With Pairs for scheduled streams, you can add your channels to someone else's stream. The event will go live on all channels, making collaborative streaming easier than ever.
How to add your channels to a scheduled event
Access the invite link provided by the host.
If you don't have a Restream account, enter an email.
If you already have an account, click Log In instead and enter your credentials.
Click Add your channels.
Add the channels that you would like to connect to the stream and toggle them on.
Click Save.
Requirements
You can pair up to 3 channels for free (including paid ones, like Facebook pages or Custom RTMP channels).
You can only pair your channels before a scheduled event starts, not while it's live.
You have the option to pair and join the stream on-screen only if your host is streaming with Restream Studio.
If you are paired to a stream from an encoder or a pre-recorded video, you cannot join on-screen, but the stream will automatically go live on your paired channels.
