Set up a stream using RTMP or RTMPS push
Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) is this the most common way to stream to a CDN, including both
Facebook Live and YouTube.
Use Real Time Messaging Protocol Secure (RTMPS) to encrypt content before it's streamed over a TLS/SSL
connection for secure live streaming. When enabled, Pearl Mini will always attempt to validate the digital
certificate it receives from the CDN to establish a secure RTMPS connection. The connection will fail if Pearl
Mini can't find the CA certificate of your CDN in it's list of certificates.
Pearl Mini has the CA certificates for many of the major CDNs already installed. For RTMPS streaming to work
for your particular CDN, or if you're using a proprietary RTMPS server, ensure that your streaming server's CA
certificate is uploaded to Pearl Mini, see
Manage CA and self-signed certificates .
To stream using RTMP or RTMPS:
1. Login to the Admin panel as admin , see Connect to the Admin panel .
2. From the Channels menu, select a channel and click Streaming . The Streaming configuration page
opens.
3. Click New stream and choose RTMP push . The new stream is created using the default name Stream
1 .
4. Click the stream name to see the stream settings.
5. (Optional) Uncheck Single touch control if you don't want this stream to be started and stopped
using One Touch streaming and recording control . This is enabled by default.
