Stream Configuration Settings
STREAM TEMPLATE (OPTIONAL)
Select a template created in Competition Settings to auto-fill all settings below. Templates are pre-configured at the competition level and save time when creating multiple streams with similar configurations.
STREAM NAME
Give your stream a descriptive name such as "Main Camera" or "Field View". This name helps you identify the stream when managing multiple streams for one match.
STREAM INPUT
Select an input from the dropdown. Inputs must be created in the Streaming tab before they appear here. CRITICAL: A stream cannot start without an input assigned. This is the video feed coming into LIGR Live from your camera or streaming software.
STREAM SIZE
Choose your output resolution:
* 1080p
* 720p
DESTINATIONS
Select up to 3 destinations where this stream will be sent. Destinations must be created in the Streaming tab first. Common destinations include YouTube, Facebook, and custom RTMP/SRT endpoints.
OVERLAY
Assign an overlay to this stream if an overlay already exists for the match. The overlay is the graphics package that displays on top of your stream - scoreboards, player names, statistics, etc.
IDLE IMAGE
Upload an image to display when the stream is idle - before the match starts or after it ends.
FRAMES PER SECOND
Set the FPS for the stream output. This determines how many frames per second the stream will broadcast at.
VIDEO BITRATE
Set the video bitrate. Higher bitrate means better quality but requires more bandwidth.
REGION
Select the server region closest to your physical location for best performance.
INPUT STREAM VOLUME
Pre-configure the audio level for the incoming video feed.
MIX INPUT AUDIO CHANNELS
Toggle on to mix left and right audio channels together.
MUTE INPUT AUDIO CHANNELS
Mute the left or right audio channel if needed.
START OVERLAY AS HIDDEN
Toggle on to prevent the overlay from appearing automatically when the stream starts. If enabled, you'll need to manually show graphics from the Control Room.
Auto Stream Settings
Automate when your stream starts and stops:
Stream Start
Set the stream to start X minutes before the scheduled match time. For example, set it to start 5 or 10 minutes before kickoff.
Go Live
Set destinations to start sending X minutes before match time. This controls when your stream actually goes live to platforms like YouTube.
Stream Stop
Set the stream to automatically stop X minutes after the match ends.
Highlight and Recording Settings
GENERATE HIGHLIGHTS
MUST be toggled on if you want highlights created from match events. If this toggle is off, no highlights will be generated regardless of other settings.
AUTO-PUBLISH HIGHLIGHTS
Toggle on to automatically publish highlights to connected social media accounts the moment they finish rendering.
STORE MATCH RECORDING
Toggle on to archive a full recording of the stream. NOTE: This automatically enables if Generate Highlights is toggled on.
Completing Stream Creation
After configuring all settings, click CREATE to create the stream. The stream is now added to your match and appears in the expanded match view with its configuration details visible.
The stream will not start automatically after creation - streams remain idle until explicitly started. You must either start the stream manually from the Stream View page or configure Auto Stream settings to start it automatically at the scheduled time.
