How to use Premiere (pre-recorded live)?

Videosync Premiere lets your audience view and experience your pre-recorded video as a live event. Recording the actual presentation beforehand allows you to focus on engaging with the audience during the premiere. After the live, the recording will be instantly available as a published recording.

Steps to create a Premiere event

• First, create an event and set the event time for the desired premiere time. You can use an existing event or create a new one. If you need help, check Create a new event with Videosync.
• When you have your video ready, go to Edit → Recording editing to select your recordings. You can add multiple videos to the playlist. If you have a slide presentation or polls, you can sync them with the recording. For more information, check Editing and publishing a recording.
• To create a Premiere, go to Advanced Settings → Automatic publishing settings → Premiere a new recording. Turn on the setting to create a scheduled premiere for the event time. You can also modify the texts your audience sees before and after the premiere.
• Change the Event State to Premiere to make sure that the uploaded and edited video is processed to multiple bitrates before the premiere starts.

• Click Preview to explore how your event site will look before, during, and after the premiere.
• Currently you can only preview the countdown page. If you want to check how the video itself looks, temporarily disable the Premiere a new recording setting to see the recording on the preview page.
• Now your Premiere is ready to go.

What happens when you create a Premiere

Before your Premiere starts

• If you have enabled registration, your event site cannot be accessed without it.
• On the event page, your audience will see a countdown timer and the text you set up in Premiere settings. When the event time is reached, the event page will automatically go live.

During your Premiere

• Your recording is streamed to the audience. You can focus on audience feedback and chat questions.
• If you indexed slides or polls in Editing and publishing a recording, those will be activated during the live.

After your Premiere

• When your recording ends, the event site will automatically turn into a published recording. Depending on your recording size, this might take a few minutes.
• Your event is now available as a recording for people who missed the Premiere.
