LATEST UPDATES

FUN FACT : Favourite 4th July / Canada Day as a kid? 

  • Geige : 4th July ver at my friends house 
  • Dan : Joined a long distance race & won! Mum also sells hand made crafts, and we setup to sell drinks. My first entrepreneurial venture! 

Infinite scrolling comments in beta

  • Currently studio only saves around 120-150 comments 
  • Adding infinite scrolling comments, so you can see all comments in studio
  • Email us to test this feature contact@streamyard.com – With subject line ‘scrolling comments’

LinkedIn Live connections only going away

  • Relatively small change
  • Connections only streams have now gone away 
  • On profiles, it’s not public only!

Set amount of storage?

  • Would you prefer this rather than set time limit? 
  • Love your feedback on this 
  • We are working on options for more storage / deleting older recordings

YouTube Polls

  • Have you got or seen this feature yes? 
  • What do you think of it? 

Getting started webinar

YouTube Premieres 

  • Curious how many are using this feature? 
  • Do you use in any clever ways alongside your livestreams? 

Write for Streamyard

Do you use notes or teleprompters?

  • Curious how many of you use notes or teleprompters while doing your shows
  • I know I use the banners as my main talking points, want to hear more on how you do your shows 

Process of inviting guests

  • Curious to hear your process of inviting guests onto your streams
  • How many of you are using calendar scheduling tools as opposed to emailing back and forward ad-hoc
  • What steps do you go through to get people on the streams, and can we add anything to ease some of those pain points

LIVE QUESTION & ANSWER

When will we be able to control video share? To start automatically rather than being selected by host? 

  • There is a setting to automatically add screens / videos to the broadcast. If off won’t add automatically, 

Can we add an audio file as opposed to just video file?

  • Not as yet

Any plans yet for templates or ability to duplicate previous show settings? 

  • We do have plans to make easier to use everything from previous shows 
  • Just working out what that looks like 

Will you work with “new” social media platforms?

  • Yes, we are always open to working with new platforms, as long as they have APIs to allow us to

Will infinite comments ease the comment dump where you get 20-30 comments all at once? 

  • We can look into this
  • No would not affect that 

Feature request : Animated background (Not GIFs) to get rid of boring static backgrounds

  • Hesitant as harder to make perfectly looping backgrounds
  • Could be jarring if not implemented properly

Can we detach comments to share them on screen? 

  • Can share one at a time at the moment 
  • No way to show all on screen right now

Will there ever be a time where we can play videos while staying on screen and not muting mics? (So we can play & pause video)

  • You can do this now under – Share  > Video Share 

Has the streamyard link formula changed? When I shared yesterday, it looked longer than normal

  • This was a mistake on our part, that contained extra parameters 
  • It’s back to normal again now 

Dow e always have 24/7 support on standby? 

Can you schedule a show in advance and have it play video?

  • You can schedule shows but not have a video play when it starts at the moment 
  • We are looking to add this though

Will it ever be possible to download past livestreams direct to Google Drive?

  • Curious if you would like online in StreamYard or would prefer just direct to Drive & why
  • Do you have a flow where it goes to Drive and others work with the files etc? 
  • Interested to know how people are using these features, so we can build to better support you all

Is the keyword for the giveaway tool case sensitive?

  • Not at all 
  • You can even make it a longer keyword term 

Can you consider HOT KEY for when we need to switch between cameras?

  • We are working on this and shared initial  screenshot a few weeks ago
  •  

Would be great to have reminder system / registration system to remind viewers to tune in for specific streams with link to social platforms we are broadcasting to

  • Would you prefer this integrated directly into Streamyard, or connected to your existing tools like Mailchimp, Drip, Aweber etc? 

Can you share more on upcoming Hopin event this week? 

  • You can register here :  Hopin.com/events/illuminate
  • Some great speakers & always good networking 
  • Discussion around the future of Hybrid Events
