Stream to Facebook Live From Your PC
Go live on Facebook from a PC with cameras, scenes and a lower third for your name. Add the Facebook stream key once and keep your recording on the computer.
The short answer
Facebook Live works from Streamdzy with a stream key from your Facebook page or profile. Add it under Settings, Go live, and tick Facebook with the other places.
How to do it in Streamdzy
- Add each platform once under Settings, Go live and paste its stream key. The key is kept encrypted on your PC.
- Tick the places you want on and press Go live. Your PC encodes the show once and sends it to each one.
- Watch the scene, the chat and the connection in one window. Press a scene or an alert whenever you need it.
- Press Stop when you are done. The recording of the whole show is already saved on your PC.
What to know first
Your upload speed is the real limit: every place needs its own copy of your picture. The installer is for Windows; Mac and Linux builds are not published yet. Run the upload speed test before a long show.
Questions
Why does my Facebook stream start but show no picture?
Usually the key is old or the place is not turned on. Copy a fresh key from Facebook, paste it again, and check the place is ticked before you press Go live.
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.
