How to Add Live Streaming Content – Content Partner

Introduction

As a Content Partner, you can add Video Live Streaming content in the Content Partner Portal (if the admin has enabled this content option in the Muvi One CMS). First, you have to select the “Video Live Streaming” form from the content form's drop-down. Then, you need to create the content by adding the content metadata (e.g., content title, description, category, cast, crew, etc.) and after adding the metadata you need to add the HLS URL of live streaming.
