The Viostream Recorder

On an ongoing quest to further streamline your video workflow, Viostream is now proud to announce the release of our own video recorder.

What is the Viostream Recorder?

The video recorder is a completely free widget available from the Google Chrome store. Start recording your screen at the click of a button once you have the widget installed in your Chrome browser. It will not only record your screen, but also your webcam/camera if you so wish, along with your system’s audio as well. All of these options are selectable upon starting the recording. If you don’t want to record your entire screen, you also have the option to record a window or even a Chrome tab.

Once begun, the recording will last a full 20 minutes, providing you with plenty of time to demonstrate what you need while keeping the file small enough for easy delivery. When you have finished recording your video, our player will open up so you can watch back the recorded take. Along with the player, you will also be able to download the video file, or transfer it directly to Viostream for quick and easy distribution. You can even transfer to our free Viostream accounts!

Being able to quickly record and distribute short videos greatly enhances your workplaces communication system. Sharing and explaining your ideas in video form rather than typing it out is a far more engaging experience and can really speed up your workflow. For example, sending short video communications when training new employees makes the learning experience much easier.

With a complete integration to the Viostream platform, you can have advanced control over your video distribution by adding access restrictions, customizing themes, embedding into existing pages and more. Viostream’s platform capabilities in tandem with the speed and efficiency of the recorder means easier than ever video creation right at your fingertips.

Where can I get started?

Download the Viostream recorder widget from the Google Chrome store here. Once installed, just navigate to your extensions and select the blue Viostream logo to begin the tool. We also recommend pinning it to your toolbar so that it only takes a second to start recording video whenever you want.

To easily share the video out into the world and unlock many distribution options, all you need is a free Viostream account which only takes a minute to set up. That’s it!
