Stream once. Go live everywhere.
Point your encoder at one RV ingest and RV-StreamRelay forwards the identical video and audio packets to every platform you connect. Your PC uploads a single stream, so a 15 Mbps connection can carry four platforms at once. Uploading four separate 8 Mbps streams from OBS alone is physically impossible on that line; forwarding one of them four times from the relay is routine.
How it works
Three steps, and the first two are one-time setup.
Point your encoder at RV
Copy the ingest server URL and your personal stream key from the dashboard into OBS, vMix, or anything that speaks RTMP or SRT. In OBS that is Settings, Stream, Custom.
Connect your platforms
Paste each platform's stream key once. Keys are encrypted before they are stored and never displayed again, only the last four characters. Toggle destinations on and off per stream.
Go live
Start streaming in your encoder. The relay checks your plan, opens a connection to every enabled destination, and forwards your stream to all of them until you stop.
Why the quality holds
When you stream to one platform directly, your encoder compresses the video once and that platform receives the exact bitstream it produced. RV-StreamRelay keeps that property across every destination.
A copy, not a conversion
The relay reads your incoming RTMP or SRT stream and writes the same H.264 video and AAC audio packets to each outbound connection. Nothing is decoded, scaled, or compressed again. There is no second encode, so there is no generation loss to have.
What each platform receives
A stream bit-identical to the one you sent. Quality is decided entirely by your encoder settings, exactly as if you had streamed to that platform alone. Adding a destination adds an outbound copy at the relay; it never touches your stream.
The honest trade-off
Every destination receives the same stream, so pick encoder settings the strictest platform you target accepts: resolution, bitrate, keyframe interval. Per-destination re-encoding is deliberately not part of the standard path, because a second encode costs quality and that is the wrong default.
Pricing
Every plan is a monthly subscription with a cheaper annual option. The bandwidth allowance is the data the relay sends to your platforms in a month: your stream's bitrate, times hours live, times destinations. An 8 Mbps stream uses about 3.6 GB an hour for each destination.
Questions creators actually ask
Do I need a faster internet connection to multistream?
No. Your encoder uploads one stream to the relay, the same upload cost as streaming to a single platform. The relay makes the copies on its side, on its own bandwidth.
Is quality reduced when I add more platforms?
No. Every destination receives the same encoded packets your encoder produced. Adding a destination adds an outbound copy at the relay and changes nothing about your stream.
What counts against my monthly allowance?
Data the relay sends out to your platforms while you are live. An 8 Mbps stream to four platforms sends about 14.4 GB an hour in total. The dashboard shows your usage for the current billing period and the date it resets.
Which platforms can I connect?
YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Rumble, Facebook Live, X, Trovo and more, plus a custom RTMP destination for anything else that accepts RTMP or RTMPS. The full catalogue, with per-platform setup notes, is in the dashboard.
Do you store my platform stream keys?
Keys are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before they are stored, and are never displayed again after you save them; the dashboard shows only the last four characters. You can replace or remove a key at any time, and your RV ingest key can be rotated with one click.
Are platforms fine with simulcasting?
Mostly, with conditions. Some platforms attach terms to simulcasting: Twitch, for example, requires comparable quality across the platforms you simulcast to. You stream under your own accounts and your own keys, so those terms apply to you. Read them before going live everywhere.
What exactly is in the trial?
3 days, 2 platforms, 720p ingest, 25 GB of relay bandwidth, and an RV watermark. No payment details are needed to start it. It is a taste of the product rather than a free tier: when it ends, your destinations and settings are kept, and subscribing turns them back on.
