I guess you want to see a link where you can download the recorded video? You can also right-click the video and save it from there.

Closing because there's no further feedback.

I have similar question. How to save video? (not upload to server) When user stops recording then its able to click on button "save to disk". Any ideas? Thank you!

[thijstriemstra]

@clavish remember it's already saved to disk in a temporary location.

That being said, use this to show a save as dialog when the user finished recording for example:

// user completed recording and stream is available
player.on('finishRecord', function()
{
    player.recorder.engine.engine.save({
        // file extension will be automatically added
        video: 'video-file-name',
        // audio: 'audio-file-name'
    });
});

This is not a really nice API so I'll re-open this ticket and add something better.

I extended a sample to offer a download option. I will add to this soon

@thijstriemstra thank you, works great now 👍

[thijstriemstra]

thanks for the feedback @clavish. In upcoming 1.5.1 it should be as simple as player.recorder.saveAs(nameObj), see https://github.com/collab-project/videojs-record#save-data.
