| A device signaling support for recording to an external target shall limit the upload speed so that a segment takes at least half as long as its duration to upload. | ||
| If the upload fails on the first try, the device shall retry uploading to the external target as fast as possible, to prevent loss of recording. |

do we have ONVIF API to control the segment upload speed against segment size & duration? Or this PR is about only recording control doc update.

At the moment, only update to the documentation. Some other use cases were raised during the F2F and the proposal will have to be reviewed and adapted.

Yes, we still need to make some updates to it, but we haven't had the time.

@jflevesque-genetec thanks for the response I am sure it will be discussed and reviewed at the F2F.
This PR introduces a new upload limit for cloud recording, to help prevent network spikes when a device uploads a segment to the object storage. Without this type of limit, having numerous devices uploading their segments at the same time can greatly degrade the network quality of a customer.
