StreamHouse

Choose StreamHouse if…

  • You want a channel that keeps playing pre-recorded video around the clock
  • Nobody needs to be at the controls
  • You want no watermark on any plan
Restream

  • You host live shows with guests
  • You want to reach 30+ platforms

Switching from Restream

Moving over, step by step.

Keep Restream for your live shows and move the always-on part. It takes three steps.

  1. Keep your live workflow

    Separate live shows with guests from the content you want to loop all day; keep your studio for the shows.

  2. Check pre-recorded limits

    Confirm duration and scheduling limits on your current plan; a recording feature isn’t a continuous loop.

  3. Rebuild, then test

    Upload your finished recordings, build the always-on playlist and test it before you reroute production destinations.
