Support for adding delay before starting a recording

[stonebeach514]

Hi. I tried a way to delay video-only recording but couldn't.I want to delay recording video-only by 5 seconds.I knew I would edit the record-toggle.js if it was audio only . Which file do you edit for video only recoeding?

I knew I would edit the record-toggle.js if it was audio only .

What line would you edit?

[stonebeach514]

I know that if the delay is audio only, edit line 72 of recorde-toggle.js as follows .

handleClick(event) {
    let recorder = this.player_.record();
    if (!recorder.isRecording()) {
        recorder.start();
    } else {
        recorder.stop();
    }
}

But I don't know where to edit for video-only :'-(

What is your use-case for this? Trying to understand why you'd need this.

I assume he wants to have a 5-second timer before the recording starts.

@stonebeach514 I did the same for the videojs.record.js file in the dist folder. You can check out #348

@thijstriemstra In saying that, if we edit the src file, should we re-build it? Apologies I'm fairly new to javascript! :(
