πŸ“† Scheduled Streams


Castream’s Scheduled Streams let you upload a video once and automatically broadcast it as a live stream to all your connected platforms at a set time β€” no OBS, no manual start, no being online when it goes live. (Castream)

🎯 What Scheduled Streams Are

  • Upload a video file to Castream
  • Pick your destinations (YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, TikTok, Instagram & more)
  • Set a date and time
  • Castream will play the video as live at the schedule you chose β€” even if you’re offline (Castream)
Scheduled streams feel like a real live broadcast to viewers β€” complete with chat, reactions, and platform engagement β€” but you don’t have to push a button when it starts. (Castream)

πŸš€ How It Works

  1. Upload a video
  1. Create a scheduled stream and choose which destinations it goes to
  1. Set the date & time
  1. Castream automatically starts the broadcast at the scheduled moment β€” no Go Live click needed (Castream)
