Scenario
Restream makes it easy to broadcast live content to your favorite platforms. If you use Restream and want to embed a Restream stream when broadcasting a talk, you can do this easily by selecting Restream when configuring your Custom Stream and then entering the ID you want to embed.
Quick Start
- Navigate to your Restream Dashboard and click the "Set up for OBS, Zoom etc." button.
- Press the Embed Stream button and copy the token value only.
If we take the above screenshot as an example, the full embed code is as follows:
<div style="padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;"> <iframe src="https://player.restream.io/? token-3977b0d30ae54e3197a01864fee271576vwrs-1"> </iframe> </div>
Therefore, the token value would be:
3977b0d30ae54e3197a01864fee271576vwrs-1
- Head back to your HeySummit dashboard and go to Content > Talks.
- If you already have an existing talk, click the "..." next to one of your talks then select Manage Talk.
- On the next screen, you have 4 options for broadcasting the talk. When using Restream, select the Custom Stream option.
- Now, choose the Restream option and insert the token that you copied from Restream in the box provided.
Save all the changes and you're all set!
Don't forget to preview your public page and check that the video is correct (view in Broadcast/Replay mode to see the video).
The website preview will show an "Offline" screen once embedded. If you copy the wrong code or reach the limit of your concurrent viewers, the website player will display the error message "Can't play this stream".
