How to Record CamSoda with CaptureGem

Record CamSoda in 5 steps

Free to start, and the same steps on Windows, macOS and Linux.

1. 1

   Step 1: Install CaptureGem

   CaptureGem is free to download and use, with no account needed. Download CaptureGem for Windows, macOS or Linux and open the desktop app.

   CamSoda changes its site often, so stay on the latest release. Leave the CaptureGem window open while recording: CamSoda rooms are checked through CaptureGem's built-in browser, so the standalone recorder can't record CamSoda by itself.

2. 2

   Step 2: Copy the room link

   Example link

   https://www.camsoda.com/model_username

   Open the model's room and copy the address from the browser bar. The username is whatever follows camsoda.com/.

   The names and numbers in these examples are placeholders; use the ones from the real page.

3. 3

   Step 3: Add the stream

   Go to the Record tab and paste the link into Enter URL or Username in the Add Stream panel; CaptureGem switches Select Website to CamSoda on its own. Prefer typing? Pick CamSoda under Select Website and enter just the username.

   Keep Monitor Only switched off so the stream is saved, then click Add Stream.

   Step 4: Check the recording status

   While the model is in a public show, the row switches to Recording within a few seconds. CamSoda doesn't tell CaptureGem about private shows, so the other statuses are:

   Offline

   The model isn't in a public show. Private shows also appear as Offline.

   Errored

   CaptureGem couldn't check or record the room.

   Hover over a status for more detail, such as the reason behind an Errored status.

5. 5

   Step 5: Find your recording

   When a recording finishes, CaptureGem converts it into a video file; long recordings can take a little while. Open the Review tab to play, trim, tag or delete it, or click Open Video Folder on the Record tab.

   Recordings are MP4 files by default. With Premium, each file runs up to 60 minutes by default and auto-record starts the next one straight away. You can change the save location, the file length (Cap Video Segments at Duration (Minutes)) and the container in Settings.
