Tips for Best Results
Chrome Users: Keep this tab visible and active
during recording/streaming. Chrome throttles background tabs which
can cause video frame drops and streaming issues.
-
Audio Setup: Use "Active" to include audio in
recordings, "Play Locally" to hear it in your speakers
-
Performance: Lower canvas resolution if you
experience lag or frame drops
-
Screen Sharing: Choose "Share Tab" for better
performance when recording web content
-
File Formats: Use MP4/WebM for video files and
MP3/WAV for audio files for best compatibility
-
Streaming: Test your stream setup with a short
recording first before going live
