To begin streaming click the

GO LIVE button

Once the stream begins you will see the HUD where you can view the Timecode, CPU usage, Data Rate, and FPS.

You will also get an indication of how the stream is performing. You want to always see the green "Perfect Streaming"

If the computer can not handle encoding all the necessary streams then the CPU will begin to suffer performance issues

and can cause the stream to crash.

 

To end the stream click the STOP button on the HUD.

At the end of your event, Choose to delete or keep the recording.

Note that you can keep the recording but not publish it if desired.

This keeps the public from seeing it but allows you to download it later or trim the beginning & end before posting it.

CAUTION: Clicking DELETE will delete the video that was just recorded and it will be gone forever.
Do not click DELETE unless you knowingly want to delete the stream that was just recorded.
