Typical Event Workflow

This guide is for event operators — A/V volunteers who run the streaming/clipping platform at and
after an event. If you’re looking for the OBS/hardware setup instead, see
FTC A/V Setup Guide or FRC A/V Home.

Typical Event Workflow

  1. Optional, the day before: stream a pre-event test to check your setup end to end (see
    Your First Event).
  2. Before the event: confirm the event is configured (see
    Managing Events).
  3. Pair OBS with the platform if you haven’t already (see
    OBS Plugin Guide), and select the
    event for today.
  4. Start streaming in OBS. If your event restreams, then once the stream is online click
    Start Push, wait for the YT Restream row to read Ready for Live, then click
    Go Live (with a manual restream key there’s no Go Live; the row reads Pushing). See
    Running a Live Event. If
    YouTube shows the stream as healthy but it won’t play, see
    Troubleshooting.
  5. During the event, watch the status panel for health warnings and let the pipeline cut and
    publish clips automatically.
  6. After the event, spot-check the Clips and Uploads pages (see
    Clips, Uploads and Signage).
