Thanks for watching! For a deeper dive into what streamyard can do check this video out here. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kdkFjM4FhCk.html
Just a heads up to anyone watching this video, you can schedule events and add thumbnails yo restream too. Michael made a point to say that streamyard is the only one that can do that so it has a advantage, but that's not accurate. Basically if your torn between the 2, try the free version for both and see which one feels smoother for you. Also, restream is better for budget streamers because you can stream to multiple platforms and unlimited time whereas streamyard charges for that.
I was having trouble deciding because they are very similar services, but this video was peeerfect for helping me decide and so well put together with actual demos, thank you!
Hello Michael, You're doing a great job by sharing such valuable information via your videos. Restream io does not come free though. I believe they changed it probably after watching your channel get popular!
Any difference between the two platforms when it comes to the video or audio quality of the transmission? You can seamlessly insert pre-recorded videos into a live StreamYard broadcast that have been uploaded to the studio. Not sure, but it seems you can only do something like that by using the screensharing function with Restream, which is more cumbersome. Thoughts?
Wow thank you so much for your AWESOME videos. Question, what will take you the furthest for free of the two? Also, when using OBS attached and a soundboard overlay, which is more easier to use? Thanks again.
Really good comparison tutorial. Have you looked into and compared them more recently? It seems the features that StreamYard had that got the win in this video (scheduling for example, or camera selection) no have been updated in Restream. Just a heads up on those. Both great products. I was just looking to see if there was reason to change (I use Restream). But it seems both are still very comparable. Thanks for a great video.
Super helpful! I am planning to do another live stream soon. I always had an audio echo with OBS and Skype using my Blue Snowball mic. Is this avoided with Streamyard or Restream?
Doesn't re stream have better audio like stereo or something I heard somewhere and I was hoping you would mention it. I'm curious because musicians want the best audio for their live streams
Great video thanks. Using my iphone 11, I livestream consistently on on Facebook live and want to expand my reach. I want to add other facebook pages and it looks like Streamyard might not do that?
HI! Great content! I'm trying restreaming just on RU-vid and even when I set the quality in 1080 when the streaming is live on RU-vid It Has max quality 720 and it looks terrible, I'm using ATEM Mini with 2 sony cameras; I tried directly on RU-vid Streaming and the quality is up to 1080 and it looks way better, any advice to improve the situation with restream?
The restream sends content out it will likely scale it all to match the connection with the lowest max. So if Facebook only allows 720 the entire broadcast over all platforms would be scaled to 720. That is my guess as to what’s happening.
Thanks for this. Is restream IO free? I recently have streamyard, and possibly i will create account with restream IO if it is free to use for my educational page in fb and youtube, i am looking for one that can broadcast simulatenously. And is there a time limit with restream IO? E.g. streamyard is 20 hrs/month for the free version. What abouy restream IO? Thank you so much!
Michael you are a lifesaver!! 😍i Great review and explanation about both platforms. I tried Restream last week. It wasn't bad, except at the beginning it hanged a lot :( and then my audio got all crazy on me. Tomorrow I'll give Streamyard a go. Hopefully the results will be better. Wish me luck! Have a nice day Michael :) Thank you for this video!
Another big difference is that Restream can accept RTMP inputs while StreamYard cannot. I prefer StreamYard because of the ability to schedule live streams but no RTMP input is a dealbreaker for me.
The limitations highlighted on Restream here have been adressed so far and it gives way more advance to restream over streamyard. Restream should make it possible to use video at 480p because for me here in Africa the bandwidth is not as good as on your side
@@MichaelFeyrerJr @Michael Feyrer Jr. Thanks a lot for what you do. Eagerly waiting for the update. By the way, I was about to go live and we had an issue on the computer, so we jumped into restream live studion from the mobile phone. I was sceptical but it went smoothly. Amazing !
If you don't want a quality live stream with infinite setup options then yes it does....If Quality and creativity in live streaming is what you are about, then is it the best option, hands down.
