Stream on YouTube Live

Follow this guide to seamlessly stream face-swapped videos on YouTube Live, from setup to optimizing broadcast settings.

Requirements

  • Starter plan or above
  • YouTube channel with live streaming enabled
1

Enable YouTube Live on your channel

Go to YouTube Studio → Go Live. If this is your first time, verification may take up to 24 hours. Once enabled, click Create → Go Live.

2

Copy your Stream Key

In YouTube Studio, go to Settings → Stream and copy your Stream URL and Stream Key. Keep this private.

Tip: Use a persistent stream key so you don't need to update Onlyface settings each session.
3

Add YouTube as a Destination in Onlyface

In Onlyface Backstage, click the Settings icon beside Go Live → Destination tab → Add Destination. Paste your YouTube Stream URL and Key, then click Save.

4

Configure stream settings

Set your stream title, description, and visibility (Public/Unlisted/Private) in YouTube Studio before going live. Set latency to Normal for most streams.

5

Go Live

Click Go Live in Onlyface. Head back to YouTube Studio to confirm your stream is active. Your face-swapped video will appear to viewers on your channel.
