Live Streaming From An External Camera

Team Staff members can now use external cameras while live streaming video of their teams from an iOS device. This feature is currently under limited release while we test out the functionality, so only specific Team Staff members have been given early access.

The following external cameras listed below are the only cameras supported at this time:

• Mevo Start
• GoPro Hero 9 Black 
• GoPro Hero 8 Black 
• GoPro Hero 7 Black 
• GoPro Max

Stream Keys and URLs are specific to each event you stream for, therefore the instructions below will need to be repeated for every event streamed from an external device.

Audience controls are currently not supported for external cameras.  If streaming from an external camera, your audience will default to the most recent audience you streamed to.
