How to Stream With Discord’s ‘Go Live’ Option
Discord’s ‘Go Live’ option is a great way to stream your gameplay or other activities to your friends or community. It’s easy to set up and use, and you can even invite others to join you in the stream. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to stream with Discord’s ‘Go Live’ option.
Step 1: Check your Discord settings
Before you start streaming, make sure your Discord settings are set up correctly. Go to your Discord user settings (the gear icon next to your username), and click on ‘Voice & Video’. Make sure your input and output devices are set up correctly, and that your mic is working properly.
Step 2: Start a voice channel
To start a stream, you’ll need to be in a voice channel. If you’re not already in one, create a new voice channel or join an existing one.
Step 3: Click on ‘Go Live’
Once you’re in a voice channel, click on the ‘Go Live’ button at the bottom of the screen. Discord will ask you to choose an application to stream. Select the application you want to stream, such as a game or a browser window.
Step 4: Choose your settings
After you’ve selected the application to stream, you can choose your stream settings. You can choose whether to include your voice and video in the stream, and whether to invite others to join you in the stream.
Step 5: Start streaming
Once you’ve chosen your settings, click on ‘Go Live’ to start streaming. Your friends or community members will receive a notification that you’re streaming, and they can join the stream by clicking on the ‘Watch Stream’ button.
Step 6: End the stream
When you’re done streaming, click on the ‘Stop Streaming’ button to end the stream. You can also end the stream by leaving the voice channel.
That’s it! Streaming with Discord’s ‘Go Live’ option is simple and easy. With just a few clicks, you can share your gameplay or other activities with your friends or community.
