Channels

PreviousUsers and GroupsNextLive Annotations & Chat

Last updated 21 days ago

Each channel is a private workspace centered around a live stream. Every channel has a name, some optional notes, a theme (the system theme is the default) and a list of allowed Groups, Clients and Creators. This can be edited to allow/revoke access to channels as needed, or to enable automatic recording.

In this example, we have a channel with a number of ways to access it:

  • Any member of "The Californians" group can see the channel.

  • Isaac, Ketty, Linda and Tarzan can see the channel.

More on Channels:

  • New users have access to nothing by default, unless you have allowed all clients / creators on one or more existing channels.

  • Channels can receive one incoming stream at a time. If you attempt to connect a second stream to a channel which is already live, the stream connection will be rejected.

  • When a channel is deleted, any chat messages, annotations, recordings, file uploads and restreams associated with that channel are also deleted. Be sure to save anything you want to keep before deleting a channel!

  • Auto-Recording is not recommended for channels that are live for long periods of time (longer than 8hrs).
