This page describes an example use case: an illustrative scenario written to show how a team could set up multistreaming. It is not a customer story, and it does not describe a real organization or real results.
A community tournament organizer runs weekend events from a small venue. A production switcher mixes game feeds, casters and graphics, and the organizer wants the show on Twitch, YouTube and Kick, plus an RTMP endpoint supplied by a media partner. Sending a separate high-bitrate stream to each destination from the venue would exceed the venue's upload capacity.
The switcher or vMix sends a single 1080p60 stream over RTMP, or over SRT where the venue network is less predictable.
Twitch, YouTube, Kick and a custom RTMP endpoint all receive the same feed, with titles and categories updated together.
Unified multichat lets casters and moderators see messages from several platforms in one place and show them on stream.
Producers, casters and moderators work from the same account using team seats.
Connect Twitch, YouTube and Kick, and add the partner's RTMP URL and key as a custom destination.
Point the switcher or vMix at the closest edge location (US East, US West, EU Central, Tokyo or São Paulo) using RTMP, or SRT if the venue connection drops packets.
Go live once. Watch bitrate, audio levels and jitter in the monitor while the relay delivers the feed everywhere.
A 1080p60 broadcast across several destinations needs more than the free tier. Professional ($49 per month billed monthly, or $39 per month billed annually) supports up to 10 channels, 150 streaming hours a month, 20 hours of cloud recording and up to 3 seats. Business ($149 per month billed monthly, or $119 per month billed annually) adds 40+ channels, 4K, API access, white-label options and up to 10 seats for larger crews.
Plan details are on the pricing page. Plan limits such as channels, hours and seats are the same ones listed there.
