Setup Type
On the computer that you are streaming from, we recommend you have, at minimum, a 4-core i7 CPU or 8th generation 4-core i5.
On the computer that you are streaming from, we recommend you have, at minimum, 16GB of RAM.
We highly recommend a hard-wired internet connection with at least 10Mbps up/down for streaming. You can stream on slower internet connections by changing a few settings in our stream software. However, this will reduce the picture quality.
We recommend streaming from a computer with Mac OS Sierra or newer.
