Channels — Connect Your Streaming Platforms

What's New

You can now connect your streaming platform accounts directly to playout.video and manage all your destinations from a single dashboard.

OAuth-Connected Platforms

Connect with one click — no stream keys to copy, no manual setup:

• YouTube — sign in with Google, select your channel, and you're ready to stream

• Twitch — connect your Twitch account and go live instantly

• Facebook — stream to your profile or any Page you manage

• LinkedIn — broadcast to your personal profile or Company Page

Each connected platform automatically handles authentication and token refresh. When the connection expires, playout.video prompts you to re-authorize — no interruption to your running streams.

Custom RTMP Destinations

For platforms without OAuth, add a custom RTMP destination using the platform's stream URL and stream key:

• Instagram

• TikTok

• X (Twitter)

• Telegram (RTMPS)

• Amazon Live

• Rumble

• DLive

• Trovo

• Dailymotion

• And any other RTMP/RTMPS-compatible platform

Both RTMP and RTMPS (TLS-encrypted) URLs are supported.

25 Platforms Supported

Between OAuth-connected and custom RTMP destinations, playout.video supports 25 streaming platforms out of the box. All destinations are included on every plan at no extra cost.

Manage Channels Per Organization

Channels belong to your organization, not your personal account. Every team member with the appropriate role can see and use connected channels — no need to share credentials.

How to Connect

1. Go to Channels in your dashboard

2. Click Connect next to the platform you want

3. For OAuth platforms: sign in and authorize

4. For custom RTMP: paste your stream URL and key

Connected channels appear automatically when setting up restream targets for your live streams.
