You will then be directed to the "Stream Configurations" page where you can choose different stream configuration options.

"Web live stream" Option

This stream configuration section is where you can select your "Web live stream" options. If the "No live web stream" option is selected, it means there is no live stream that is being sent to a platform like YouTube, Facebook or Twitch. 

"Custom RTMP configuration" Option

If the Custom RTMP configuration is selected, you will be able to type in the field below a remote server address. An example address would be rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/abcdef . 

When you schedule a game next in this competition type, the live stream of that game will be sent to this address. Examples of where this can be sent to is platforms like YouTube and Twitch.

Web Live Streaming Prioritization. This should be done only if your Internet bandwidth in your arena is not high enough to stream for platforms like YouTube, Facebook and the Keemotion iOS App at the same time. See this article for more details.

Video bitrate - Bitrate describes the speed at which bits are transferred from one place to another. 

A higher bitrate increases the quality of the video, in addition to increasing the bandwidth.     

Friendly Reminder: Please note that at this time, the bitrate applies to all of your streams like (YouTube/Facebook/Twitch + the Keemotion player).

Note: Please note that if you select, for example, 2500 Kb/s, your bandwidth must be able to support 2 streams of 2500 Kb/s, which means a total of 5000 Kb/s. 

The higher the bitrate, the better the quality of the video will be and therefore more bandwidth will be needed to support that bitrate.

Audio control - This option will allow you to set volumes for all games that will take place in that specific league.

AUDIOSOURCE1 is the ambiance sound.

AUDIOSOURCE2 is the commentator audio. If it is not available, it means that you don't use a commentator mixer in your arena.

Production overlay - This option allows you to add a default or custom overlay to your stream.
