You can set the desired quality of a live video according to the network and device performance. Select the button that indicates resolution on the broadcast preparation screen, and the encoding setting layer will be visible. Please note that you cannot change the settings once the broadcast starts.

In the encoding settings layer, you can change option values as follows.

• 1) Adaptive Bitrate
  : This is a feature that analyzes the network in real-time during a broadcast to automatically find and adjust to the optimal Bitrate and FPS. If you set it to 'On', the image quality may be reduced although it enables a stable live broadcast. Thus, you can set it to 'Off' if you would like to keep the image quality although buffering may occur during the broadcast.
• 2) Resolution
  : Resolution refers to clarity (or image quality) of an image. If you broadcast for a long time with high resolution, heating may occur. So, consider the broadcast content before setting. In order to maintain a stable broadcast quality, the use of some effects may be limited when the resolution is set at 1080p. Please note that some platforms may not support 1080p (e.g. Facebook).
• 3) Bitrate
  : Bitrate refers to the amount of data sent per second. The higher the Bitrate is, the higher the broadcast image quality becomes; however, as it makes the image size larger, the broadcast may not be smooth if the network is not good.
  : We recommend using Bitrate by resolution as follows.
  360p (1~2Mbps), 720p (2~4Mbps), 1080p(4~6Mbps)
• 4) Frame Rate
  : Frame rate refers to the number of frames (images) composing a video in one second. The higher the number of frames you set, the smoother the motion and more natural the broadcast becomes.
  : In normal live broadcasting, we recommend using 30fps
• 5) Keyframe Interval
  : Keyframe Interval refers to the cycle (seconds) when I-Frame (mainframe that composes a video) is inserted, among the frames that compose an image.
  : In normal live broadcasting, we recommend using 1-2 seconds.

Press the [See more] button at the top left of the filming screen, and a menu will be shown that allows you to turn on/off the option to flip camera image horizontally.
It can only be applied when using the front-facing camera, and the camera image cannot be flipped when using the rear camera.

When a live broadcast you ran with PRISM Live Studio ends, AI analyzes the broadcast video and viewer reactions for you.

• - AI Live Insights: analyzes the key moments, viewer reactions, revenue performance, and more, and shows them at a glance. You can also check the broadcast script.
• - AI Clip generation: AI automatically finds the moments that drew the best reactions and turns them into short clips.

You can start from either of the following:

• • 1. Broadcast End screen — When you end a live broadcast, the [AI Live Insights] and [Create AI Clip] buttons appear on the screen.

  • 2. MY > Broadcast History — Even after leaving the Broadcast End screen, the [Create AI Live Insights] and [Create AI Clip] buttons are available under Broadcast History in the MY menu.

• • ※ For broadcasts that have already been processed, a [View] button appears instead of [Create]. Tap it to go to the results screen.
  • ※ If you don’t see the [Create] button
    AI features use the broadcast video saved on your device. If you broadcast with video saving turned off, or if the video was not saved or has been deleted, the [Create] button will not appear. AI Live Insights and AI Clips can only be created for broadcasts with a saved video.

You can use them with broadcasts that meet all of the conditions below.

• 1. Monthly subscription — a set number of credits is added automatically each month (cheaper per credit than one-time top-ups).
  2. One-time top-up — you can purchase as many credits as you want, whenever you need them.
  Credit purchases are currently available only in the mobile app.

Currently you can use them for AI Live Insights (analysis of stream performance, viewer reactions, and more) and AI Clip generation (automatic highlight creation), and the range of available AI features will continue to expand.

Subscription credits are valid for 1 month, and top-up credits are valid for 5 years.
Subscription credits expire sooner, so they’re used first. Top-up credits are used after that.

No. PRISM Credits are a separate product from PRISM Plus.
Even without a Plus subscription, you can purchase credits on their own to use AI features.
PRISM Plus provide premium broadcasting features, while PRISM Credits provides AI features.

If audio delay occurs or audio is not synchronized, use the Sync Offset feature in Advanced Audio Settings. For reference, the sync offset unit is in 'ms'. (1000ms=1s)

You can configure audio-related settings via [Settings] > [Audio].

