    Zencastr seems to have everything I need… except the option to add a background or blur the background of my video! 😫 Do you know any workarounds for this?
  • @ivirlei
    Great job on this. super useful!
  • @amazingsylvia
    Thank you for this great video, helped me make my decision πŸŽ‰
  • I use Riverside and think it is great! However, I have had to jump through several hoops to get the link to work for my guests, especially when I send them the automated Riverside email with the link. Usually I have to end up texting them the URL and they access it that way
  • Great video, thanks so much! I couldn't find the website you mentioned. Can you post it again please.
  • @oxenathletics
    Hey man love the vids. Any tips on how to increase your average view duration for shorts?
  • Zencaster does have a clearer color balance and focus sharpness. Riverside seems to record warmest -- lending a color boost to the images, although not as crisp as Zencaster. I would say it's the #2. Iris takes 3rd. Because of its features, I prefer Riverside of the 4.
  • there are some changes on squadcast including a free account. There needs to be an updated video on this same topic.

    Thanks for this video. Just one point: I prefer Riverside, but it has a problem (for me): if guest connect with smartphone, he should download APP. Till today I used Streamyard
  • @paulgarny7239
    Zencastr is the clear decision for me but I use boomcaster because of the ability to share my screen. I wish zencastr had screen share ability. I’d switch without a doubt
  • Riverside user here and I've encountered a lot of issues with the platform. Most recently one of our host's entire video/audio wasn't uploaded into our pod studio and had to be recovered separately which means we're scurrying to find the best alternative editing software/editor that will be able to sync the recovered tracks back into the episode. Plus the preview or studio links always give one of our hosts or guests trouble. Def looking into Iris, Zen, or Squad.

    curious your take on riverside vs streamyard on audio and video quality and problems? I keep hearing sync and drag issues with riverside. I've been wanting to check them out too, but..
