First Stream Checklist With Streamdzy

Everything to check before your first stream with Streamdzy: the key, the camera, the sound, the connection and a test.

The short answer

Check the key and place, the camera and its light, the sound, the upload speed and the Health check. Run a short private test, then go live.

How to do it in Streamdzy

  1. Open the platform’s live or creator settings and copy the stream key and address it shows.
  2. In Streamdzy, open Settings, Go live, add the place once, and paste the key.
  3. Connect a camera or a phone, then run a short private test and listen to the sound.
  4. 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

How long should the test be?

Want all of this in one app?
