Hello there! We would need to still be streaming live to cover all the AMAZING features of both platforms. 😁 The answer is yes, you can use "green screen" on both platforms. Here's some more info: Streamyard - streamyard.com/resources/docs/green-screen/ Restream Studio - support.restream.io/en/articles/4842124-how-to-use-virtual-camera-chroma-key-with-studio

Not being able to host video files on the cloud without paying full price was the deal breaker for me with restream. Streamyard lets me do that in the free plan. I’ll be upgrading soon and looking forward to more features. Good video thanks ladies!

[@anyarazina6919]

Luria, thanks for a wonderful video! So many great points. I read through the comments here and just wanted to pin a couple of FAQs from the thread: 📍 Restream allows you to Record Only by toggling off all the channels and clicking Go Live. You can then access the video in the recording, and it stays there for 15 -30 days, depending on your plan. 📍 Scheduling recorded videos to go live (or previous streams to replay) is one of my personal favorites. 📍 There is a way to play a video from your laptop (any length) using the local source button under a Guest button. 📍 Restream works with OBS and Ecamm, and even Zoom. The new feature allows you to pull your Zoom webinar directly into the Studio and add all the overlays/captions/comments etc. 📍 We have 24/7 stellar Support with real humans responding in under 4 minutes. Onboarding or tech issue - we got your back!

[@LiveStreamingPros]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@easyislander]

I think that Restream support is a little bit better also than Streamyard. They are responsive even at late nights when everyone is sleeping.

[@easyislander]

I'm a Streamyard user. Been using for a year. But one thing about Streamyard, they don't have tech support. Well they do , but it sorely lacking. Restream's tech support hands down is the best. They are patient and want you to get the best out of their software. Streamyard, although easy, just doesn't cut it when it comes to tech support.

[@biggrev]

new... I think i will be choosing Restream! I will check out your videos. but I have a question. What if I have laptop that is a few years old? Does the camera I use effect how the videos are streamed live? Also, what camera do you use?

[@dtcwinemarketingheroes]

NEW - Great comparison. I am looking to do the edit destinations mid-stream. I have been googling how to do this but I think I don't have the correct search terms. Basically, I wan the first 15 minutes to be public on FB and YT but for members, I want them to watch in the member's group. And, in this member's group, it would be a WordPress page with the stream running. I assume this is possible - no? Also, if we do it that way, how do we cover off chat when we do this? Thanks and really enjoying deep diving into your materials. M

I use a Apple M1 laptop with my 810 mini pro Iso. I’m trying to find out how to handle a client zoom conference & stream to Facebook at the same time. I can’t connect into a router and have to use the clients wifi. I spoke to Blackmagic & was told my solution might be to use my old 2013 MacBook as another source to connect to for the zoom conference.. I also have a 9” external monitor. Yet I have a Pelican case I modified to hold my 810 & a 7” monitor.. I also have the 15 key stream deck. Searching KZbin a few results to my question was I had to use or pay for StreamYard, Ecomm or Vimeo to do this?

[@jaynenxo8019]

I appreciate you guys doing this; and your respective companies allowing you to. It's super-hard to both be fun and objective, while fulfilling your professional obligations in advocating for your platform as the preferred option. You guys did great trying to balance the two, and I think it's a good examples for other companies who may be scared to do this kind of thing. Friendly competition is good for the market, and it's totally okay to "fight" for your team's market share... as consumers we're making these judgments anyway, might as well see how the companies themselves would "argue" for their platform directly against a competitor. It also probably helps that both of your platforms are actually good, so you each are probably less sensitive to criticisms because you know your respective platforms have legitimate strong value offerings. Again, great job you two! 🙌 PS - This is my second time watching, re-visiting after a few weeks of procrastinating 😅

[@TylersVariety]

Thank you for the informative video. It really gave insight into both platforms. For someone who isn't very "technical" when it comes to live-streaming nor has the internet speed to do it with OBS, for example, I have been enjoying using StreamYard. The fact it has been working for me thus far at the internet speed I have, and that it doesn't seem to lag or freeze (as of yet) is a winner in my book. And it's a bonus that StreamYard has a Facebook group (which I just learned about) where you can not only ask questions to get some help if needed, but it's another great way to meet and become friends with others. I look forward to upgrading my plan soon with StreamYard, and becoming a member of their Facebook group.

I have been using SY as I noted below and it has been flawless. The 1080 and sound quality is great (using rode xlr mic and rode procaster mixer). Never tried restream except for a few multi-streaming forwarding

[@RosBoundy]

I've been subscribed to BeLive for 2 years, and now to ECamm, Restream & Streamyard for coming up to the year (renewal time). With using a combination in a daily morning card reading, I have ECamm virtual camera into the BeLive streaming to FB page & YT channel, then have the ECamm simulcasting via Restream to the 4 locations of 2 FB, Twitch & Periscope. So, SY is now only being used sporadically to keep up with the updates. I need to be deciding very shortly which 2 main options I continue with. Four full subscriptions is a tad costly!

[@LiveStreamingPros]

Wow, yeah, that's a lot! If you're comfortable with Ecamm and Restream, you should be able to do everything from that combo. Also, you know that Periscope is going away, right? Have you decided what you're going to use instead?

[@RosBoundy]

@@LiveStreamingPros no idea yet, as I have'nt made the time to research what the options are yet.

Well, if nothing else, you'll want to download anything from Periscope that you want to save...it'll close down at the end of March 2021!

