      How Do I Set Up My Output Settings?

      How Do I Send My Stream To My Striv Channel?

      Settings In Wirecast

      Navigate to Wirecast, ' Output' on the top menu bar, and select 'Output Settings.'

      For quicker access to your 'Output Settings' menu, use the keyboard shortcuts 'Command+Y' for Mac and 'Control+Y' for Windows.

      If setting up the output settings for the first time, your 'Output Settings' menu should look like the picture below.

      Select the 'More' button on the right side of the pop-up box, and scroll down the list to make sure 'Striv TV' has a blue checkbox next to it. If it does, go ahead and hit 'OK', and you'll return to the above pop-up. Next, select the box filled with 'RTMP Server' and select 'Striv TV' from the dropdown menu. Then select 'OK.'

      At this point in the process, you might get another pop-up asking you to 'Keep Canvas Size' or 'Match Preset Size.' Select 'Match Preset Size.'

      Now we should be in a menu that looks like the image below. Screen Shot 2022-07-12 at 9.29.10 AM

      If you already have had Wirecast setup, this will be the first thing you see.

      In the 'Username' space, you will type the email you use to access your Striv Dashboard. Then hit 'Authenticate' and type the password you created for your Dashboard. Once typed in, hit 'OK', and the 'Channel' space should automatically display your school's main channel. 

      The 'Channel' space will look like '(Your School Name) 1'

      You can switch between streams if you have two streams on your channel. The number behind the name of your school corresponds to the order your channels are in from top to bottom.

      Next, select your 'Encoding' settings. If you are a Bronze or Silver School, you want your setting to be 'Striv TV: Striv 720p'. If you are a Gold School and want to stream at 1080p, don't hesitate to contact us at support1@striv.tv.

      Once that is done, click 'OK' in the bottom right corner and begin your stream whenever you are ready! And if you have any additional questions, feel free to fill out the helpdesk ticket on your school's Dashboard.
