Now that the download function is supplied as an official part of Rakuten TV, there appears to be little need to fundamentally screen record Rakuten TV videos, but the approach to be discussed in this article is useful to know.
The following video titles on Rakuten TV can be recorded for permenant viewing.
- Some titles that can't be downloaded.
- Some titles that may be removed after a set period.
- Purchased or leased works requiring a cost in addition to the monthly fee.
Because you can quickly store all of these videos to your phone or tablet using this approach, you can watch them from anywhere at any time. Furthermore, the Rakuten TV membership may be subscribed for a single month. If there are any titles that you want to watch, you may do so by pressing the record button.
The recording approach I am going to demonstrate is fully legal so you are free to record your videos on demand without any worries!
What Do You Need to Know About Recording?
Generally speaking, recording HDTV video content can't be done on smartphones, tablets or computers. This is because of the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) technology, a protection technology for copyright, aiming to stop copying digital content without authorization.
A normal recording will result in a dark screen after the recording is completed. However, if you follow the steps outlined below, you will be able to record Rakuten TV videos as many as you like without encountering any difficulties.
What Do You Need to Prapare Before Recording Videos?
Prepare the following items before recording.
- Personal computer
- Internet connection
- Your Rakuten TV account
- Recording Software
Aside from the basic items essential for video playback, such as a computer, Internet connection, and video streaming service account, Rakuten TV recording requires a dedicated recording software called KeepStreams for Rakuten TV.
It is possible to get the full edition and the free trial version of KeepStreams, which are both available for download. There is a limit to the amount of recordings that may be made using the free trial version of the software. If you want to record more than one, you'll need to upgrade to the full version.
A free trial version is sufficient for you to check the operation of the software, but it is not sufficient for you to utilize the software. Because of this, if you want to record more than three videos, I urge that you buy the full edition to guarantee that your experience is as good as possible.
