recorded for selected device models.

Video Upload Policy

The video upload policy allows the configuration of video upload on Wifi or Cellular network.

If the video is not uploaded because of the condition set above, the video will be stored on the device. The SDK will upload the videos on the next run of the app.
