CaptureGem Key Features (What to Use First)
CaptureGem has a lot going on. If you’re new, here’s the fastest way to understand what matters and what to enable first.
Official site: https://www.capturegem.com/
1) Record Unlimited Models
CaptureGem’s multi-threaded engine can record many streams simultaneously.
Use it when:
- you follow multiple performers
- you want a “set it and forget it” recording dashboard
2) Auto‑Record on Go‑Live (and resume)
This is the feature that prevents missed moments:
- Start recording automatically when someone comes online
- Resume after disconnects
3) VR + Standard Streams → saved as .mp4
CaptureGem supports both VR and non‑VR streams and saves recordings as .mp4 for easy playback.
4) Review & Manage
Instead of dumping files into a folder forever, CaptureGem helps you triage:
- auto-generated image grids
- favorites and tags
- deletion protection
5) Live Monitor
A real‑time overview of active recordings via thumbnails — without consuming extra bandwidth.
6) Built‑in Editor
Quickly cut or combine segments to keep only what you care about.
7) Cross‑Site Groups
If a performer goes offline on one site and appears on another, Cross‑Site Groups let you keep them organized and tracked.
8) Proxy Mode
Proxy Mode is for:
- private shows
- unsupported sites
- anything Chrome can view
If you want a step‑by‑step Proxy tutorial, tell me whether you’re on Windows or macOS and I’ll write the exact guide for your setup.
