With OBS Studio, you can create any number of “scenes” (also known as “layouts”) containing any combination of your sources. We’ve listed OBS Studio as one of the best live streaming platforms, and for good reason. Using Epiphan’s simple-to-use AV.io video grabbers with a free open source streaming application, such as OBS Studio, you can create an affordable setup for live multi-source streaming to your favorite social platform. If that sounds like you, then I have some good news. But what if you wish to stream multiple cameras to a social platform but don’t require all the features our Pearl and Pearl-2 appliances have to offer? Or perhaps you prefer a lower cost solution for live streaming multiple sources to your social followers? (Note that we have a How-to article that covers this exact process in more detail, if interested.)īoth Pearl products have comprehensive feature sets that meet and exceed the needs of most high-end live productions. Our popular live production switchers, Pearl and Pearl-2, can push streams via RTMP containing many different sources and layouts to Facebook Live and YouTube (among many other CDNs). However, social streaming isn’t limited to using only a single camera in live broadcasts. Since the recent release of our two new social media streaming devices- Webcaster X1 for Facebook Live and Webcaster X1 for YouTube-aspiring content producers have been very excited with the concept of streaming an HD camera to either Facebook Live or YouTube using a simple Webcaster X1 device code.
