Adding an RTMP input source

RTMP is widely used as an output format from Streaming and Production applications but it may be useful to know that using QuickLink StudioPro, you can utilise RTMP as an input source. This can come in handy for Commentary workflows where you need to bring high-quality sports feeds into your productions.

Select a scene and give it a friendly name (i.e. RTMP Source).

Click Add Source in the Sources window.

In the Input field, type in your RTMP source address. The format of which will be rtmp:// followed by the IP address : the port / the name of the stream. It'll look something like this; rtmp://81.187.201.64:1923/stream1/streamfeed. This can depend on the source.
