Live Sports Streaming
Broadcast an entitled public competition from OBS or PRISM Live and give viewers a stable pitch link with the current score and next fixture beside the video.
Pitch 1
Manningham FC 2 – 1 Queensbury52 viewers · 36:14Encoder Workflow
Copy the server and one-time stream key into OBS Studio or PRISM Live. uContend recommends a practical 720p30 profile for mobile viewing. Keys can be rotated and are never stored in recoverable plaintext.
Use a custom streaming service with the provided RTMPS server and key.
Broadcast from a compatible mobile device using the same private credentials.
The current website does not request or expose recordings.
Only authorised competition admins can create, rotate or end a stream.
Viewer Experience
The browser uses HLS playback. Each playing area has a stable share URL, while match score and next-fixture information come directly from the uContend schedule rather than a separate overlay.
Resilience
An interrupted encoder receives a short reconnect window and viewers see the reconnecting state. Unused prepared streams expire, active streams close at the end of the event day, and manually ending a stream revokes publishing access.
Availability
Streaming is included on eligible competition and organisation plans and requires healthy streaming infrastructure. Capacity and same-pitch locks are checked before credentials are created, so an organiser sees a clear limit instead of a failing broadcast.
Check plan availability, configure the playing area and start the encoder when the event is ready.
