LIVE Now!
Are you trying to manage going LIVE to multiple destinations and wish you didn't have to jump back and forth between tabs to view all your streams? Are you wanting to comment to peoples questions or drop a link in chat? Well, with LIVEpigeon, you can! You can easily view all your streams and even send and receive messages in chat. This is all accessible in the a place we call the "LIVE Now" section. This section is only accessible when your videos are LIVE, but it would be pretty hard to miss when it is available. Let's go through the features of the LIVE Now section!
Stream List
In the LIVE Now section, you will see a list of platforms that currently are currently streaming you LIVE prerecorded content. You can jump back and forth streams so that way you can monitor any comments coming through and even checkout your analytics in real time! If you want to end all your streams early, you can also do that as well by clicking the button labeled "Stop All Streams".
Comments
Comments are a great way to interact with your viewers! You can even add things like links in your comments, which can take users to a personal website or even to an online shop! Some users prefer to not comment at all from LIVEpigeon so that way it doesn't break the viewers immersion. Even if you decide not to comment on your videos, you can see all your viewers comments in this section within LIVEpigeon. This can be a great way to learn more about what your audience is talking about or asking questions about. That way, you can record more content talking about what your viewers are interested in and possibly even answer more of the questions they had on previous videos about the same subject.
Analytics
Analytics are a great way to keep track off the data of you streams. You can see how many comments have been so far, as well as being able to see when those comments were made. You can also see how long your video has been streaming and how long it has left.
Extra Features
There are just a few extra buttons available with most platforms. By clicking "Stop Stream", you will stop the stream on only the platform you are viewing currently. The rest of your destinations you are LIVE at will still be streaming. "Copy Link" and "View LIVE" are available for Facebook and YouTube and are pretty self explanatory! "Copy Link" automatically copies the link so you can paste it anywhere you want, while "View LIVE" takes you directly to Facebook or YouTube so you can view the stream from their platform.
Those were the main features of the LIVE Now section of LIVEpigeon. Next time you go LIVE or schedule a stream, try tuning in from here to see if some of the features will be helpful to you when going LIVE!
