We have noticed that since Firefox 87 was released, audio recordings made in the browser are being cut off. After recording for up to 3 minutes, the recorded preview of the file seems to be cut off. A 3 minute recording would yield a 39 second preview, whereas a 1.5 minute recording yielded a 15 second preview. The file it seems is only recording a much smaller segment of audio from what is intended.

Is there a known bug recorded for this problem?

Thanks, Josh Wild

I remember having seen a similar report from another user also on Mac who reported the same problem, but wrote that this issue is fixed in the current Beta release (88.0bx). So this could be an issue only in Firefox 87.

See this bug report.

(It's too late for 87.0. Keeping on the radar for a dot release.)
