What's the difference between .ARF and .WRF?

.WRF (WebEx Recording Format)

  • Use a .WRF player to watch .WRF recordings, i.e.,
    WebEx sessions you've recorded directly onto your computer.
  • Edit .WRF files using an editor you install separately.
  • Convert .WRF recordings to Windows Media Video (.WMV) format using the editor.

.ARF (WebEx Advanced Recording Format)

  • Use an ARF player to watch .ARF recordings you've downloaded
    from WebEx
    and saved to your computer.
  • Record .ARF files using Network-Based Recording (NBR).
  • Navigate your recording using a table of contents.
  • See the session's attendee list, video, and more on separate panels.
  • Convert .ARF recordings to Windows Media Video format (.WMV) or
    Flash (.SWF) using the .ARF player.
  • Make basic edits on your WebEx site—no standalone .ARF editor is available.
