What's New

Today we're launching the biggest update in playout.video's history, Live Studio.

Live Studio is a new stream type that lets you produce a real, interactive live show entirely in your browser. Bring on guests, share your screen, switch between professional layouts, drop in clips from your media library, and broadcast to every destination you've connected, all from one tab.

If you've been using playout.video to run a Live Channel (our 24/7 looping stream), you can now also go live in front of the camera. And if you've been wrestling with downloadable streaming software, capture cards, and per-guest invitations, Live Studio replaces all of it.

What's New

A new Shuffle toggle in the playlist panel that automatically reshuffles your playlist items after each loop pass.

We're Live 🚀

Today we're launching playout.video — a cloud platform that makes 24/7 live streaming simple for everyone. No dedicated hardware, no OBS, no technical expertise. Upload your content, build a playlist, connect your platforms, and go live.

Here's everything included from day one.

What's New

A completely redesigned visual timeline and playlist editor that give you full visibility and control over your stream's content.

How It Works

What's New

You can now automate stream operations with a built-in scheduling system. Set it once and let the platform handle the rest.

Five Action Types

What's New

The media library has been rebuilt from the ground up. Every interaction — uploading, browsing, searching, selecting, and organising files — is faster and more intuitive.

Drag-and-Drop Uploads

What's New

You can now import videos directly from YouTube into your playout.video library — no manual download required. Enter a YouTube URL, and the platform pulls the video, extracts metadata (title, thumbnail, duration), and adds it to your media library ready for playout.
