Connect Streamdzy to YouTube in Five Minutes
A short guide to sending your first YouTube Live stream from Streamdzy: the key, a camera, a test and go live.
The short answer
Create the YouTube event, copy the key, paste it into Streamdzy, connect a camera, test, and go live.
How to do it in Streamdzy
- Open the platform’s live or creator settings and copy the stream key and address it shows.
- In Streamdzy, open Settings, Go live, add the place once, and paste the key.
- Connect a camera or a phone, then run a short private test and listen to the sound.
- Tick the places for the show and press Go live. Keep the key private.
What to know first
Platform menus change. If a name has moved, search the platform’s own help for “stream key”. Each key is kept encrypted on your PC.
Questions
Do I need to create the event first?
Yes. Create the live event in YouTube Studio so you have a key.
Want all of this in one app?
Streamdzy is a free streaming and recording app for Windows: several cameras, your phone as a camera, going live to many places at once, and recording first so a bad connection never costs you the show.
