Note:

  • If a recording contains blocked content, Session Recording skips it. However, if you navigate to the blocked period, your playback shows a black screen and a message indicating that that content is blocked. To use this feature, use Session Recording 2012 and later.
  • If you are using the Session Recording Player 2009 and earlier to play back a recording, the following error message appears. The web player is not impacted.
