Can I restore a deleted recording?

Please note that as Outplayed recordings are only saved locally to your computer, it's not possible to recover recordings once they have been deleted. 


If a recording was deleted without your knowledge please check if the storage auto-manage is enabled and change the settings as needed.


You can always create a backup of your current recordings using the guide here: How to Backup and Restore your Outplayed recordings


What is storage auto-manage?

In order to avoid old clips taking space on your computer Outplayed includes an auto manage feature which will automatically delete old clips. You can manage your storage auto manage settings in the Outplayed Storage settings:


Please note that the auto manage feature will not delete clips that are marked as Favorites. 


How to favorite a clip

To mark a clip as favorite simply click on the star over your clip or CTRL+D :


Once a clip is marked as favorite, you'll be able to easily find it in the Favorites tab:


Clips marked as favorite will also be protected from the auto manage feature in case you have it enabled. Outplayed will not automatically delete any clip that is marked as favorite - notice that it will be counted for the quota.


Please note that clips that have been trimmed or have been edited in the Outplayed Editor will automatically be marked as favorites and can not be removed from the Favorites tab without fully deleting the clip. 


Where to find the video files

You can find the original recording files by going to the Outplayed settings and clicking on Storage:


You can also find a specific video file by clicking on the Open Folder button over the clip:
