Going Live
Start a broadcast from the Thrivestream web studio.
You broadcast from the studio, a web page that runs entirely in your browser. There is nothing to download.
Start a Stream
- From the live feed, select Go Live
- Give your stream a title
- Grant your browser access to your camera and microphone when prompted
- Select Start to go on the air
Your stream now appears in the live feed, and viewers can join.
In the Studio
While you are live, the studio shows:
- Your preview, exactly what viewers see
- Live chat, so you can talk with your audience in real time
- Controls to mute your microphone, toggle your camera, and end the stream
End a Stream
Select End Stream in the studio. The broadcast stops immediately and the stream leaves the live feed.
Closing the studio tab also ends your stream. Keep the tab open for the whole broadcast.
Tips for a Good Broadcast
- Use a wired connection when you can; WebRTC is sensitive to unstable upload bandwidth
- Find a quiet, well-lit spot
- Engage with chat as you go, it is the heart of a live stream
