How to Use Preview in Stream Studio?

Stream Studio includes a Preview feature that allows you to monitor the live stream while managing the auction. You can open the preview as a picture-in-picture (PIP) view and move it to another screen, allowing the Scriber to monitor the same feed that online viewers are seeing.

Use Preview

Step 1: Locate the Preview controls in Stream Studio.

Step 2: Select Preview to open a picture-in-picture view of the live stream.

Step 3: Use the available pin controls to display the required preview.

Step 4: Move the preview to another screen if required so you can monitor the live stream while continuing to manage the auction.

Step 5: Use the preview to monitor what online viewers are seeing while managing your camera, audio and layouts.


Helpful Tip

A second screen is recommended when using Stream Studio. This allows the Preview to remain visible while you manage the auction presentation and Stream Studio controls.
