Live event streaming is available in:

BMC 1.202 Flemming Lecture Hall

BMC 2.106 Auditorium

BMC 5.208 Briefing Room

CMB 4.130 Production Control Room

CMA 5.136 Lady Bird Johnson Room

All of the streaming (as of 2019) uses Black Magic Web Presenter.   

The Web Presenter can be seen as a webcam and you can log in to any platform (YouTube, FaceBook, Twitch, Skype, etc) and begin streaming immediately.  

If you need to stream to an event you will need to use OBS (Open Broadcast Software),  copy the Stream Key from the platform you are using and paste it into the OBS interface.  



Create the Event


First log in to the Moody College YouTube account

Stache entry: Moody College YouTube Channel


Once you are logged into the Moody College YouTube Channel,


Click on the Camera Icon → and go to Go Live


Click on STREAM from the top menu

then click on NEW STREAM


The COPY AND CREATE button can be used for reoccurring events that would use the same settings. However, most of our events are one time events and would require a new event to be created prior to the event.

NOTE:

I usually go to moody.utexas.edu and scroll down to the events
