How to change the live session or stream settings

Once you have created a live stream or session, you can at any time access the session or stream's settings in order to make any necessary changes.

Note: Once a live session is created, you cannot change the type of the live session (in-person, virtual, hybrid) or the stream provider (SpotMe Sudio, RTMPS, Embed).

To access the settings, you will need to open the live session, and click on the Settings button in the top left of the screen:

From here, you can perform the following actions:

In the General tab, change the live session name and start time, copy the moderator permalink (for Studio and RTMPS streams), and copy the speaker permalink (available for RTMPS streams only).

In the Video tab, enable live interpretation if needed (and add the Interprefy project ID), and choose or not to show the full list of viewers (attendees) in the app.

In the Interactivity tab, enable or disable the interactivity options: Q&A, Polls, Claps, as explained in the Creating and configuring live sessions article, and configure your word cloud poll colors.

In the Design tab (available for SpotMe Studio streams only) you can add a background image for your Studio live stream, as explained in How to add a custom background to your stream article.

In the Live displays tab, for in-person and hybrid sessions, you can add live display(s) to show polls, Q&As, and the live stream on large screen(s) at the event venue or remote hub(s). More information in the How to use live displays article.

In the Captions tab, you can fully configure the captions/subtitles for your live streams, as explained in the How do closed captions work article.
