Keep Streaming When the Internet Drops
Keep your recording safe and your stream going when your connection drops: Record first keeps what was not sent and carries on in order.
The short answer
With Record first, Streamdzy keeps what was not sent on your disk and resumes from where it stopped when the connection returns. The recording is never missing a moment.
How to do it in Streamdzy
- Add each platform once under Settings, Go live and paste its stream key. The key is kept encrypted on your PC.
- Tick the places you want on and press Go live. Your PC encodes the show once and sends it to each one.
- Watch the scene, the chat and the connection in one window. Press a scene or an alert whenever you need it.
- Press Stop when you are done. The recording of the whole show is already saved on your PC.
What to know first
Your upload speed is the real limit: every place needs its own copy of your picture. The installer is for Windows; Mac and Linux builds are not published yet. Run the upload speed test before a long show.
