Using a Safari browser

Note: When using a Safari browser it does not allow for exceptions. It will block third-party cookies with cross-site tracking enabled unless you specifically go to the website. A workaround is users will need to go to echo360.net.au in a new tab/window first and then attempt to access recordings.

  1. Navigate to EchoVideo.
