Streaming to Facebook

One of the BIGGEST issues we have faced over the years is the constant changes in Facebook streaming. As with many churches, the desire to "reach the masses" via Facebook is at the top of the list. Although we are able to simulcast via your control panel, there is MUCH to be done to accomplish the task. This is NOT a one-time setup. These steps MUST be taken every week to assure your stream's success on the Facebook platform.

NOTE: IF YOU PLAN TO STREAM MUSIC THAT IS DONE IN YOUR SERVICE, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU ADD A LOWER THIRD TO YOUR MUSIC SEGMENT. THIS LOWER THIRD WILL CONTAIN THE FOLLOWING: CCL LICENSE NUMBER - (your ccl license number).

To stream to Facebook manually, please follow these steps. If you're using an older version of the Facebook Producer, there are more instructions below.

Step 1

Log into your Facebook account and then navigate to the Facebook Live producer dashboard: https://www.facebook.com/live/producer

Here we're going to select to select stream now or in the next 24 hours.

Step 3

Next you'll need to select where you are streaming to, when you're going to stream and then choose the privacy for the stream.
