Using YouTube RTMP on your Mevo Camera

● I record my daughter’s softball games/tournament

● Typical tournament:
○ 2 days, Friday/Saturday
○ Multiple games per day
○ The first 2-3 games may be scheduled
○ Subsequent games are based off of seeding and I may not know
when those games are scheduled until right before they start
● There are multiple options for RTMP configurations
○ Default Stream Key
○ New Stream Key
○ Scheduling a Stream
● This document will only look at the Default Stream Key option
● This option works for me and will likely work for others who need to
stream multiple games, sessions, church services, etc.
