Streaming Vimeo To Restream Scheduler

You will need to ensure that you have the correct Restream account and that it accounts for the number of pre-recorded videos that you will need to upload. There is a limit of 10 pre-recorded slots per account and for each scheduled video, you will require a separate custom RTMP. For example – 10 scheduled videos occurring in one day would need 10 custom RTMP’s. Some videos may experience a delay. Please test your video prior to the event.

• Create a Live Event
  Head onto Vimeo and click on the Live Events tab. Click Create a Live Event on Vimeo. Choosing Recurring will allow you to reuse the URL embed into Glisser (recommended). Do not choose a start time or date. We recommend selecting the privacy hide from Vimeo.

• Customize Video
  Press Next. Here you can edit and customize your video (most customization options are on the Embed tab).

• Event Embed Code
  Head to the embed tab at the top and choose Event embed code. You’ll need to copy just a portion of the code – it should look something like https://vimeo.com/event/1329230/embed. This is the code you’ll need to paste into Glisser.

• Add to Glisser
  Head to Glisser and paste the copied code into your session (Edit session, Live streaming tab, choose Vimeo as the stream source provider, paste into box). You’re now linked to Glisser.

• Connect RTMP
  Head back to Vimeo and select the Next button at the top right. You’ll have a preview of your webcam, you’ll need to select the Connect (RTMP) and you’ll see the heading Connect to your encoding software. Below are the keys that you’ll need to embed into Restream.

• Add Channel
  Login to your Restream account and select add channel. Now choose Custom RTMP.

• Copy RTMP Codes
  Paste the RTMP codes from the Vimeo tab into their respective boxes on Restream when prompted. Press Add Channel.

• Upload Video
  Upload your videos onto Restream but heading into the scheduler tab button from the options on the left of the screen. Select Videos from the two options at the top and upload your video.

• Schedule
  Once your video has finished uploading you can schedule the start time but clicking onto the three vertical dots to the right of the video thumbnail and hitting Schedule….

• Set Title and Start Date
  Choose your title and start date. Press the advance drop down option and ensure that the channel has been set to the custom RTMP that you set up a few steps back. You can also choose to repeat if you wish. When you’re finished press Schedule Live Event.

• Present from Start
  Your video will now begin once the countdown has ended. You can now head back to Glisser and press Live Control followed by Go Live on your session – this will allow your audience members to enter the session through the code. The video will begin at your scheduled time.
