Element

A component or feature in a Streamrun app, such as a video source, an overlay, or an audio filter. Elements are the building blocks of your live stream app; understanding their use and cost can help optimize the stream’s performance and budget.

Streamrun Editor

Definition: The web interface for creating, managing, and customizing live streaming applications on Streamrun. Editor simplifies the process of building apps with no-code or low-code options, making it accessible for users of all skill levels to enhance their streams.

Remote control

A mobile-first interface in Streamrun web app designed for controlling live stream on the go, allowing you to switch video inputs, start or stop streams to different platforms, and manage other elements in real time.

Multistreaming

Streaming a single live video to multiple platforms simultaneously, like Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook. Multistreaming expands your reach by broadcasting to various audiences at once, maximizing visibility and engagement without additional effort. With Streamrun, you can multistream with different layouts and overlays to different platforms simultaneously.

Server-Side Ad Insertion (SSAI)

Integrate ads directly into the video stream from the server side rather than through the client (viewer’s device). SSAI provides a seamless ad experience that’s harder for viewers to block, allowing for better monetization opportunities.

Disconnect Protection with Failover

Ensures continuous streaming by automatically switching to a backup stream or displaying a "no signal" image in case of a disconnection. Disconnect protection is essential for professional streams, where interruptions can impact viewership and engagement, as well as for hobbyist streamers, where interruptions might end the broadcast and cause the audience to switch to something else.

Usage-Based Pricing

A pricing model where users pay only for the resources they use by streaming hour. Usage-Based Pricing offers transparency and cost-effectiveness, ensuring users are billed fairly based on actual usage rather than on a fixed rate.
