Record First Setting Explained

Record first sets how far behind your viewers watch, so a stall or a mistake is hidden from them while your recording stays whole.

The short answer

Record first sets the delay between your recording and the stream. Choose the delay you need: a short one for quick cuts, a longer one for mistakes you want to cut before viewers see them.

How to do it in Streamdzy

  1. Open Settings in Streamdzy and find the screen for the setting.
  2. Change one setting, then check the picture or sound in a short test.
  3. Use the Health check to see whether your PC keeps the change.
  4. Save the arrangement as a scene, so the setting is ready for the next show.

What to know first

Settings depend on your PC, your cameras and your connection. The Health check and the upload test show what each one can carry.
