00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.940
In this video, I'll show you how to connect a Restream feed right into your platform.

2
00:00:06.940 --> 00:00:13.500
So sometimes there's cases where you may just want to embed your Restream feed right into

3
00:00:13.500 --> 00:00:15.040
your platform.

4
00:00:15.040 --> 00:00:19.340
Now you can also do this by streaming from Restream to YouTube and YouTube could be embedded

5
00:00:19.340 --> 00:00:20.720
in your platform.

6
00:00:20.720 --> 00:00:24.000
But there are use cases where you don't necessarily need it to go to YouTube and you just want

7
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:26.140
to keep it a little bit simpler.

8
00:00:26.140 --> 00:00:33.260
So Restream does have the option to embed the live feed on any website, including your

9
00:00:33.260 --> 00:00:34.540
Tri platform.

10
00:00:34.540 --> 00:00:37.660
So let's jump into the dashboard and I'll show you how to set this up.

11
00:00:37.660 --> 00:00:40.860
I'm going to click add content here at the top.

12
00:00:40.860 --> 00:00:41.860
We'll zoom in.

13
00:00:41.860 --> 00:00:45.540
I'm just going to call this Restream test.

14
00:00:45.540 --> 00:00:50.900
I will go over here to content type and I can choose Restream embed.

15
00:00:50.900 --> 00:00:53.860
So you'll see Restream embed right there.

16
00:00:53.860 --> 00:00:58.640
And now it's going to ask for a Restream embed token.

17
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:02.760
So to get this, we can head over into Restream.

18
00:01:02.760 --> 00:01:06.220
And here I'm going to go ahead and schedule an event.

19
00:01:06.220 --> 00:01:09.580
But you can also do this by simply going live in the studio.

20
00:01:09.580 --> 00:01:14.820
So I'll click schedule event, I'm going to use the Restream studio and we'll say test

21
00:01:14.820 --> 00:01:15.820
stream.

22
00:01:15.820 --> 00:01:20.100
Next, I'm gonna turn everything off here just for the test.

23
00:01:20.100 --> 00:01:24.760
But of course, you could also stream this to YouTube or Facebook, and then also have

24
00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:26.820
it embedded a tribe as well.

25
00:01:26.820 --> 00:01:27.820
Click Create.

26
00:01:27.820 --> 00:01:28.820
Yes.

27
00:01:28.820 --> 00:01:33.180
All right, so here's my new event.

28
00:01:33.180 --> 00:01:39.020
I'm going to zoom in here and you'll see there's a little icon here with the two arrows.

29
00:01:39.020 --> 00:01:44.800
And that is what you're going to click on to get the embed code for your stream.

30
00:01:44.800 --> 00:01:50.160
So now you can actually embed this on any site that you want.

31
00:01:50.160 --> 00:01:54.340
But what we've made it really easy is you just scroll down here and you'll see something

32
00:01:54.340 --> 00:01:57.920
that says token equals and then a bunch of letters and numbers.

33
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:01.480
So you're just going to grab this like that.

34
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:07.560
You can do it with before the end, or with that as well, it doesn't really matter too

35
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:08.560
much.

36
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:12.840
So you can click copy here, when you go back to Restream, and I'm going to hit paste.

37
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:14.800
There goes the token.

38
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:19.560
I'll go ahead and turn live chat on and I'll hit save.

39
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:25.720
I'm going to click here and click view.

40
00:02:25.720 --> 00:02:29.160
And you'll see that the player is now embedded.

41
00:02:29.160 --> 00:02:34.680
And I also have chat here on the right so I can chat on the right here.

42
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:38.280
And so at this point, I can also go ahead and test the streams.

43
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:41.800
Let's jump over to the Restream.

44
00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:52.320
I'm going to jump into the studio here, enter the studio.

45
00:02:52.320 --> 00:02:56.800
For this test, I am simply going to show this background video here.

46
00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:00.220
And I'm going to go ahead up here and click go live.

47
00:03:00.220 --> 00:03:05.160
So this will start broadcasting to all the destinations I've set, as well as the Restream

48
00:03:05.160 --> 00:03:10.120
player, which is now on the site here.

49
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:11.720
And there you see the stream is playing.

50
00:03:12.640 --> 00:03:17.040
Now, what's cool about this is my users, if they're watching this page, they don't have

51
00:03:17.040 --> 00:03:19.600
to refresh the page for it to show up.

52
00:03:19.600 --> 00:03:24.120
So they could just be like they arrived early to the event, they can just be on the page,

53
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:25.120
they can wait.

54
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:29.120
And as soon as it starts broadcasting, it'll just simply start sending your video into

55
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:33.680
Restream, into Restream, into your tri platform.

56
00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:38.960
And so let me just show you at the end, what happens when you finish your stream.

57
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:44.840
So because this way that Restream works is it only works for the live piece, so you can,

58
00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:49.320
while you're streaming live, it can be in your player in your tribe site, and people

59
00:03:49.320 --> 00:03:51.480
can be chatting and watching it on your site.

