How to broadcast a stream session
Your users or your application will need to be able to push an RTMP stream. When
configuring the software to push streams, use the secret stream key and
RTMP ingest URL from the stream page.
Depending on the software used to push your RTMP stream, you’ll be prompted for
the following:
- Stream Key: In some cases, this is called a Stream Name. Input your
Livepeer.com stream key, not your Livepeer.com stream name.
- Server URL: Input the regionally optimized Livepeer.com RTMP ingest URL.
For streams originating in North America, use
rtmp://mdw-rtmp.livepeer.com/live/. For streams originating in the EU, use
rtmp://fra-rtmp.livepeer.com/live/.
- Location or URL: Input the ingest url with the stream key appended. For
streams originating in North America, use
rtmp://mdw-rtmp.livepeer.com/live/stream-key. For streams
originating in the EU, use
rtmp://fra-rtmp.livepeer.com/live/stream-key.