• 1. Sample Rate : Sample rate determines the quality of sound transmitted from your stream. In general, 44.1 kHz (sound quality for CDs) is recommended. 48 kHz is for professional streams that require enriched sound.
• • 2. Channel :
  • - Mono : This is a method of sound reproduction using one channel.
  • - Stereo : This is a method of sound reproduction using two or more independent audio channels through symmetrical speaker composition.
  • - Surround Sound : To apply surround sound, check if the input and playback features for this effect are supported in the corresponding service. PRISM Live Studio audio filters support surround sound. However, VST plug-in support is not guaranteed.

Before starting a stream, you'll need to decide which channel you'll stream on.
You can select a channel by switching the toggle button of the channel icon at the top of the main screen to On.

For a channel that has been added via an account link, you can set the title, category and range of opening of your stream in the 'Live Info' pop-up.

Click the 'Live Info' button of the channel icon at the top of the main screen to edit the live stream information. You can edit the information not only before, but also during a stream.

For service-linked channels, place the mouse cursor over the channel at the top of the main screen and click the third button to share via Facebook or X.

Once you start live streaming, the [Finish] button will be exposed on the bottom right side of the screen on your application. Clicking the [Finish] button will end your live stream.

Even if the live stream appears to have ended on the content viewing platform during live streaming, the PRISM Live Studio may continue the transmission according to the RTMP policy of individual platforms. Therefore, in order to safely end the live stream, make sure you click the [Finish] button.

PRISM integrated chat feature is provided if two or more of the simultaneous transmission channels are account-linked channels. You can write a comment and send it directly to the chat window.

Chroma key is a technique to separate an image from its background by using color differences and synthesizing it in another screen. For an Internet stream, this technique is mainly used to remove the background for a camera so as to help viewers focus on the streamer’s expression and the stream screen.

To apply the chroma key technique, you'll need a monochromatic screen for the background. A green or blue screen is mainly used for the chroma key technique. This is because an image can be clearly separated from its background when the colors are distinctly different.

More detailed directions will be updated in the official PRISM blog.

Click the [Rec] button at the bottom of the main screen to start recording.

You can start recording a stream regardless of the state of the stream being started or ended. Therefore, this feature can be used for rehearsal before a live stream or producing a video for recorded streams.

The main causes for automatic stream ending are as follows.

• 1. Unstable network

  A stream is automatically ended if the network is unstable, resulting in delay or suspension of the stream transmission.

• 2. Deleted channel or invalid streaming permission

  A stream is automatically ended if the streaming channel is deleted or streaming permission becomes invalid during the stream.

The 'Invalid live stream' message is displayed when a scheduled stream has been canceled or a stream is transmitted through the channel from another device.

If a scheduled stream has been canceled, select another scheduled stream. If the channel is already streaming, end the stream and try again or select another channel.

There can be time difference between chatting and live stream depending on the situation of the network or platform.

The main causes of this problem are as follows.

• 1. If streaming via BAND and Custom RTMP channels

  A chat room cannot be displayed for BAND and Custom RTMP channels. Look for messages in the chat room of each platform page.

• 2. No chat messages

  If there are no chat messages, it can appear as though the chats are not displayed. Please wait for a moment until messages are entered.

If the platform has been linked but the channel is not displayed, it could be either of the two cases below.

• 1. Channel creation and authentication were not completed
  To stream via YouTube, you'll need to complete the channel creation and authentication process once on the YouTube page. After linking your YouTube account, click the [Create a channel] button in the channel list. You will then be redirected to the Create Channel page. When the channel creation and authentication process is completed, it will appear in the channel list.
  
• 2. Channel information search failed
  Channel information search can fail due to a temporary error. Refresh the channel list and try searching channel information again.

If the storage period of login information in each platform expires, the 'Channel authentication info expiration' message is displayed.

If the notice is displayed prior to a stream, link the platform again according to the instructions provided by the program.

If the notice is displayed during a stream, you can link the platform again after the stream is ended because it does not affect the stream.
