   Reliable and easy

   We've been using Remotely for a year and never had any technical issues. Recording quality is great, and the branding functionality makes us seem more professional.

   The only con is that it doesn't do live streaming yet, if you need that.

• fixing portrait mode phone footage

  I'm using Premiere Pro 22.1.1. The footage was recorded online using remotely.fm. I've found the distortion effect went away when I stopped using a proxy for the portrait footage. Footage is MPEG4 AAC, H.264. The portrait footage is 720x1080, the landscape footage is 1920 x 1080. If I can ask another question, what do I need to do to be able to edit this footage together in the same sequence? i.e. I guess the next... Source: 12 months ago

• Riverside vs Zencastr? For a double-ender podcast (experiencing audio drift).

  Hey there, I'd like to suggest Remotely to add to your platform decision. We've built it with audio drift in mind, you're guaranteed to have all tracks at same length. Source: about 1 year ago

• footage is pixelated when playing but not when paused

  I recorded a video conversation on podcast software (remotely.fm), it looks pixelated on playback but when I pause the frame looks perfectly crisp. One speaker is 30fps, the other is 26.61 fps. The pixelated speaker is the one at 26.61fps. Can I fix this? If so, how? This will end up in a documentary. Thanks. Source: about 1 year ago

• Anyone else use anchor for podcasts?

  As for what to use, I personally recommend Remotely. It's a pretty straightforward web-based recorder. They've even got some auto-mix software now that you can use for the episode. If you want to go a step beyond just auto-mixing, you should look at using something like Descript or a true DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) like Audition or Pro Tools. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to record guest calling in for interview?

  Remotely.fm I have found to be pretty good for video plus audio. They also do just audio calls. Source: over 1 year ago

• I’m trying to make a podcast with my Dad remotely

  Reason I am asking is because while Zoom can do what you ask, in the free version there is a limit to 45min. Instead I'd recommend https://zencastr.com/ which is designed for what you want to do. Source: about 1 year ago

• Huge boost in downloads after switching from Buzzsprout to Zencastr?

  At Zencastr we count downloads compliant with IAB standards. We are currently working on getting officially certified by a third-party and so we haven't included this in our marketing yet. If you send me the link to your show page on zencastr.com, we can take a look to see if anything weird might be going on. josh@zencastr.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• I’m not being brought back for season 2 of a podcast because “since we are switching to video format, we no longer need an audio editor”

  Zencastr is a good option For recording video and multi channel decent quality audio locally on a guest’s computer while using a voip service. Source: over 1 year ago

• I think we need simpler end-to-end tools. Anybody else had this issue?

  Zencastr.com and alitu.com do recording + hosting but lack website creation or any form of marketing. Source: over 1 year ago

• Best Zoom alternative for online recording?

  This tool claims to be a podcasting-focused solution, not a video conferencing tool like some on our list. Zencastr is the ultimate all-in-one podcasting platform that allows you to record, edit, distribute and monetise shows from the same place. Source: over 1 year ago
