Pause your recording mid-show, then resume: without breaking the live broadcast or creating multiple files. Useful for off-record breaks, sensitive segments, and clean post-production.
The import dialog now accepts Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, Vimeo and Twitch links, and every video's metadata can drive overlay templates with variables like {{title}} and {{author}}.
The Now Playing overlay automatically displays the title of the current video or audio track on your stream: updated in real time as content changes.
Your embedded player can now show a live 'N watching' badge, and your dashboard shows the same concurrent-viewer number in real time. Here is how the count works and how to turn it on.
Embedded players now stream with an adaptive bitrate ladder: multiple qualities generated live, with each viewer's player picking the best one their connection can carry, moment to moment.
Business workspaces can now embed their live channel on any website with a single iframe: adaptive quality, live rewind (DVR), domain restrictions, viewer counts, and rotatable player links.
You can now run several workspaces under one account, each with its own media library, team, plan, and billing. Create one from the workspace switcher and check out in a minute.
The new Channel tier turns the broadcast Calendar into a plan: schedule your programming, let the stream start and stop itself, swap playlists automatically, and multistream to 8 destinations.
playout.video pricing has been rebuilt around what you do, not just how sharp your video looks: a permanent Free plan, a new Channel tier for programmed channels, and annual pricing that saves real money.
Drop in a video shot against a green screen and the Composition Editor will key it out automatically. Tune sensitivity, clean up edges, and remove green spill: no plugins.
Save a complete overlay design as a template: logo, lower thirds, frame, Now Playing, the works, and apply it to entire playlists and calendar entries with one click.
Right-click any block on the Calendar and choose "Play now" to jump your live stream straight to that content. Useful for breaking news, last-minute swaps, and live show overrides.
Your stream can now auto-start before a calendar block begins and auto-stop after the last block ends. Run a windowed schedule: like a weekly show, without manually starting and stopping.
Calendar entries can now repeat: daily, weekly, monthly, with custom intervals. Set your weekly schedule once and it runs forever, or until you tell it to stop.
A new Scheduled Stream type with a full visual calendar. Drag videos, playlists, and compositions onto a timeline. Set recurrence. Run your channel like a TV network: without thinking about it again.
The Custom layout in Live Studio lets you drag, resize, and layer sources anywhere on the canvas. Save your own layouts and switch to them like the built-in presets.
Hit Record instead of Go Live. Capture a multi-guest, multi-layout show as a master file in your media library: without broadcasting to a single destination.
Live Studio now accepts RTMP sources. Bring in a hardware encoder, a smartphone with a streaming app, a drone, or a camera at a remote venue: and treat it like any other source on your canvas.
A new way to broadcast on playout.video. Bring on guests, switch between layouts, share your screen, and go live to every platform at once: straight from your browser.
Shuffle your playlist items automatically after each loop pass. Keep your 24/7 stream fresh without manually reordering content.
Two playlist upgrades: inline switching lets you temporarily play different content, and auto-sync pushes playlist edits to your live stream without restarting.
A full self-service support system: searchable help center with step-by-step guides, a blog with streaming tips, and this changelog you're reading now.
Choose between YouTube-optimized and Standard encoding profiles. YouTube mode follows Google's recommended bitrates for the best quality on YouTube. Standard mode uses lower bitrates suited for Twitch, Facebook, LinkedIn, and other platforms.
Stream to Kick with OAuth login and broadcast to any platform that requires RTMPS: secure RTMP connections are now supported on all destinations.
A visual editor for adding logos, text, and graphics on top of your live stream. Overlays are rendered in real time using a cloud-based compositor: no plugins, no OBS, no design tools needed.
Automate your 24/7 stream with one-time or recurring schedules. Start and stop streams, switch playlists, and control individual destinations, all on autopilot.
Import videos directly from YouTube into your library. Preview every conversion, re-process files on demand, and manage your media with full playback controls.
