he RTMP Overlay feature allows receiving video from devices capable of RTMP streaming and integrating it as a single source for live streaming in the PRISM app.
You can use the RTMP Overlay function in the Widget menu of My Studio that appears when you swipe left on the Live Ready screen. Select ‘RTMP Video Source’ from the function list of the Widget menu, it will be added to the My Studio source list. And when you click on the RTMP Overlay source in the source list, it will be placed on the live streaming screen.
Once it is placed, it can be resized, repositioned and rotated just like an image overlay. And as soon as that source is placed, the RTMP information that can be streamed to the RTMP Overlay is displayed.
The RTMP information is generated by the combination of the RTMP Stream URL and RTMP Stream Key. Please note that excessively minimizing the RTMP Overlay area may hide the RTMP information.
Clicking the Edit button at the bottom of the RTMP Overlay or the More button on the source item in My Studio, takes you to the detailed screen for the RTMP video source.
The displayed RTMP information can be shared externally through the [Share] button, allowing you to configure external RTMP streaming devices with the shared information and utilize the RTMP Overlay feature.
The RTMP video source details screen provides the following usage guide, so please refer to it.
Connect to the same WiFi network > Enter the RTMP URL from an external camera > Stream the video > Display the recived video on the overlay (excluding audio)
In addition, if the video being streamed exceeds 1080p / 60fps, reception of it may be unstable or the device may lose its RTMP connection in rare cases.
When the video starts streaming from the external device, the ‘Receiving RTMP video...’ comment will be displayed in the widget for a while as shown below. ​And then, when the RTMP video starts to be processed normally, it is displayed on the live streaming screen and is shown to viewers at the same time.
If the reception of RTMP video is not normal, the app exposes the progress UI or displays the status of disconnected network. In this situation, please use the function again after checking the network environment and device status.
