Output stream

Output stream

The Output Stream element is the output point from Streamrun to the platforms you're streaming to, like Twitch, YouTube, or a custom RTMP server. Add up to six destinations to each Output Stream element and multistream to all of them with ease. Manage your destinations using the Output Destinations tool.

Settings

  • Actions
    • Go LIVE or OFFLINE with the output and all it's destinations. Configuration is switched automatically to live mode when you go LIVE.
  • Output type
    • Standard
      • Enable one or more output destinations, like YouTube, Kick, or your custom RTMP server. Manage destinations on the Output destinations page and refresh the list after modifications.
    • Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting
      • Stream to Twitch with multiple resolutions simultaneously. Select an Twitch account, and optimal stream configuration will be fetched from Twitch when you go live. If this Output type is selected, no other destination can be added to this Output stream element. Add a Splitter and another Output Stream element for multistreaming. Read more about Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting.
  • Encoding settings
    • Under Encoding settings, you can define the output resolution, framerate, and bitrate. These settings can usually be left as-is unless you have specific output requirements.
    • These settings are available for the Standard output type, but not for Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting, where settings are controlled by Twitch.

Destination status

Output destinations Output Stream elements with type Standard can include multiple output destinations. Elements of the type Twitch Enhanced Broadcasting can contain only Twitch, since the stream is encoded with multiple resolutions and qualities.

A red or green dot indicates whether each destination is currently live.

Output destination error If an output destination shows ERROR, the destination server has rejected the live stream after several retries. This is usually caused by:

  • Incorrect stream key
  • Mistyped RTMP URL if a custom destination
  • Outage or issue on the destination platform. Check Downdetector to see if other people are having issues with the platform as well
