Recording Too Large to Share: What to Do

A recording is too big to send or upload: convert it to a smaller file or share it through a service that takes large files.

The short answer

Convert the recording to MP4 at a smaller quality for sharing, and keep the original on your PC. Large files can be shared through a cloud drive or the platform you upload to.

How to do it in Streamdzy

  1. Find the problem in the list, and try the first step only.
  2. Check it again with a short test, before you go live or record.
  3. If it still happens, run the Health check and the upload speed test, and note what they show.
  4. Update Streamdzy from Settings, Updates, if the problem is one we have fixed in a newer version.

What to know first

Some problems come from the PC, the network or the platform rather than the app. Streamdzy’s checks show which one it is; a connection that is down cannot be fixed by the app.

Questions

Will a smaller file look worse?

It can. Keep the original and share the smaller copy.

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.
