Lawful Browser Recording Control Plane

Cloud-style DVR orchestration for sessions you already own.

Honey Badger DVR is the first buildout of a SaaS control plane for browser-based recording jobs, storage lifecycle management, and operator oversight. The service is designed around lawful playback automation, auditable jobs, and reusable recorder workers.

Cloud DVR Queue, record, package, and manage lawful browser sessions.
Dark Ops Operator console built for night-shift monitoring and triage.
FFmpeg Ready Packaging pipeline designed for chapter markers and MP4 output.

Core Stack

The current foundation is PHP 8.3, MySQL, nginx, and HTTPS on your existing unified certificate. That keeps deployment simple while the recorder tier is still being designed.

  • Public site, customer portal, and admin console running from a single deploy root.
  • Schema ready for users, workers, jobs, recordings, and audit events.
  • Storage directories prepared under the app root for temporary and recording artifacts.

Recording Model

The intended SaaS model is a browser-controlled recording worker, not manifest ripping. That matches your legal boundary and the PlayOn Cloud style you want to emulate.

  • Headed browser worker with authenticated playback state.
  • Real-time capture and FFmpeg packaging.
  • Job queue, retention policy, and downloadable library assets.

Near-Term Roadmap

This first deployment gives you a real hostname and admin system. The next phase is recorder execution.

  • Worker registration and health reporting.
  • Job creation, scheduling, and state transitions.
  • Recording metadata, storage indexing, and user access controls.
