How to Record Entertainment Streams Using Movavi Screen Recorder for Mac

*Nowadays there are lots of different platforms that have entertainment streams – including YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, and Facebook.

However as much as these platforms offer up a diverse range of content, the one problem with watching entertainment shows on them is that you won’t be able to save the streams to watch later or when you’re offline.

Although some platforms are starting to implement ways of saving entertainment streams to watch later, so far they’re still few and far between and tend to be pretty limited. In short if you want to be able to save any entertainment stream so that you can watch it at any time and on any device the only way to really do it is to record it using software like Movavi Screen Recorder for Mac (www.movavi.com/mac-video-recorder/).
