Stream your competition from a phone. Families watch live on your event website, wherever they are, and you decide whether it is free or ticketed. If you sell access, the revenue is yours.
Name it and add it to your event. Have more than one field or stadium? Add a stream for each.
Open the Marching Maestro app, tap Live Stream, and point the phone at the field. A tripod helps! Already run OBS? Point it at your stream instead.
The stream appears on your event page. Free, or paid if you set a price.
Pick the headache you know best.
Streaming is a flat fee per stream. What you charge viewers, if anything, is a separate decision, and every dollar of it stays with your program.
Leave the price at zero and anyone with the link watches, no account needed. Set a price and viewers buy access to your event, once, and you keep the revenue.
Every stream is recorded. Turn replay on for the recordings you want to keep available and families can rewatch; leave it off for anything you do not have the rights to rebroadcast.
Streaming is a paid add-on, charged per stream, and the event itself has to be paid for before streaming can be switched on. Replay is set per recording, so one show can have some segments up and others not.
Set the stream up at a desk, run it from a phone.
Add a stream per field or stage, name them so your announcer and volunteers know which is which, and set one viewer price for the event. Recordings land in the same place afterward, each with its own replay switch.
Fans go to your event website and the live stream is right there, next to the schedule. Nothing to download and no second site to send people to. When a stream ends, the page falls back to whatever replays you have allowed.
Turn streaming on for your next event and point a phone at the field.
