Hi During the February 17 TV Control API conference call, I took an action [1] to review the MediaStream Recording API [2] for its relevance and use in fulfilling the requirements around recording [3] It is possible to see that an TVTuner defined in the TV Control API can "output" via a MediaStream which can then me recorded through the MediaRecorder API. In order to do this, the MediaRecorder constructor requires the mime type of the TVTuner output, so a "readonly attribute DOMString mimeType" attribute should be added to the TVTuner interface. At a period denoted by the timeSlice property, the ondataavailable event handler is trigger, an argument to which is the recorded data. The application implementing this handler would then need to write the capture stream data to a file (perhaps via the File API [4]). The MediaStream Recording API also has the ability to throw a "MediaRecorderErrorEvent" with name=OutOfMemory What this means is that there is no native recording functionality in the device implementing TVManager. Instead one of the applications running on the terminal is the "recording scheduler" (how that application gets and manages data is probably application specific). Note that this requires the UA support some form of "background application". In essence, the requirement mapping table should, for each of the [recording.*] requirements, state "not supported, realized through the webapp and MediaStream Recording API" [1] http://www.w3.org/community/tvapi/track/actions/24 [2] http://www.w3.org/TR/mediastream-recording/ [3] https://www.w3.org/community/tvapi/wiki/Main_Page/Technical_Requirement#Program_Recording_Requirements [4] http://www.w3.org/TR/FileAPI/ [Description: Ericsson]<http://www.ericsson.com/> PAUL HIGGS Technical Solutions Manager Ericsson Inc Ericsson 6 Concourse Parkway, suite 400 Atlanta, GA 30328, United States of America Phone +1 (650) 580-1731 paul.higgs@ericsson.com www.ericsson.com [Description: http://www.ericsson.com/current_campaign]<http://www.ericsson.com/current_campaign> Legal entity: Ericsson AB, registered office in Kista, Sweden.
