Use your SD Card to Bridge to Post Production
Use your recorded files to archive your streams. Now you can repurpose these recordings into clips for social media to help grow your brand and better tell your story.
Also, be confident that your content is safely backed up. Know that there is a place you can always access your video recordings. You can even access these files remotely using Epiphan Cloud while the SDI card is inserted into your Pearl system!
