Ready for the big time? So are we! To get you started we’ve put together this step-by-step guide so that you’ll be up and livestreaming before you can say “Lights. Camera. Action!”

 

Step 1: Open the Dolby On app and swipe right to find the livestream button.

  • Connect to WiFi. While a good cell data signal will do the trick, a strong WiFi connection will definitely give you the best results.

Step 2: Choose where you’d like to livestream to.

You have a few options to choose from:

  • Option 1: Log in to one of the social platforms integrated with Dolby On.
    iOS users can choose between YouTube, Twitch, or Facebook. For now, only Twitch is available for Android devices.
    But you can use the “Custom URL” option below to use other platforms.

Choose a Streaming Platform

  • Option 2: “Paste your own URL”
    Connect to even more platforms such as Vimeo and more with the “Custom URL” option.
    Simply enter the appropriate RTMP info and streaming key of your desired platform.
