Streaming to YouTube, Facebook, or Twitch
RTMP setup, multi-destination, what works and what doesn't.
You can simulcast your live session to YouTube, Facebook Pages, Twitch, or any RTMP destination β up to 5 at once from a single feed. Requires a creator plan with RTMP streaming enabled.
Setup
- In the video room (as host), click Go Live in the header (Radio icon)
- Add destinations: click YouTube/Facebook/Twitch presets or Custom RTMP
- For each: paste the full RTMP URL from the platform's broadcaster panel (e.g.
rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/STREAM_KEY) - Click Go Live (N) β streaming starts within 10 seconds
Facebook Live caveat
Facebook removed direct RTMP support for personal profiles in 2023. To stream to a Facebook Group, you need a Facebook Page as an intermediary: stream RTMP into Page β cross-post to Group via Facebook Live Producer.
YouTube
YouTube Live requires 24-hour enablement on a fresh channel. After that, RTMP works at any subscriber count (unlike mobile-app live which needs 50+).
Overlay bake-in
By default, overlays (lower thirds, watermark, ticker) render in the room but NOT in the outbound stream. Admins can flip Stream overlays in Admin β Settings β Video to bake them in.