60
00:03:51.480 --> 00:03:56.840
But when it's finished, we do have to take one or two more steps to show the replay.

61
00:03:56.840 --> 00:03:58.840
So let me show you how to do that really quick.

62
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:02.040
So we'll jump into the desktop here.

63
00:04:02.040 --> 00:04:04.560
Let's go ahead and end the stream.

64
00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:09.480
Click OK.

65
00:04:09.480 --> 00:04:14.400
Now Restream makes this really easy because you can go to the top here, and you can click

66
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:17.120
download recording.

67
00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:21.800
And we're just going to go to this top version here, once it's processed and click download

68
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:23.400
full video.

69
00:04:23.400 --> 00:04:25.480
There we go.

70
00:04:25.480 --> 00:04:29.440
So once it's processed, this video is only two minutes as a test.

71
00:04:29.440 --> 00:04:33.560
If you do have longer videos, it could take an extra few minutes to wait for this.

72
00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:36.120
So we'll click download video.

73
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:39.400
Okay, now the video has been downloaded.

74
00:04:39.400 --> 00:04:43.680
What I do at this point is just go back to my dashboard, I'm going to click the pencil

75
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:48.840
icon on that same piece of content, it says Restream test, and now instead of using an

76
00:04:48.840 --> 00:04:54.720
embed for the live portion, I'm just going to go up to the very top and hit upload video.

77
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:59.440
Now I can choose a video from my computer here.

78
00:04:59.440 --> 00:05:00.000
I'll choose the.

79
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.760
Restream file that I just downloaded.

80
00:05:05.280 --> 00:05:06.800
And I'm going to let it upload.

81
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:12.080
So what this means is, uh, while it's, it's going to upload now into the site and

82
00:05:12.080 --> 00:05:14.920
it's going to get archived forever on your platform.

83
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:20.840
So this is using all of the cool, uh, upload, uh, hosting, uh, bandwidth and

84
00:05:20.840 --> 00:05:22.760
transcoding and all that, that tribe does.

85
00:05:23.080 --> 00:05:26.240
Uh, it's going to do that all for you, um, with this Restream file.

86
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.480
And so that way, if you ever close the Restream account or those recordings

87
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:34.280
disappear, you've got this archived now on your platform forever.

88
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:38.960
And if you ever need it in the future, you can always just come right into here

89
00:05:38.960 --> 00:05:42.240
into, uh, to tribe and click download video.

90
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:45.520
So that file is always accessible to you in the future as well.

91
00:05:45.520 --> 00:05:48.300
So you've kind of archived it for life and there you go.

92
00:05:48.300 --> 00:05:52.320
There's our video and a nice side benefit of this.

93
00:05:52.320 --> 00:05:58.000
If I hit save and we go back to our player here and I'm going to click

94
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:08.040
refresh, you'll see that it shows here in the videos actually, uh, shown here

95
00:06:08.080 --> 00:06:13.720
people can hit play and they can watch this, um, video forever on this platform

96
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:13.880
now.

97
00:06:13.880 --> 00:06:18.160
So this is completely disconnected from Restream and it's now hosted on your

98
00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:18.800
platform.

99
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:23.160
One of the nice side benefits here on the top, right, is you'll see that that chat

100
00:06:23.200 --> 00:06:27.520
that happened while I was streaming is still attached to this recording.

101
00:06:27.520 --> 00:06:33.400
So let's say I streamed, uh, this webinar or a coaching session and I had a bunch

102
00:06:33.400 --> 00:06:37.320
of people chatting, uh, in the, in the comments while I was streaming, when I'm

103
00:06:37.320 --> 00:06:42.760
finished, when I put the replay there, all those comments from the live, uh, time

104
00:06:42.760 --> 00:06:46.640
that I, the live stream are now also available to the people watching the

105
00:06:46.640 --> 00:06:47.280
replay.

106
00:06:47.760 --> 00:06:51.880
This is really cool because if you were hosting this on zoom, for example, and

107
00:06:51.880 --> 00:06:55.520
chat was happening in zoom, and then you had a different chat on your replay

108
00:06:55.520 --> 00:06:58.480
site, people wouldn't be able to see each other's comments.

109
00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:03.040
And so just one of the things that's nice about this is it helps build a better

110
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:06.160
sense of community for the people who were alive and the people who are

111
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:07.080
watching the replay.

112
00:07:07.080 --> 00:07:09.400
And so you can see all of that in a single chat.

113
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:14.880
So that is how to manage and put a Restream live streamed into your tribe

114
00:07:14.880 --> 00:07:17.280
platform, and then also how to archive it.

115
00:07:17.320 --> 00:07:21.200
Once that stream is finished, if you have any questions, you can always email us

116
00:07:21.200 --> 00:07:25.640
at help at tribe, social.io, and we look forward to helping the future.
