Live Dashboard
The live dashboard is your control center while you’re streaming. Navigate to it from the pop-up or sidebar once you’ve started broadcasting, or go directly to /live.
It shows:
- Stream Monitor: a live preview of your ingest feed with connection quality and stream title
- Information Widget: current bitrate, resolution, FPS, codec, and viewer count with a bitrate history chart
- Multistream Status: toggle individual multistream destinations on and off
- Chat Panel: live chat with message input
- Stream Settings: announce or update your livestream, manage metadata, and moderate
The layout adjusts to your screen width. On wide screens all panels are visible at once, and on narrower screens it stacks vertically with a button to open chat in a separate window.
Widget popouts
Section titled “Widget popouts”Each dashboard widget is also available as a standalone page, useful for floating browser windows while you stream: for example, keeping stream settings in a small window on a second monitor.
All popout pages require you to be logged in. If you aren’t, the login flow will run in the same window before loading the widget.
