When to live stream and when to record and upload

Posted by: Ulysses King Under: Tips |

Media and entertainment brands, recording artists, and communities are producing video content on the Kyte Platform in a variety of ways.

Kyte Mobile Producer for Nokia S60 allows you to live stream OR record and upload video content to your Kyte Channels.

But which is better—live streaming or record and upload?

Well, it depends-- which is why we provide a flexible platform that provides both options. 

Live streaming is great for:

• broadcasting breaking news
• live event coverage
• communicating live with your audience

Record and upload is a great feature to utilize when:

• you are in non-optimal network conditions (no Wi-Fi or 3G)
• you want more editorial control over your content
• you want to capture content with the highest quality possible

Huffington Post, SPIN Magazine, New Kids on the Block, and Raheem DeVaughn are just a few of the many Kyte users that have utilized both live streaming and record and upload to produce branded video content for their audience of fans.  Here’s a recent show that Brandy produced utilizing the record and upload feature:

So, the next time you’re in an area with non-optimal network conditions or want to have more editorial control your content, remember that record and upload is a great option that will allow you to broadcast your content within minutes of producing.  Happy Kyting!
