Not all media players and editors support all recording formats, such as the more modern MP4-
fragmented format. To playback MOV files created by Pearl-2, we recommend using a newer
media player.
Record a channel
Each channel has a configuration page in the Admin panel where you can start and stop recording, as well as
configure recording settings for the channel.
You can also start and stop recording from the channel view using the touch screen on Pearl-2 (see Record a
channel using the touch screen) and using Epiphan Live (see Control streaming and recording).
The channel number turns red to indicate it is recording. If the system runs out of storage space, the oldest
recorded file is deleted to make room for the new recording.
