Why am I getting this error?
Boomcaster requires 5GB of space to record in high quality. This allows Boomcaster to safely store the recording temporarily on your system while simultaneously uploading to cloud. While cloud upload is real-time, local storage in the browser is needed to ensure a reliable and smooth recording experience.
