JAKARTA - Instagram is testing the Live Producer tool, which allows users to live Instagram on desktop via streaming software such as OBS, Streamyard, and Streamlabs.
“We're always working to make Instagram Live a meaningful place to share experiences,” a Meta spokesperson said via email to TechCrunch.
This Live Producer feature is still relatively new and in the testing phase, so it is not yet ready to be fully rolled out to users.
Instagram says that the new integration will allow the use of external devices in addition to the traditional phone camera, such as an additional camera, and an external microphone.
From existing reports, if you want this feature when it launches later, you must first select the software to do Live. Then, you can get started by opening the streaming software interface and finding a place to enter your URL and Stream Key.
Instagram continues, the URL and Stream Key will allow you to stream the software settings live to live on your Instagram.
For that, you need to open the desktop version of Instagram and click the "Add post" button and select "Live" from the drop-down menu. Next, you can enter the title of your live broadcast on the "Go Live" screen and select your audience.
If you select "Practice" your live video will not be broadcast to anyone. If you select "Public", you will broadcast to your followers like a regular live video.
In briefing TechCrunch, the company didn't say exactly when the tool would roll out to Instagram users.
