MSBroadcast
Layer it, brand it, go live.
MSBroadcast is a live production app. Stack cameras, images, text and tickers into scenes, start from ready-made news, starting soon and be right back designs, then record and stream to YouTube, Twitch and your own servers.
Layer anything
Drag, resize, crop and rotate every layer on the preview. Stack cameras, images, text, tickers and countdowns, and snap them into place.
Ready-made scenes
Ten scene designs in seven colour themes: news desk, breaking news, interview, starting soon, be right back and more. Edit every word.
Record and stream
One encode to MP4 and to YouTube, Twitch and any RTMP server at once, with hardware encoding when your graphics card has it.
Layers and properties
A news desk scene with the camera window selected: resize handles on the preview, the layer stack on the left and every setting on the right.
Recording in progress
The Record button turns to Stop, the timer and file size count up, and the encoder in use is shown next to the file being written.
