Bringing Other Streams into Livestream Studio

If you have a video source streaming to another destination, you can pull that stream into your Livestream Studio as a remote camera source.

Navigate to the Inputs tab in the lower left corner. Select Add Input > Stream. There will be a few options here.

RTMP Server is a different method for bringing a stream into Livestream Studio, which is covered here.

Livestream Event allowed you to pull in a stream from an event on Livestream.com as a remote camera source if you had access to the account hosting the event. With the end of streaming support on Livestream.com, this feature is no longer available.

You can also bring in streams via RTMP, RTSP, and Zixi playback URLs, which the stream's hosting platform can provide. Select the protocol your stream is using from Inputs > Add Input > Stream.

Enter the appropriate playback URL for accessing the stream into the Stream URL text box, then press the Enter key.

The stream will appear in the module. Expected latency will vary depending on the strength of connectivity, but is likely to hover around ten seconds.
