4. Streaming/Main Stage

This chapter is about how to integrate a stream and set it live.

You can find out how to set up a livestream here: How to configure a live stream?

In case you have a main stage with a live stream, you need to set it live on the app once your stream is up and running. As Host you can do that directly from the front end on the Main Stage pane or in the Cockpit. 

Please note that it can take up to some seconds to have the stream being played to all users. We strongly recommend that you follow this order of steps when going live:

1. Set your live stream to a splash screen or small welcome video
2. Go live on your streaming tool (like Restream or Vmix)
3. Go live on Swisscom Veertly
4. Start your show!

Usually, there are some seconds of delay between your stream and what the participants are watching, so before turning off your stream, give some seconds after the show has ended with a splash screen until it ends on Swisscom Veertly as well; otherwise, your attendees may miss part of the show. After it has finished, you can stop the live on Virtual Events and then stop the stream.
