      Facebook Live

      Here's how to live stream from Digital Samba to Facebook Live:

      1. Click the Livestream icon in Digital Samba and select Facebook from the drop-down menu.

      Open Live-streaming pane

      2. Go to the Facebook page you intend to stream to and click the Live option in the post-box. This will open your streaming options where you can copy your Live Stream Key.

      Note: Facebook requires you to leave this window open while you stream. Remember not to close this window while your session is active.

      3. Paste your copied Live Stream Key into the field in your Digital Samba session and click Start Stream.

      Quick tip: in the bottom left-hand corner of your meeting, you’ll see notifications indicating that you’ve started to stream.

      Starting live stream

      Please note: it may take up to 100 seconds for the Facebook interface to receive your stream. This is perfectly normal. 

      4. Returning to your Facebook page, you’ll see your stream is connected and ready to go. Click the blue "Go Live" button in the bottom right of this screen to start live-streaming on your Facebook page. When you’re done, simply click on the red "End Live Video" button.

      Note: remember to end your sessions in this order:
      1. Facebook
