Recording lifecycle previously relied exclusively on the MinIO storage-hook
endpoint to transition from STOPPED to SAVED, which made the system dependent
on MinIO bucket notifications and lifecycle configuration. Introduce support
for LiveKit egress_ended webhook (EGRESS_COMPLETE, EGRESS_LIMIT_REACHED) as
an alternative finalization mechanism for self-hosted deployments that do
not use MinIO / S3 hooks.
Change behavior of existing configuation RECORDING_STORAGE_EVENT_ENABLE.
When the LiveKit mechanism is enabled (RECORDING_STORAGE_EVENT_ENABLE=False),
RecordingEventsService.handle_complete is triggered from
LiveKitEventsService._handle_egress_ended.
Explicitly explain that transcription is reserved for public servants. Remove
the temporary beta form: the feature is now available to all public servants,
with restrictions based on domain. Make white-labeling rules explicit and
clarify who to contact for access.
The beta form created frustration, with users registering and never hearing
back from the team.
Improve guidance when a user may be the meeting host but is not logged in, and
therefore cannot activate recording. Add a clear hint and a quick action to log
in. This decision is based on frequent support requests where users could not
understand why recording was unavailable while they were simply not logged in.
Improve installation instructions to prepare for comprehensive Docker
Compose documentation launch, clarifying setup steps and addressing
common deployment questions to reduce onboarding friction.
