If you're on the individual StreamYard plan and don't have the On-Air webinar feature to embed your live StreamYard video, one workaround is to stream it to YouTube and then link it to your event. You can find detailed instructions on how to do this in this help document.
Streamyard is a live streaming and recording studio accessible from a web browser, where you can record content or stream live.
If you use Streamyard for a pre-recorded session, first find the video ID for the recording you want to show.
1. Access your Streamyard video. In Streamyard, open the recording's menu and choose Share.
2. Identify Your Video ID: Your video ID is the unique string of characters that comes after "https://streamyard.com/." In our example, it appears as "ns93t4mwz7kf."
Using the Embed Code Option: If you're opting for the Embed Code option, instead of clicking Share, navigate to the Embed tab.
3. Add the video to your HeySummit session. From your event dashboard, go to Content & Schedule > Sessions. Open the session's Actions menu and choose Manage Session. On the Broadcast tab, select Pre-recorded, then Streamyard. Paste the video ID or supported full URL into Enter your Streamyard video ID or URL. Review playback options and choose Save And Close when ready. For a broader setup walkthrough, see the pre-recorded video guide.
4. Preview your video. Check the session preview before sharing it. For the full process, see the video testing guide.
For a live Streamyard broadcast: On the same Broadcast tab, select Live broadcast and Streamyard, then enter the live stream ID or supported URL. Turn on Auto-embed Stream Chat only if you want Streamyard chat shown with the broadcast. Start stream muted is a separate playback option.
For the best attendee experience, we recommend using HeySummit chat (which includes Q&A and live polling). To use our chat, leave the toggle unticked and ensure that the chat feature in Streamyard is also turned off. You can adjust these settings before and during the session under On-Air settings > Watch Page by turning off Live Chat.
Note on Restrictions:
Please note that for Live Stream or URL broadcast type, you'll need Streamyard with On-Air Webinar, and it's recommended to have at least a Professional Plan (250 viewers) to have this feature. To check out their pricing plan and how many viewers each plan can accommodate, click here.
