# Recording Limitations

### Only local recording is supported

Currently, only the local recording option is available in Jitsi. The "default" recording option is non-functional.

### Supported browsers

The local recording option is only available in Chrome-based browsers. If you are using Safari, Firefox, or a Firefox based browser, the option will not be visible.

### Recording using Brave

If you are using Brave, a browser setting must be enabled before the local recording option is available.

1. Open a new tab and navigate to [brave://flags](brave://flags).
2. Search for  
    ```
    File System Access API
    ```
3. Change the setting to "Enabled".
