RTMP streaming is simply sharing content from your computer (entire screen, separate app or window, webcam signal, etc.) to the Stage or Sessions with the best video and audio quality possible.

Note: Streaming to Bettercast via RTMP requires a third-party application; we found OBS to be a popular option amongst streamers and is available for free here: https://obsproject.com/.

  • Go to your event site and navigate to the stream admin of your selected stage.

  • Click EDIT on the Go live card for your stream

  • Select if you would like RTMP or RTMPS keys.

OBS only supports a single outbound stream
