0 byte recording files
See original GitHub issueThis is regarding your great RecordRTC extension 😊🙏
A couple of weeks ago it was working for me, but now it has the following behavior:
Record on Default codec: File is 0 bytes Record on VP8: File is 33 KB Record on VP9: File is 15 KB
This is regardless of how long I leave the recording going (eg a minute). I have no idea what could have changed in the past couple weeks. I tried restarting browser, deleting and reinstalling extension, changing which domain I’m recording, and restarting computer. My other settings are:
- Enable microphone recording
- Record the selected tab
- Full HD
When I deselect “Record the selected tab” it works.
Any ideas on what might be the cause? I tried cloning locally and adding timeSlice like you suggested here, but no change.

Note that “changes being made in the tab” could be an animation, or a playing video, or even a mouse moving around over the tab area.
Muaz, I think that we found the problem. It turns out that the (same) code works as long as there are changes being made in the tab that is being recorded. If the tab never changes (at all), then the extension does not work properly and may produce the 0 bytes file error. Hope this is helpful.
