PAUL ON CALL: Keep your media safe
Posted in News
When you are broadcasting, it is a best practice to always record a local copy. This would serve as a backup, just in case something goes wrong. Do not trust your only copy to an internet connection. Most live stream encoding software enables you to record to your hard drive while you are sending your live stream.
Onedrive or Dropbox accounts can also be used as an additional online backup solution, which can provide you access to your files from any connected device.
Another strategy is to save the files to an external hard drive, then use an automated online backup service such as BlackBlaze. This service costs about $60 per year. This is a great backup to your backup. Having files backed-up in multiple places, in case of an emergency, is always a great idea!
