Standalone recordings

bbb-playback can be used to create a self-contained recording - a single directory that contains all of the recording media files as well as the playback html and javascript code. To do this, use the following build command:

PUBLIC_URL=. REACT_APP_NO_ROUTER=1 npm run-script build

And then copy all of the files from the bbb-playback build directory and the files from /var/bigbluebutton/published/presentation/<recordid> together into a single directory.

External recordings

bbb-playback can play recordings hosted somewhere other than the default location. To do this, build the bbb-playback with the following options:

REACT_APP_MEDIA_ROOT_URL=/different/relative/path/to/presentation/files npm run-script build

You can also play medias from an external server. Note that you will need to have the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header returned on the medias for that to work.

REACT_APP_MEDIA_ROOT_URL=https://my-media-server.example.com npm run-script build

}
  • [experimental] v0.9, v1.0 and v1.1
