Social Media Sharing Login
There are two different types of content to share from Production Truck via social media. The first one is a screenshot of the current content of the broadcast. The second is the sharing of video clips, including clips captured from the instant replay feature. The setup and configuration are the same for both of these features.
Due to the public changing infrastructure at Twitter, our integration with the platform may experience issues.
This feature is currently only available for Production Truck on Mac.
