In order to import a recording of a live webcast stream into a VideoManager, you must define your VideoManager here and provide the necessary access data. Doing this allows you to enable automatic importing of the recording of any of your webcasts into the defined VideoManager. In addition, this VideoManager can be used to assign a video that will play during the pre-live, post-live, and on demand states of your webcast. Videos are then played out directly from the defined VideoManager in the webcast.
To create a new VideoManager in the WebcastManager, proceed as follows:
The create form will open. Enter the following information for your VideoManager:
