Storing Your Source Videos: Space and File Tips for Sikocam

Your source library is the studio cupboard of a virtual camera: small, deliberate and easy to reach. This guide keeps it that way, from the routine behind Sikocam official site.

A library, not an archive

Keep only feeds you actually present: a main video, an intro, a still portrait, a product clip, a calm evening variant. Five to ten well chosen files cover most presenters. Everything else belongs in your regular gallery or cloud archive, because a crowded picker slows the two minutes before a call, which is exactly when you can least afford it.

The files that earn their place are the ones that loop cleanly; our loop settings guide explains what to look for.

Formats and sizes that behave

Choose files your gallery plays without a stutter, at the resolution your edition outputs: no benefit in storing a giant master when the feed runs at HD, and Pro users should keep a true high resolution copy for 4K output. Huge files also make the phone work per frame, which shows up as heat on long calls.

Naming, tidying, freeing space

Name sources by job, not by file number: Intro, Desk Demo, Evening Calm. Review the library monthly, delete drafts, and keep a backup of the keepers as our backup guide describes. Free space is install health too; Android wants breathing room for every app on the phone.
