frontend: Improvements on MiniVideoRecorder

Open ArturoManzoli opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Current behaviour

  1. When one Mini VIdeo Recorder starts processing its own video, the other instances get the 'processing state' animation as well.
  2. Each Mini Video Recorder can only control one stream.

Expected or desired behaviour

  1. The processing visual feedback should be independent for each stream or at least, the animation should not cover the video recording duration on the widgets that are currently not processing any video.
  2. One single Mini Video Recorder should be capable of controlling more than one stream. On the stream selection dialog, user could have checkboxes to choose more than one stream to be recorder at the same time.

Prerequisites

Some ideas from a recent discussion with @ArturoManzoli and @rafaellehmkuhl, building stream status functionality (idea 3 from #801) into an advanced version of the recorder widget:

The concept was to enable multiple different recorders (e.g. on-camera, on-vehicle, topside) to be configured independently for a group of streams, then the recording widget could control that full group with a single click for record/stop, while also highlighting any issues being experienced, and potentially tracking the number of snapshots that have been taken for a given stream.

Users with multiple streams could choose to have all of them managed by a single recorder widget (the default behaviour), or have multiple independent groups managed by separate recorder widgets.
