Connect an RTMP encoder such as OBS Studio, manage the channel through VDO Panel and deliver browser-friendly HLS playback with optional VOD libraries and recording workflows.
VDO Panel provides stream credentials, channel management, VOD tools and viewer information for broadcasters who need a dedicated video workflow rather than ordinary website hosting.

Live video streaming hosting provides the infrastructure between your encoder and the viewer. Instead of uploading a completed video file, an encoder such as OBS sends a continuous RTMP feed to the server. The platform then prepares that content for viewer delivery, commonly through HLS, while the control panel manages channel details, stream keys, recordings and VOD assets.
OBS Studio is a popular choice for visual radio, live events, creator channels and studio broadcasts. In a typical setup you choose a custom streaming service in OBS, paste the RTMP server address and stream key from VDO Panel, select an appropriate bitrate and start streaming. The hosting platform handles the onward delivery rather than relying on the broadcaster's home connection to serve every viewer.
HLS splits a video stream into short segments that can be delivered over standard web infrastructure and played by modern browsers and devices. It is widely used because it works well for internet delivery and can support adaptive workflows depending on the platform configuration.
Not every programme needs to disappear when the live stream ends. VOD storage can hold recorded shows, interviews, event replays and scheduled visual-radio content. This gives a broadcaster more value from each production and can support a 24/7 channel that combines live and prerecorded programming.
Radio stations increasingly add studio cameras, song graphics, presenter video and simulcast feeds. A dedicated video streaming server gives visual radio a controlled RTMP-to-HLS path while the audio station can continue running separately through AzuraCast, SonicPanel, Icecast or SHOUTcast.
Yes. OBS can connect to a custom RTMP server using the URL and stream key supplied in VDO Panel.
RTMP is commonly used to send the live feed from your encoder to the server, while HLS is commonly used to deliver the processed stream to web and mobile viewers.
Compatible plans include VOD storage so prerecorded content can be uploaded and managed alongside live channels.
Yes, provided the selected plan, source workflow and media library are sized for continuous operation.
Your encoder upload connection should comfortably exceed the configured video bitrate and remain stable. Leave headroom rather than running the connection at its maximum capacity.
We will help match the expected audience, VOD storage and OBS or encoder workflow to an appropriate video package.
