Re-stream live to Facebook

How to Re-stream on Facebook Using the Livebox Client Portal?

The sub-user created by the Livebox admin can access the Client Portal and re-stream the live videos running on the Livebox server channel to their desired destinations. The destination could be anywhere, like Facebook, Periscope, YouTube, Twitch, RTMP servers, and other streaming platforms.

So, to start re-streaming the Livebox server channel content on Facebook, the sub-user have to log in to the Client Portal with the credentials provided by the admin.

Enter your username and password and then give Login.

You can click the ‘Add Destination’ button located on the right side or the thunder button on the left side to select your destination.

A dialog box ‘Share on’ with several destinations shows up. As you wanted to stream live on Facebook, select the Facebook option and then click Push live stream to Facebook to get connected to Facebook.

Note: If you select the option Automatically TURN ON when adding push value, the live stream will automatically begin to happen on your Facebook destination once the live streaming set-up is done. Otherwise, you have to manually turn on the push value followed by giving Go Live on the Facebook live streaming settings page.

Once you select Push live stream to Facebook, a pop-up notification on the top left of your browser appears, on which you can give ‘Always allow’ and click ‘Done’.

Client Portal is now connected to your Facebook and it opens your Facebook login page. So, log in to your Facebook.

Select where you want to post your live video and give ‘Next’.

Once you click the ‘Next’ button, a Connect your Live stream to the Live API Facebook page opens, and you can minimize the window to see your Facebook destination being added to the push destination.

Note: If you haven’t enabled the Automatically Turn On when adding push value option, then Turn on the button on your destination when you really wanted to re-stream to your Facebook destination.

Then go to Facebook, where it starts to fetch your Livebox content for streaming.

Your content is now fetched, so you can give a nice description and title to your stream and also decide the audience to share your live stream with.

Then click Go Live which is located in the bottom right corner. You have done your Facebook re-stream successfully.

Note: Unless you click on the Go Live button, the live streaming won’t happen on your Facebook timeline.

You can check your re-stream on your Facebook timeline.

You have successfully re-streamed on Facebook from the Livebox Client Portal.
