Hi Klaus,

This error (in english: “Not enough storage space for this procedure”) is caused due to a limitation in RS when trying to use the screen recorder on heavy simulations (approx. when station \>100MB). Most likely, it will work fine if you try on a less heavy station. However, as a workaround in this case, I recommend you to use a third party product instead (for example Camtasia). I have reported this problem to the dev. team so hopefully we will soon see a solution in an upcoming release.

Best regards,

Anders Jahnberg, ABB Robotics

Hi Klaus!

I got the same Problem in my station. You can also use Microsoft Media Encoder with Option “Screenrecording”. There you can select the part of the screen you want to record.

By the way: I suppose it’s the same RS does but this way it works.
