Stream Live On Facebook - Facebook added Live Streams to their Facebook Pages. So if you own a page you can from now on start streaming on Facebook. (It might not be unlocked for everyone immediately. And you might have to have a particular number of likes. I could not find precise info about this.).
There are a couple of restrictions though and as mentioned, you require a Facebook PAGE:
To start a stream you can click on "Live Video" up leading on the Facebook page, or if you have a Page you wish to Livestream on you can click on "Live" in the best sidebar:.
The background will turn dark and a popup will appear that might attempt to utilize your web cam right away if you have one connected to your computer system. If not you will see this picture:.
Click on "Connect" as marked in red. Now we exist with the information we need for our streaming software application:.
Copy the Streamkey and paste it into the Streamkey section in the settings of OBS:.
Crucial: The Stream Key can just be used for a single Live preview/post connection. You must use the very same URL and secret to sneak peek and post. That is, you can not preview, stop the stream, and after that resume at a later time. The URL and Key also expire 24 Hr after creation.
Make sure all your settings (Audio especially) are ready. Scenes and sources configuration need to be done prior to you begin going live. If you mistakenly stop your stream you will have to create a brand-new live video and copy over the new stream secret into the OBS settings. When all set, begin streaming in OBS. The stream will just be noticeable to you on the Facebook Page up until you click "Go Live".
After a few seconds you must see the following message:.
You can get in a Post message, offer the Video a title, add tags as well as tag people before going live. And you can likewise start the Stream in your Software and it should appear in the Popup Window:.
There are some more options readily available in the settings, like permit embedding, activate continuous video or automatic unpublishing after the video ended.
After you entered whatever and if your stream is online, the "Go Live" button will be blue as you can see in this example, which implies you are now all set to go live. Click on "Go Live" to do so or click on Set up to setup a starting time. If you go Live the Page will alter to a sneak peek of your Livestream. (See the red timer in the top left). Make sure to silence the sneak peek so there is no looping audio:.
You can likewise see comments here and obviously remark yourself. After you are finished with your Stream you can click "Complete" to stop being Live on Facebook. The video will be conserved and ought to soon appear in your Video Library of your Facebook Page:.
That has to do with it. You can now stream your material to Facebook and publish it on your Facebook Page. Keep in mind, the next time you start a Facebook stream you need to upgrade your Stream Secret.
