Video recording with a webcam

VIMP Enterprise and VIMP Campus enable you to record and upload videos, audios and images directly with your webcam.

Therefore, click the “Webcam” tab within the upload page. Your browser will ask you for permission to automatically detect your webcam. If the detection was successful, you can start recording.

Fill in the required form fields after you finished your recording and transfer the stream to the server. After the stream has been uploaded you can submit the form by clicking the “Upload” button.

The video will be transcoded into the defined web formats automatically and will be available in VIMP afterwards.

As of VIMP version 5.7, you can transfer webcam recordings to the server while they are being recorded. To do this, select the "Webcam Stream Recording" tab and start your recording. This new function allows you to make longer and more computationally intensive recordings via webcam

Please note that webcam recording is available for Google Chrome only currently. Furthermore, you’ll need a SSL certificate for your VIMP domain (https://).
