Stream status and Go Live The Stream status / Go Live tab is the first stop before a show. It checks the path from camera to viewers, tells you what needs attention, and gives you the next useful button. Open the play icon tab. The card is labelled

Failover server (advanced) This is an advanced, optional extra. Most streamers never need it. It is for people whose stream cannot afford to stay down while they fix a broken server: a second, cheap receiver that sits idle and can take over if your main one stops answering.

Renting a server for the receiver The receiver needs a machine with a fixed public address that is on when you are streaming. Renting one costs somewhere between $5 and $12 a month. Set a budget before you rent. Whichever provider you pick, add a budget or spending alert in its billing settings a little above the plan's monthly price, and use a hard spending cap or prepaid credit where it is offered. A budget is an alarm, not a fuse, but it stops a forgotten server, a bigger plan picked by mis…

Your own streaming server Four steps. One command does the install, and it asks you nothing. About ten minutes, and most of that is waiting. This builds the machine that catches your bonded phone connection and passes it on to YouTube, Twitch, Kick or anywhere else. You do not need to understand servers to do it. The receiver arrives as

The IRL Dashboard A single-screen control panel for IRL streaming that runs on the router in your backpack. It handles SRTLA modem bonding, cameras, the Director Mini, publishing, GPS, weather, chat and a live-overlay designer, all from one page you can pull up on your phone mid-stream. It works without a laptop and keeps working on cellular.

The receiver Bonding sends your stream over every connection at once. Something with a fixed public address has to put it back together and pass it on to Twitch, YouTube, Kick or anywhere else. That's the receiver: one ready-built Docker container,

Publishing Restreamer and Restream.io are different products. Not sure whether you need one or both? Read Restreamer vs Restream.io: do I need both? for the comparison and example stream paths. The dashboard has three publishing tabs that sound similar but do different jobs: * Restreamer

Restreamer vs Restream.io: do I need both? They are different products, not two names for the same service. You can use either on its own, or use both together. Both can send video to several platforms, which is why the names and features are easy to mix up.
