◆ 2: Procedure for live distribution on YouTube using LiveShell W
'LiveShell W' has been

confirmed to work with live distribution services such as YouTube, Niconico Live, TwitCasting, Facebook Live, Twitch, and vimeo. This time, I will check the live distribution procedure on YouTube.



First, tap 'Settings' located at the top right of the LiveShell Studio screen.



When you open the settings, the setting screen for distribution will be displayed. On this screen, it is possible to allocate distribution settings to channels 1 to 3. By default, channel 1 is empty, so tap 'Change' next to channel 1.



Next, tap 'Add new delivery destination'.



Then, the following setting screen is displayed. The information you need to enter on this screen is listed on the YouTube distribution screen.



In order to check the necessary information, open YouTube, click the post button at the top right of the screen and select 'Start live distribution'.



If you select 'Encoder distribution' from the live distribution method list on the left side of the screen, the 'Stream key' and 'Stream URL' will be displayed.



After checking the information on YouTube, return to the setting screen, enter your favorite name in 'Display name' and select 'RTMP client' from 'Destination type'. Furthermore, enter the stream URL in the 'RTMP URL' field, enter the key in the 'Stream key' field, and tap 'Save'. In addition, since only alphabets and symbols can be displayed on the display of 'LiveShell W', it is better not to use Japanese for 'display name'.



Then, YouTube distribution settings will be added to the distribution destination list, so click 'Select'.



If YouTube distribution settings are registered on channel 1, the setting is completed. No PC or tablet is required for subsequent operations, and you can start broadcasting on YouTube with 'LiveShell W' alone.



The three buttons placed at the top of the 'LiveShell W' display correspond to channels 1 to 3 in order from the left. By pressing the leftmost button, you can call up the YouTube distribution settings registered to channel 1.
