Just decided to switch to StreamYard last week for hosting a video interview show I produce weekly. I have been using Zoom. Yet learning to go live on StreamYard is well worth my study and attention, to reduce delays and editing. Thanks very much for this excellent demonstration. I took careful notes. You covered the basics splendidly and clearly!

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome - glad it worked well for you! 👍

That was fantastic thanks Justin. It would be great to have a video that put all streaming stuff (Streamyard, KZbin, Zoom, eCamm etc) in perspective. By the way it seems like Streamyard can act like an Atem Mini when your using internet-connected devices, not just cameras.
