Streaming live via RTMP

With the Streaming feature, you can broadcast recordings live to streaming platforms, such as Facebook™ Live or YouTube™ Live. Use streaming to broadcast to a wide audience with minimal setup. If streaming is enabled, you will simultaneously record your presentation to Mediasite and live stream to your platform of choice.

To live stream, you will need a public streaming server URL from your streaming platform and a stream key associated with your account on the platform.

  When you stream a video live using RTMP, the Recorder only sends one video stream.

Requirements:

      A stream key

      Stream server URL

      RL220 and RL900/ML900 series Recorders (Other models are not supported)
