**startRecording / stopRecording** - record the page as a video at native FPS (30-60fps). Uses `chrome.tabCapture` in the extension context, so **recording survives page navigation**. Video is saved as WebM.
|
||||
|
||||
**Important**: Recording requires the user to have clicked the playwriter extension icon on the target tab first. This grants the `activeTab` permission which is required for `chrome.tabCapture`. If recording fails with "Extension has not been invoked for the current page", ask the user to click the extension icon on the tab they want to record.

**Note**: Recording requires the user to have clicked the Playwriter extension icon on the tab. This grants `activeTab` permission needed for `chrome.tabCapture`. Recording works on tabs where the icon was clicked - if you need to record a new tab, ask the user to click the icon on it first.
