Automation Worker (Unattended) Supports Recording Quality (Standard/HD/Super HD)

When creating tasks in Automation Commander, if recording is enabled, the recording quality will be governed by unified settings (Commander-side), supporting three standards: Standard, HD, and Super HD. Specific quality parameters are as follows:

Desktop Change per Minute	Quality	Scale	Frame Rate	Bit Rate	Windows Desktop Resolution
Comprehensive change < 1.7M	Standard	1	4	300000	1920*1080
Comprehensive change < 2M	HD	1	5	400000	1920*1080
Comprehensive change < 2.5M	Super HD	1	6	500000	1920*1080

By default, the recording quality is set to "Standard," which minimizes server disk space usage while maintaining sufficient clarity. Historical versions (< 6.2.2 and >= 6.0.0) recorded at a slightly higher quality than the current "Super HD," occupying more disk space.

Internal Mechanisms Explanation

Process Package Cache Strategy

For the same process, the system caches the two most recent versions by default. Cache cleaning occurs automatically at user login to the Automation Worker Control Panel and at midnight daily to control local disk space usage.

Local Screen Recording File Cleanup

Screen recordings that have been successfully uploaded to the server are automatically deleted. However, residual files from failed uploads due to poor network conditions or deleted server task data are retained for 30 days by default. These files are automatically cleaned (physically deleted) at user login to the Automation Worker Control Panel and at midnight daily to prevent excessive disk space usage.

Default VNC Component Starting Port

The default starting port for the VNC component has been changed from 5900 to 15900 to meet the security requirements of financial clients.
