Reproducing the Issue
From JAM:
- The below error is received when doing a screen capture in Jam.
- A similar error is received when capturing a Show-Me video.
From BizX:
- The only available option is to upload a file.
Cause
Per engineering team, since browsers are EOL-ing (End-of-Life) support for applets, we have deprecated applet-based recorders and instead will be looking on plugin-based approach. Since it require big engineering effort for this enhancement, customers are allowed to upload videos recorded with 3rd party tools. There is no specific dates on this per engineering team.
Resolution
Java plugin was discontinued for some browsers and, besides it, industry is moving away from using java applets (technology in which the recording function were based). Therefore, in order to avoid any possible security risks regarding the deprecated plugin, SuccessFactors Engineering Team has disabled the recording function.
