Need ideas on testing Screen Recording feature like zoom

Question

We have recently launched screen recording feature on our web app.

We provide support for browsers like Chrome, Safari and Edge to record/film the computer screen.

We would like to know your opinions/ideas for testing this features.

What can be possible tests that we can perform?

What can be possible/probable risks associated with this feature?

Are there common bugs in other similar services that we may encounter in our feature?

Here some ideas;

1. Test with selected tab only, and make sure that when you switch to another tab, it does not get recorded.
2. Test the recovery testing, when a test is in progress and browser crashes, what happens?

4. Analyze the file size of recording.
