How can I convert the recordings to mp4 / mkv?
To convert the files to another format, you have to remux them. You don't have to reencode them, since the files (usually, have not seen an exception yet) already contain H.264 video and AAC audio. You can remux the files manually with tools like Avidemux, MKVToolNix or FFmpeg or use one of the post-processing scripts.
Streams are not getting recorded even though the model is online
- Is "Leave space on device set" and do you have enough space left?
- Is "Maximum resolution" set? In case maximum resolution is set and ctbrec cannot determine the resolution of a stream, the stream will not be recorded.
- Is "Concurrent Recordings" set and you reached the maximum?

How can I playback the server recordings?

If you have direct access to the recordings you can use these players and open the playlist.m3u8. Otherwise use the ctbrec client. Set the Record Location to Remote and configure your server.

Can I run several instances of CTB Recorder
It is possible to define the configuration directory and configuration file, which is used by ctbrec. This way you
can create several instances with different configurations.
On Windows, create a file called ctbrec.l4j.ini right next to ctbrec.exe. Add one of the following settings
or both to the file:
To change the config directory:
-Dctbrec.config.dir=C:\Users\boobface\Desktop\ctbrec\conf
To change only the config file:
-Dctbrec.config=abc.json
On Linux and macOS edit ctbrec.sh and add one or both of the above mentioned settings to the start line (preferably directly after $JAVA):
$JAVA -Dctbrec.config=alternate-settings.json -Djdk.gtk.version=3 -cp ctbrec-1.19.1-final.jar ctbrec.ui.Launcher
