Streamers can now use external cameras while live streaming video of their teams from iOS and Android devices.
The following external cameras listed below are supported at this time as well as other cameras that use RTMPS live streaming:
- Mevo Start
- Mevo Plus
- GoPro Hero 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 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.
How to Start a Live Video Stream from a Mevo Start
1. Select the appropriate team

3. Tap the green Go Live button

When will this be released
This will be awesome when it’s released. I am willing to be a beta tester.
How does one become a beta tester? I have a Mevo Start and would love to try out the new integration. I use the Vimeo Producer software to overlay the score, base runners, outs, and batter/pitcher. Thanks!
Is it possible to still be added as a Beta Tester?
