robotframework-appiumlibrary Capture Screen recording for more that 10 mins

Hi,

We need to capture video for flow on ios/android which is more than 10 minutes. Currently, Start screen recording captures video for max 10 mins on ios and 3 minutes on android.

Please help suggest solution for the same.

Hi @FWDQK , for this concern regarding the screen recording time limitations.

The limitation is strictly implemented by appium itself, meaning we just implemented the max time as allowed by appium. See https://github.com/appium/python-client/blob/master/appium/webdriver/extensions/screen_record.py#L94

What we could possibly implement to bridge the gap here is by stitching video outputs by monitoring whether the maximum time has been reached and starting a new video recording, though, this is just my working theory.

Should this be possible the implementation will take some time.

Due to lack of activity I am closing this ticket. If you feel this is still relevant please open a new one.

Note also that AppiumLibrary is currently going through some revisions to make it useful and compatible with current tools. If you want to see what we have planned review the milestones or reach out to the current maintainers.
