PART 4:

Record

Your Pearl encodes the video and audio it captures. Not only can you stream this content, but you can also
simultaneously record it. In fact, if you're streaming a picture in picture layout or low quality streams, you may
even want to create separate channels to also record each input at full frame size and with a high bitrate so
you have the best possible digital media for future re-use or post-processing.

If you choose to record your channels, Pearl stores the recorded files on the system's amply-sized hard drive
and provides you a variety of automatic or manual mechanisms to download the files.
