If you have contracted live production, you can provide us with pre-recorded videos that we can play during your live stream, like:
- Video clips we play during transitions.
- Pre-recorded presentations.
Requirements for video files
Video clips (countdowns, transitions, sponsor ads..)
We need your videos to be formatted as follow:
- Format: .mp4
- Resolution: 720p (1280x720 px) or 1080p (1920×1080 px)
- Duration: maximum 5 minutes per clip.
- File size: maximum 100MB (see our compression recommendations here).
Pre-recorded presentation
We need your videos to be formatted as follow:
- Format: .mp4
- Resolution: 720p (1280x720 px) or 1080p (1920×1080 px)
- Duration: no limit. However we require 1 video per presentation, instead of a long video file containing all presentations.
- File size: maximum 1GB (see our compression recommendations here).
Tools you can use to pre-record
To record your videos, we recommend you use either of the following tools:
- Zoom.
- Webex.
- MS Teams.
- StreamYard.
- OBS.
Editing can then be done using your favourite video editing software (Camtasia or iMovie, for example).
Note: These are tools that can be used to record the video to be streamed.
Some of these tools are not recommended for streaming pre-recorded videos.
For example, while StreamYard can be used for recording, it should not be used
for streaming pre-recorded videos through SpotMe platform for performance
reasons. More information on the tools used for streaming pre-recorded videos is available in the Choosing your live streaming option article.
