Monitoring your Broadcast on vCloud

FAQs
How can I check my livestream?
You can check on your livestream through the process outlined above. This administrative video player lets you see what your fans are seeing.
What is the delay on the livestream feed from real-time?
Depending on the network, the delay will usually be between 20-40 seconds. If there are network issues at the event's location or on the device being used to view, it can be longer.
The broadcast says it is delayed, is there something wrong?
If the broadcast says delayed, this means it is past the livestream's scheduled time and we have not begun to receive a video feed. Please check on the software or hardware you are using to stream to ensure you are live!