[@danielecampoli1885]

Super nice review!! It should be noticed that Restream offers high-Res audio feature for musicians and the audio level of every “guest” can be adjusted on its window. This is very useful for quick audio corrections like “echoes”.

[@ashantiradix]

I've used Wirecast pro for many years now but found Rendezvous lacking for live guest interviews. I opted for Restream over Streamyard not became of features as I found them more or less identical but, I simply preferred the Restream interface. Inviting a guest into a restream broadcast however, I was told that in Streamyard, you have the option to use a Greenscreen.. Something not present in Restream it appears. I think this is a feature that has been missed in all comparisons between the two platforms as some people like this feature. Yes you can achieve the greenscreen effect using OBS Virtual cam but as Streamyard has this already built in, I think this should be highlighted. Great review though, I love it. Keep up the great work!

[@TracyAllenVideos]

Great job ladies! I am a ReStream user right now but thinking about changing over to StreamYard. I'd like to know (I don't know how to say this...) you have to have a really powerful internet signal with ReStream and I'm wondering if StreamYard is the same? I have one person on the show that I produce that seem to always have problems with freezing or sound issues. When he is on Zoom, it's not as bad. I love the ticker on StreamYard and it's less expensive than ReStream.

[@RotterStudios]

Hi Tracy, the problem is probably on your user's end. make sure they aren't on wifi...have them connect to ethernet cable from modem, or they just have slow service.

[@GiftofLifeMichigan]

Zoom has a lower bitrate or resolution or something than livestreaming software like SY and RS. That's why people who have no issues with Zoom can have issues with other livestreaming platforms. The issue is their own internet connection or computer speed.

[@terryalston5512]

Thanks ladies. It helped me make an intelligent decision.

Echoing @IAMTALLBOY, great comparison video. One thing that popped up I"m guessing that came after the video was made is with LinkedinLive/ReStream. Re-Stream has made it possible through them to enable auto caption. This is huge!!! Before the only option is to edit and upload your Livestream.. which takes away the natural charms of watching it Live when you need to repost it. My hope is both StreamYard and ReStream will offer transitions as an option (As of this typing StreamYard does not have plans for it, and Restream is looking into it ) The huge thing I love with both is StreamYard/ReStream do a better job than ~ Level 3 (vMix, eCamm) are posting live chat comments. As of this typing vMix still does not have the API from Linkedin to post the chat comments. Can you tell we're fired up after listening. :) Great job @LSP and Melanie !!!

[@afcbpodcast]

This a great video! As a Streamyard user, I have seen Melanie on her own channel who is fantastic. Got a couple of questions... 1) Restream still has no ability to record a file only unless you go Private and then download the file afterwards, is that correct? 2) Is there a definitive guide of the different layouts available in Restream? I've love to see a video of the different layouts available for 3 to 6 people. 3) The feature I'm finding so handy in Streamyard is Sharing a Video straight from desktop. I have previously shared a pre-recorded hour long video "as live" and have then been able to overlay the live comments over the top, which provides nice interaction. The risk is though - if my internet connection goes, I'm screwed. So, in Restream, if you schedule an uploaded video (great feature), can you go in and relay live comments on top at all? It *seems* like the transitions and caption animations look a little classier on Restream, and of course there's the Analytics - which look great. Tough decision!

Embedding? Can you embed this into your website?

[@LiveStreamingPros]

Embed the video? You could do that, for example using the KZbin link, but then your audience won't be able to comment live. 🤷‍♀️

[@VAULTERMAGAZINE]

@@LiveStreamingPros I have done so with Facebook and it works great. But, they have to keep up and give people the ability to embed the video into their own website automatically. Once you embed, it is there and so are the next videos.

[@LiveStreamingPros]

Since Facebook is focused on keeping people on their platform, I don't expect to see this any time soon, but it couldn't hurt to submit the feature request, right? 👍

[@VAULTERMAGAZINE]

@@LiveStreamingPros Yes, I already used Facebook and it worked fine. They have an embed feature, but you have to do it over and over again. I was talking about making sure that Restream has an embed feature.

I am currently using Stream Yard. I recently registered on Real Stream but I could not go live to 30 platforms on the free version. So how can I be able to go live on 10 platforms on the free version? I would use the paid version after I have reasonably mastered how to navigate Real Stream.

NEW! I will watch all your videos tonight :)))

[@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO]

Melany has fangs!!!! Same here! Let's go FANG FAM!!!! Also, awesome video! Way to also keep it neutral too!!!!

[@LiveStreamingPros]

Yay! Thank you! 😎 Are you using one of these to stream?

[@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO]

@@LiveStreamingPros Yes! I'm using Restream. I'm both a Dj and a Gamer and I stream on Twitch and KZbin. I use Restream because of it's simplicity and I've been getting by with the free subscription since I only stream on Twitch and KZbin. Streaming on Facebook has been quite a challenge due to their strict guidelines and policies however I'm sure that will be fixed later on down the line. BTW, new subscriber here! WooooHoooo!

[@LiveStreamingPros]

Awesome, thanks so much! ❤️

[@zerochance7708]

Is it possible to record the live session in that way that I have two videos: 1 with all the added captions and 1 without any captions etc.?

[@LiveStreamingPros]

Not using these tools, you'd need something like vMix for that...

[@MichaelDaniels]

Very well done. How about you two come join my game show. I know I have asked you a million times LOL

[@RosBoundy]

Definite YES to that!

[@LiveStreamingPros]

LOL, there's just not enough time to do everything we want! 🥺

[@MichaelDaniels]

@@LiveStreamingPros I get it!

[@mamapreneur]
