Stream With a Delay Your Viewers Can Watch
Let viewers watch a few seconds to minutes behind your live picture, so a stall skips nothing and a mistake can be cut before they see it.
The short answer
Record first sends your show with a delay you choose, from 10 seconds to 30 minutes. Your recording is always the master copy, and viewers watch the delayed version.
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
How much delay can I choose?
From about 10 seconds up to 30 minutes. A longer delay gives you more time to cut a mistake, but chat is further behind you.
Want all of this in one app?
