It’s just a switcher. It does not have an internal recorder
A video switcher, sometimes known as a video mixer, is a hardware or software system that chooses one of several incoming video signals from various sources (such as a camera or PowerPoint feed) and sends it to one output, such as a streaming device, video recorder, or display device (i.e. a monitor or screen).
Client devices do not need to download the complete video before playing it because only a few seconds of the clip are sent over the internet at once. When a video stream is delivered over the Internet in real time without being beforehand recorded and saved, this is known as live streaming.
Without livestreaming, you can record a video with Switcher Studio. On your primary switching device’s Outputs page, just choose None for recording purposes: By tapping the icon that resembles a box with a right-facing arrow in the tab bar, you may access the Outputs tab.

The word “streaming” was first applied to tape drives made by Data Electronics Inc. that were designed to ramp up gradually and run for the duration of the track, hence reducing drive costs. Early in the 1990s, “streaming” was used to better describe video on demand and then live video on IP networks.
The term “live” in this context refers to streaming media that is simultaneously recorded and presented in real-time, without any pauses or delays. Live streaming is essentially the same as streaming, with the exception that it enables the delivery of content as a real-time data stream over the Internet.
How is streaming carried out? Audio and video data are divided into data packets and transmitted over the Internet in the same way as other types of data. Each packet comprises a small portion of the file, and an audio or video player in the client device’s browser transforms the stream of data packets into audio or video.
The period of time between an event’s scheduled start time and conclusion time is known as the “live event.” Model 1. Whether or not there is a cover charge, a live event is defined as a popular or classical concert, performance, dance party, or other live entertainment with music being played or performed; Sample 1.
