Note: This API (CreateRecord) is used to store recorded files on the VOD platform. If you want to use the recording feature, you need to activate VOD Service first. When recording files are stored, the charges (including charges for storage and downstream playback traffic) are calculated with VOD billing method. Note: API calling timeout should be greater than 3 seconds, because retries within 3 seconds and frequent calls may lead to duplicate recording tasks.
Recording rules
(1) The recording task starts at the preset time and ends when the LVB ends
(2) The recording is fragmented by time, and the longest fragment time is 0.5 hour
(3) The recording is stopped and a fragment is generated in case of a stream interruption
A new fragment recording task is started after the stream is resumed to repeat the preceding steps until the entire recording is completed
