Hi,

I assume I am missing something really simple here so I hope someone can help.

I work at a school and we would like to live stream some events to parents who cannot attend in person. What we would like to do is create a stream where we can share a YouTube link and that one link works for all the events. This would save us having to email all parents every time an event is streamed.

I have added a stream key into vMix and I can do the streaming without any issues however the share code is different for each event even if the stream key doesn't change.

Hope that makes sense. Any suggestions on what I'm missing or if this is in fact possible.

Cheers, Scott.

Did you try creating a custom stream key in the stream settings?

This is the way how YT works. You can use the same stream key but each time you end an event in YT it will produce a recording and thus a new link.
You would need to keep the live stream running for the entire time and fill it with a banner, still, or pause video and switch to action once you have to show something.
Other services will be simpler but paid.

You may want to create a landing html page where you can direct the users to and add the YT links to this. This way you have a central reference to point users to and can update that single page once there is something new.
