Video storage on the internet isn't reliable Sites can close or break. Here's how to back up your social media accounts on your laptop.

My personal story doesn't have a lot of depth. I was born, went to school, worked, labored until I finally got something done online.. However, there were some traumatic moments, when everything seemed gone forever. One of those was the time my personal computer at work went quiet. After some tweaking, installing new desktops and shifting the hard drive from one computer to the other, I was finally in a position to restore all of the data saved on the drive. It took me three days of sweating and figuratively tears... Following that, I have learned one important thing - how to utilize Dropbox and personal ftp server to automatically and manually backup my work day to ensure it is impossible to be deleted.


It's certainly not the best option. The larger your online data storage, the more have to spend to preserve it. It's simple and appears safe. And it's of course very accessible, and it can be downloaded anywhere you have access to internet access. But what happens if you don't have access the internet? I love to have my laptop near to me during those times. It's my last option to protect against losing data. There are two drives coupled as RAID stack, which means they copy each other and ensure that one copy is retained if one of the 2 HDDs goes broken. I only copy stuff there to ensure that my laptop won't fail.

My other great day of sorrow came couple of years ago. I take care not to lose my work, as I said above, now I copy it multiple times and can access it wherever internet is available. This was Periscope. It was a tool I frequently used a time ago. And even last summer, when there were riots, I was able to do a few live streams. Now Periscope TV is closing down and all videos will go away in the next few weeks. What should I do? I'm required to download the entire video to store them offline on my laptop. These videos are dear to my heart, they were the last time I spent with my best friend in Covid.

This site is one I frequently visit. It lets me download video content from Youtube and Instagram and Facebook which are a few of the places where I keep most of my live streams. I'm a political activist and am involved in underground movements, and so I record a lot of live events, save them for the future, publish some on my YouTube channel and each time live is done, I backup the footage to my laptop. This is the method I use. It allows me not only to share YouTube video on Facebook but also to upload that video to Facebook. The video will then be its very own video. In reality I have over 3TB live feeds from the past 8 year. Periscope live streams don't go away.. https://y2mate.stream I find this site extremely useful.

It works like magic. https://y2mate.stream It is possible to open the video you want to download via Periscope, Youtube, or Facebook. Copy the URL by clicking the share link. After that I go to the video downloading site to copy the URL, then click the button. In a matter of seconds, I have multiple options to download videos. Periscope isn't available on every website.

Windows copy is a method to combine these fragments into a single file. It happens because of the format of video used to create the video fragments - Mpeg TS or transport stream. The stream contains all the details needed to decode every fragment. They are independent of each other, which allows each new user to stream effortlessly. It also saves data on the browser since it downloads 360x10 second files instead of the 1hr files. So, when you only watch 25 seconds of the stream, it will only download 4-6 pieces. (It gets 3-4 fragments from the 25 second period, plus one or two additional fragments if you keep watching the stream). This cuts down the total download time to only 25 seconds prior to the start of the stream.
