FAQ

Do I have any video controls?


You have full control over the video, which means you can:

  • Pause/play the video.

  • Scroll through the video.

  • Loop the video to continue playing from the top after it's over.

  • Maximize the video.

  • Replace/hide it from the stream.

  • Adjust volume and/or provide live commentary.

Do videos maintain their quality?


Yes, the outgoing stream will maintain the original video's quality, although the preview may appear lower in quality to optimize Studio performance. However, make sure your video clip aligns with your Studio settings. For instance, playing a 4K video clip on a 720p stream may result in reduced quality.

💡 Enhance your stream with graphics like overlays, backgrounds, and more.
