Can I live stream using my own encoder?

To set up live streaming of the content, you need to point the streaming encoder to our server. We support live streaming through the camera using RTMP feed. Software Encoder is the best for live streaming because of more advanced features, low price (Even many software encoders available for FREE), easy to update, etc. There are many different software encoders are available for live streaming (e.g. OBS, XSplit, Wirecast ,Cambria Live, Liveshell, AWS Elemental Live, Haivision, LiveU, Matrox, NewTek and Teradek).

We will configure it for your store for a nominal charge.
