Create a Live Stream

Setting up a live stream on Gumlet is like eating candy. Two clicks and you are ready to perform.

Getting started

1. Navigate to Live Streams > Collections and click on Add New Collection

2. Name your collection and create a collection. A good name can help you identify collections later.
3. In the next step, select the resolutions that you want your live stream to stream in.

4. When you create a Stream, you will get the stream server URL and stream key for ingestion through a tool of your choice.
5. Go to OBS settings > Stream and copy & paste the server URL and key from the Gumlet streaming settings page.

6. Click on Start Streaming button on the OBS and your stream will start.
7. You can copy the embed code from the Gumlet Dashboard and embed it in your website or app or any other place you want to.

👍

Your audience will be able to see the live content.

Stop a Stream

1. Click on the Stop Streaming button in the OBS.
2. Click on the Complete Stream button on the live stream page (in the top-right corner) on Gumlet.

🚧

If your video is disconnected for 30 minutes continuous, our system will mark it complete automatically.

This is a mechanism to stop streaming if you forgot to do it manually. It saves you bandwidth and deliver better UX.
