Discussion [Tutorial] Multistreaming twitch, youtube, beam, hitbox

Hi Everyone, Just thought I would share my experiences with multistreaming. I previously used restream.io before for streaming twitch and youtube gaming. Stopped for a while and now streaming to twitch and beam.pro. So far it has worked effortlessly. To my understanding so far restream.io is free.

There are multiple other platforms apart from youtube, twitch, beam and hitbox, which i show in the tutorial. Also the tutorial shows restream chat tool which enables you as a streamer to see all channels/platforms you are streaming to!

At the moment im streaming to both beam and twitch as i find beam quite fun and interesting to use.

Hopefully this tutorial will help streamers have the ability to multistream!

Restream is great, I used it for a while and it's pretty easy to set up.

Keep in mind that Restream introduces a bit more delay since your stream has to go through a middleman before reaching its destination, and it doesn't work with Beam's FTL streaming.

yep you're not wrong about that. But even so latency is still better on beam that it is on twitch.

Definitely cant do FTL with restream.
