## Supported Browsers

The following table depicts the current state of browser support.
Please note that Opencast Studio uses fairly new web technologies that are not yet (fully) supported by all browsers.
That's usually the reason for why this app does not work on a particular browser/system.
In the table, "(✔)" means partial support and/or major bugs are still present.

Browsers/systems not listed in this table are not currently tested by us, so they might or might not work.
Opencast Studio uses somewhat new web technologies that are not yet (fully) supported by all browsers.
The following table depicts the current state of browser support (as of May 2022).

| | Firefox ≥ 68 | Chrome ≥ 77 | Edge ≥ 79 | Safari ≥ 14 |
| ---------- | -------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ----------- |
| Windows 11 | ✔ | ✔<sup>1</sup> | ✔<sup>1</sup> | -

<sup>1</sup> The videos created in Chrome, Edge and Safari are missing explicit duration information and you cannot seek through them.
See [#517](https://github.com/elan-ev/opencast-studio/issues/517) for more information.

<sup>2</sup> Recording webcam and screen at the same time fails (Studio bug: [#934](https://github.com/elan-ev/opencast-studio/issues/934)). Also: Safari only lets you capture the whole screen, not individual windows.

<sup>3</sup> Non-Safari browser on iOS use the Safari browser engine, so behave essentially the same as Safari.

<sup>4</sup> Screen share on mobile devices not supported; only webcam recording.

<sup>5</sup> Several bugs, see [#423](https://github.com/elan-ev/opencast-studio/issues/423).
