Live Stream Lesson Creation

Note: This instruction is for creating Live Stream lessons for your course. If you missed the documentation for creating a complete course, please review it here: https://docs.masteriyo.com/course-creation/complete-course-creationexternal.

Adding Live Stream Lesson

Navigate to Masteriyo > Courses and choose the course where you want to stream live lesson. Now, switch to the Builder tab and you will be directed to a new interface where you can add Live Stream Lessons.

  • Click on Add New Content.

  • Click on Add Live Stream Lesson. A new interface for adding lesson will be shown.

Add Lesson Details

Lesson Name - Enter the title of your lesson in the "Your Lesson Name" field.

Add Video URL

You can add your live stream link in the Video URL field. For example, if you live stream on YouTube, you can directly add the YouTube video link. Alternatively, you can use a Video URL from another platform where the video is already hosted and present it as a live stream.

  • Start Time: Set the start time for the live stream.
  • End Time: Set the end time for the live stream.

Add Lesson Description

Use the editor to write a detailed description of the lesson. You can type directly or use the +/Block option to add content blocks, such as text, images, or other elements. Formatting options are available in the toolbar above the editor (e.g., bold, alignment, etc.).

Configure Video Settings

On the right-hand panel, you can adjust the following settings:

  • Enable Video Share: Toggle this option to allow or restrict video sharing.
  • Enable Right Click: Enable or disable right-click functionality on the video.
  • Enable Live Chat: Enable or disable the live chat feature during the live streaming.
  • Enable Lesson Preview [Pro]: Toggle the Enable Lesson Preview option if you want to allow students to preview the lesson before enrolling.
  • Transform live stream to video [Pro]: Toggle the option to convert the Live Stream to normal video so that users can access the video after the live session ends.

Meanwhile, you need to configure Player settings with YouTube API keys before you can transform a live stream into a normal video lesson. So, on your new tab, navigate to Masteriyo > Settings > General > Player.
Now, paste your YouTube API key under the API keys and click on Save Setting.

  • Publish: Make the lesson live and accessible to users.

After saving, preview the Live Stream Lesson to confirm the video appears correctly in the player:
