Streaming protocols define how video and audio are delivered over the internet. In OneStream Live, selecting the right protocol ensures a secure and compatible broadcast.
OneStream Live supports RTMP and RTMPS—both work similarly, but the choice depends on your security needs and encoder support. It also supports WHIP for ultra-low latency streaming and SRT for reliable streaming over unstable networks.
To access the livestreaming protocols, follow these steps:
Steps:
-
From your dashboard, click Encoder Streaming.
-
Select a stream key to begin.
-
Select Stream Keys from the right-hand sidebar.
-
Click Advanced Settings.
-
Click the Protocol dropdown to choose:
-
RTMP: Standard, fast, and widely supported (OBS, vMix, Zoom).
-
RTMPS: Secure version of RTMP with encryption, required by platforms like Facebook.
-
WHIP: Ultra-low latency protocol for real-time streaming.
-
SRT: Reliable, secure streaming over unstable networks.
-
-
Click Update & Continue to save changes.
-
The Server URL will update automatically.

Copy and paste the new URL and Key into your encoder, and you are all set.
