How do you record streaming video with sound?

You need a desktop screen recorder like ScreenRec which can record both the computer screen and audio. Also, make sure that this screen recorder can capture HD video so that you can get the best quality. With ScreenRec, in particular, your videos will be saved to your cloud account and you can save them as mp4 files on your computer, if you want.

Can I record a live stream on my computer?

Yes, you can if you have a screen recorder that can capture the system audio (the sound coming from your speakers). Not all screen recorders offer this option. For example, the built-in Windows Game Recorder can only record your microphone but not the audio. One of the solutions that can record your computer screen and audio is ScreenRec. There is also recording history that allows you to go back and preview your videos.

How can I record a live stream video to the cloud?

Recording your live stream video to the cloud can be an easy task if you are already using ScreenRec. This video capturing tool automatically uploads your video while you’re recording, so you’ll not only upload your live stream recording to the cloud but you’ll also be able to do it in real time. As soon as you stop recording, you get a shareable link. Additionally, you have access to recording history, where you can preview your video and get your sharing link again.
