How to Recover After the Internet Cuts Out
The internet dropped in the middle of a show: what happens to your stream and recording, and how to get back on air.
The short answer
Record first keeps what was not sent on your disk and resumes in order when the line returns. Your recording is never missing a moment, and each place reconnects by itself.
How to do it in Streamdzy
- Open Connections and the Health check. They show what your PC and network can carry before you go live.
- Choose a picture quality that the check and the upload test agree on. A steady stream beats a sharp one that stalls.
- Turn on Record first so your recording is never missing a moment, and viewers see a smooth stream behind it.
- Keep the Lifeline on. When the connection weakens, the stream steps down to a smaller picture instead of freezing.
What to know first
Results depend on your PC and your connection. Streamdzy’s safety systems cover the most common failures, but no app can fix a connection that is down. Run the upload speed test to see your line first.
Questions
Do I have to restart the stream?
No. Each place reconnects by itself. Check the platform shows you live again.
Want all of this in one app?
Streamdzy is a free streaming and recording app for Windows: several cameras, your phone as a camera, going live to many places at once, and recording first so a bad connection never costs you the show.
