Embed a live stream

After the stream infrastructure has been built and the stream status has changed to Ready, the stream URL (RTMP, SRT) and stream key (RTMP only) for the stream will be available. With this stream information, you can set up your encoder. Then, you can embed and start broadcasting content through the stream.

A Broadcast Live stream can be embedded in either a JWP player or a third-party offering, such as another player, a platform, or application.
