Ensuring a consistent live streaming schedule is paramount to building a successful streaming channel. However, that is not easy because life can sometimes interrupt your live stream schedule.

In this guide, we’ll help you set up and live stream pre-recorded videos on popular platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, and more.

What is Live Stream Pre-recorded Video?

Live stream pre-recorded video refers to the practice of broadcasting videos you previously recorded as if they were being streamed live. It allows you to maintain a consistent streaming schedule when you’re busy with an important event or simply just want to have a day off to relax and regain positive energy.

How to Live Stream Pre-recorded video

Our live stream pre-recorded video feature is super easy to use. Just follow 4 steps in the guide below.

Step 1: Choose the platform you want to stream directly like Facebook, Twitch, Youtube. If you want to connect to other platforms such as Nimo TV, DLive, Steam, etc., use the RTMP(s) feature. Then click on the Video file.

Step 2: Select the pre-recorded video you want to stream. Wait a little bit for our app to compress the video.
