Hello everyone, it’s PRISM Live Studio, a global live streaming app.

PRISM Live Studio allows streamers to multicast to a number of various broadcasting platforms.

In addition to the recent update on PRISM Mobile, the multicast (simulcast) feature is now available on PRISM PC version as well; you can broadcast live-stream to up to six different platforms

But before you do that, you first need to connect your channels to PRISM Live Studio.

There are two ways to sync your channels with PRISM Live Studio. One is by simply signing in platforms to which you like to stream.

The other one is with RTMP URL, a method we provide additionally for those platforms that do not support open API. Once it’s done, each platform is added to the channel list on the screen.

And unless you bother to disconnect the link, the interlock information is saved and lets you have a quick start for later use. Once it’s done, each platform is added to the channel list on the screen.

  • This will be updated to support multicast within May; if you want to simulcast on NAVER TV, please use RTMP URL for the time being.

# RTMP URL Method

Connect channels by using Stream URL, aka Stream KEY, that is distinctly provided by each platform.

This way, it’s not possible to check the broadcasting status of your stream in real time when going live.

The information of the linked channels via RTMP URL is automatically synchronized with the PRISM account on Mobile/PC PRISM Live Studio.
