Channel LiveStream

The Streaming tab is displayed on the Channel Options menu if the Youtube Livestream feature is enabled. Channel owners and workspace administrators can start streaming or add another stream to the channel by specifying a URL through the Streaming tab.

{% hint style="warning" %} You might only be able to link live broadcasts from YouTube, depending on the workspace settings. When in doubt, always ask the server administrator. {% endhint %}

Start Streaming

To start a stream,

  • Click Livestream from the Options menu.
  • Add the Livestream Source URL.
  • Click the Broadcast my Camera button.
  • Login with a Google account. Note that streaming must be activated through your Youtube account.

{% hint style="info" %} See Broadcast Livestream and Live Stream on Youtube to learn more about Channel LiveStream. {% endhint %}

  • To add a different Livestream, get the URL for the stream, enter it into the Livestream source field, and hit save.
  • Add a message whenever the stream is unavailable in the Livestream not available message field.

Use the Enable audio-only button to add a stream that only contains audio.

Join a Live Stream

If you are not a channel owner and a live stream is set to that channel, press play on the stream tab. A pop-up is displayed with the stream embedded. The pop-up does not close even if you change channels.
