Facebook to delete old broadcast recordings after 30 days

TechnologyWashington, February 19 (QNA) – Facebook announced that it will start deleting users' live broadcast recordings after 30 days starting on Feb. 19.Users who go live after that date must download the videos to save them from getting deleted before their 30-day expiration period ends.Meta says it's making the change because ‘most live video views occur within the first few weeks of broadcasting.’All previously recorded live videos that are older than 30 days will also be removed. However, there will be email and app notifications that go out before archive is completely deleted. Once users get the notice, they will have 90 days to download or transfer the videos.Facebook plans to delete old broadcast recordings in waves over the coming months.Facebook also has several download tools to help users save their videos, either individually or all at once. Once they get the notification, they can request a bulk download of all videos within a custom date range. They could also choose to transfer the videos directly to a cloud service like Dropbox or Google Drive.Users can save individual videos that matter to them by going to Activity Log, filtering for ‘Your live videos,’ and then selecting the dates to see the videos you can download. Alternatively, they can go to the Videos tab or Live tab on their profile, Page, or in Meta Business Suite, select the video they would like, play it in fullscreen, then choose download video from the three-dot menu.Finally, if they don't have time to execute any of these, there will also be a postpone request option, giving them six months to save their videos.
