Wirecast is one of the most commonly used broadcasting software. By following the steps below, you can easily connect Wirecast to Castr.io.

Connecting Wirecast with Castr

  1. Get your RTMP Stream server URL and Stream key from Castr

  2. Open Wirecast

  3. Go to the Output settings page in Wirecast

  4. Choose Destination as RTMP Server

  5. In the Address field, paste Castr's ingest URL

  6. In the Stream field, paste the stream key, and press OK

  7. Make sure the location field in Wirecast shows the full URL path

  8. You are all set to go live from Wirecast.

Troubleshoot:

  1. If you experience an issue with the stream quality, you may set your encoder preset to this

2. Sometimes, Wirecast used to add a space at the end of the stream when you paste the stream key from Castr; if Wirecast cannot connect to Castr, please check for empty spaces at the end of the Address and the stream key.
