Record a Test Before a Show
Make a short test recording before a show to check the picture, the sound and the disk, and listen back before you go live.
The short answer
Record five minutes with the same setup as the show, then listen and watch it back. Fix anything wrong before you go live.
How to do it in Streamdzy
- Choose what to record: the whole show, one camera, or the screen. The choice is under Recordings.
- Press Record. The finished show and each camera are saved as their own files, written in pieces so a crash loses seconds.
- Press Mark at a moment you want to find again. The log keeps those marks next to the files.
- Press Stop. The session folder opens with the show, the cameras, your voice and the log.
What to know first
Recordings use your PC’s disk: a long 4K session needs a lot of free space, and Streamdzy stops a recording when the disk is nearly full. Check what your computer can do with the PC test.
Questions
How long should the test be?
Five to ten minutes is enough to find most problems.
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.
