13 articlesCustom Layouts: Build Your Own Scene in Live Studio
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.
Record-Only Mode: Capture Your Show Without Going Live
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.
Add RTMP Source: Plug In Hardware Encoders, Phones, and Remote Cameras
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.
Live Studio: Go Live with Cameras, Guests, and Layouts
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.
Playlist Shuffle Mode
Shuffle your playlist items automatically after each loop pass. Keep your 24/7 stream fresh without manually reordering content.
Inline Playlist Switching & Auto-Sync Edits
Two playlist upgrades: inline switching lets you temporarily play different content, and auto-sync pushes playlist edits to your live stream without restarting.
Composition Editor: Audio Visualizer & Save-and-Apply
Two powerful additions to the Composition Editor: a real-time audio visualizer overlay and instant Save & Apply for live streams.
Knowledge Base, Help Center & Blog
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.
Kick Integration & RTMPS Support
Stream to Kick with OAuth login and broadcast to any platform that requires RTMPS: secure RTMP connections are now supported on all destinations.

A step-by-step wizard that guides you from sign-up to your first live stream. Connect a platform, upload content, build a playlist, and go live: all in one flow.

A redesigned visual timeline that shows exactly what's playing and what's coming next. Plus a new drag-and-drop playlist editor with real-time change tracking.
Composition Editor and Overlays for Your Live Stream
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.
