Overview
The Stream Monitoring page (also called Stream View) is your detailed control interface for individual match streams. This is where you start and stop streams, monitor input and destination health through bitrate indicators, adjust audio settings, control overlay assignment, and access Stream Analytics for performance data.
You access Stream View from the Matches section for each individual stream, not from the Streaming tab (which shows Multiview for monitoring multiple streams simultaneously).
How to Access Stream View
From the Matches section:
1. Click Matches in the left-hand dashboard
2. Find the match you want to stream
3. Click the arrow to expand the match view
4. Access View from the stream's Action Menu on the right-hand side
OR
4. Click the white space of a stream row to open the side control panel, then access View from there
5. A separate tab opens showing the Stream View page
Starting a Stream
1. In Stream View, click Start Stream
2. A confirmation notification appears: "Are you sure you want to start streaming?"
3. Click Yes, start stream
4. A notification appears in the preview window: "Stream is starting" with a progress bar
5. Once the preview shows LIVE, the stream is active
IMPORTANT: As soon as you click "Yes, start stream" you begin incurring charges for streaming and highlight services. Charges continue until you stop the stream.
Stream Stuck on "Starting"
A stream typically takes 2–3 minutes to initialize.
During startup:
* The stream indicator remains yellow
* A red progress bar appears below the video player in Stream View
* The preview may display a loading state
This is normal while the system initializes the stream and connects destinations.
If the stream remains in the yellow "starting" state for longer than 10 minutes, it is likely stuck.
Important:
* A stream cannot be manually stopped while it is still in the starting state.
* The Start/Stop button only becomes available once the stream is fully live or fully off.
If the stream appears stuck:
1. Allow at least 2–3 minutes for normal initialization.
2. If it remains yellow beyond ~10 minutes, create a new stream for the match.
3. Start the new stream and confirm it initializes correctly.
Creating a new stream resolves most rare initialization issues.
If multiple attempts fail, contact LIGR Support for investigation.
Stopping a Stream
1. Click the Stop button in the top right of the Stream View screen
2. Select Yes, stop stream in the confirmation dialog
3. Once confirmed, you stop incurring charges for streaming and highlights
You MUST manually stop the stream or use automation to stop it. Simply closing the browser tab does not stop the stream or billing.
Stream View Display
The Stream View page displays:
* Large video player showing the live stream (1920x1080 full screen)
* Match information: team names, time, period
* Competition name
* Auto Stream status
* Auto Graphics status (if overlay assigned)
* Stream name
Left Side Details
* Input information and bitrate status
* Input details (RTMP URL and stream key, or SRT link)
* Copy input details button
* Frame rate (cannot change while stream is live)
* Resolution (cannot change while stream is live)
* Region (cannot change while stream is live)
Bitrate Indicators
* Warning icon: No stream received
* Green with KBS value: Stream is being received
Right Side Details
* Destination information
* Destination details (RTMP URL and stream key, or SRT link)
* Copy destination details button
* Bitrate indicators for each destination
Top Right Actions Menu
* Stream Settings: Configure stream
* Stream Analytics: View Stream Session Analyzer (opens new tab showing input feed stability graph and performance details)
* LiveScore App: Open the LiveScore app
Starting and Stopping Destinations
TO START DESTINATIONS:
1. Check "Select All" checkbox above destinations
2. Click GO LIVE button (top right)
TO STOP DESTINATIONS:
1. Check the destination(s) you want to stop

Overlay Controls
Located directly below the video player on the Stream Monitoring page.
* Overlay assignment dropdown (reassign overlay for this stream)
* Refresh icon (immediately to the right of the overlay dropdown) – refreshes the overlay production URL for this stream
* Hide Graphics toggle (hides all graphics, shows only the clean stream)
NOTE: Overlay refresh is performed from the Stream Monitoring page. It cannot be refreshed from Match Center.
NOTE: If using external software like vMix or OBS, you may need to re-copy the updated production URL after refreshing the overlay.
NOTE: The Stream Monitor page is one of the primary locations where you can change overlay assignments for streams.
NOTE: When using external software like vMix or OBS with the overlay production URL, the "Hide Graphics" and "Start Overlay as Hidden" toggles do not affect overlay visibility. These settings only control graphics on LIGR-hosted streams.
Audio Settings
* Mix Audio toggle
* Mute Left/Right channels
* Input audio volume slider
Changing Stream Settings While Live
You can modify certain stream settings while your stream is live, but some settings require the stream to be stopped first.
SETTINGS YOU CAN CHANGE WHILE LIVE:
* Add or remove destinations
* Change overlay assignment
* Adjust audio settings (mix, mute, volume)
SETTINGS YOU CANNOT CHANGE WHILE LIVE:
* Frame rate
* Resolution
* Region
* Input assignment (the stream must be stopped first)
HOW TO ACCESS STREAM SETTINGS:
From the Matches section:
1. Expand the match.
2. Click the three-dot action menu next to the stream.
3. Select "Configure".
OR
From the Stream Monitoring page:
1. Click the three-dot menu in the top right.
2. Select "Stream Settings".
IMPORTANT: Stream Settings cannot be accessed from Match Center.
If you need to change frame rate, resolution, region, or input assignment, you must stop the stream, make the changes, then restart it.
Stream Monitoring Page vs Match Center
The Stream Monitoring page is your primary location for technical stream monitoring (bitrate, input status, destination status) and stream control.
Match Center is used for match-event visibility and highlight management during a live match. It is not the primary place to monitor stream health.
