Studio uses a lot of hardware resources so be sure to install it on a system with our recommended hardware specifications. One thing to note is that you will need an internet connection to authenticate Studio, but if you lose connection, you can continue using it for up to 24 hours before you will be prompted to reconnect and log in again.
Livestream StudioĪ license to Livestream Studio is included with a Vimeo Premium membership, meaning you can download it onto your Windows or Mac computer and use your Vimeo login to access the software ( Vimeo Enterprise includes three licenses). The Vimeo mobile app includes the ability to go live directly to a new or existing event on your Vimeo account. This page includes some of the same features as the broadcaster page such as graphics overlays, polls, and Q&A, but does not support multiple scenes, inviting guest speakers, or playing back videos. The live preview page will open and include your own webcam. If you create a one-time event, click Next from the settings page.
If your encoder does not have a separate field to input your event's stream key, you can add the stream key to the end of your RTMP URL, separating the URL and key with a forward slash, as shown below: Often doing all of these on the same system can cause CPU percentage to spike, impacting the quality of your stream and causing other tasks to lag as well. If you use encoding software on a Mac or Windows PC, we recommend keeping your encoding software on a separate machine from any other tasks you may need to do during your event, such as previewing and monitoring your stream or moderating the chat.
