Streaming from OBS or another encoder
Using external broadcast software instead of your browser.
- 1
Browser streaming from the studio is the default and needs no setup.
- 2
If encoder streaming is enabled on your account, open the encoder panel in Live to get your ingest URL and stream key.
- 3
Pick a protocol: RTMPS for encrypted delivery (recommended), RTMP for the widest software compatibility, or SRT for lower latency.
- 4
Paste the URL and key into OBS, Streamlabs or XSplit and start streaming to see your feed appear in the studio.
- 5
Go live unlocks as soon as we can see your feed.
Tip: Nothing coming through? Check the key is pasted in full, and that your network allows outbound RTMP (port 1935) or SRT (port 9000). Never share your stream key. Regenerating it disconnects your encoder immediately.
