More platforms. Not more upload.
Multistreaming from your encoder multiplies your upload by every platform you add. RV-StreamRelay takes one stream and opens one outbound connection per destination on its own line, so your connection does the same work for ten platforms as it does for one.
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 any encoder that speaks RTMP or SRT. It is usually under Settings, Stream, with the service set to 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.
Clip editor
Turn your last stream into short vertical clips without downloading anything or installing an editor. It is built into the dashboard, and it works on the stream you just finished.
How it works
The relay keeps one temporary recording of your most recent stream. Open the editor, trim the moment, and frame it for where it is going: 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 or 4:3, as the full frame, a crop on the action, or a split-screen stack with gameplay above your camera. Add captions and text, render, and download the finished clip.
Never an archive
RV keeps exactly one recording per creator, and only for a short clipping window after the stream ends; the dashboard shows the exact deadline for your plan. Going live again replaces it, and when the window closes it deletes itself. It is working space for cutting clips, not storage: rendered clips are kept, the recording is not. Recording never touches the stream your viewers receive.
Auto Clip
Auto Clip ranks the moments of your recording from real signals: your clip hotkey, in-game events reported through RV-Core, chat spikes and audio peaks. It shows you why it picked each one, and every pick is a draft you review. It never publishes anything on its own, and it does not watch or interpret the video itself.
| Package | Manual clipping | Auto Clip | Clips a month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | Included | $4.99 a month add-on | 10 |
| Standard | Included | $4.99 a month add-on | 30 |
| Professional | Included | Included | 100 |
| Business | Included | Included | 250 |
Manual clipping comes with every package. Auto Clip is a $4.99 add-on on Starter and Standard, and included above them.
How far each package goes
Set the bitrate you stream at and compare the hours of streaming each package covers in a month. The figures use the same rate the relay meters usage with.
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.
How do cancellations work?
Cancel whenever you like, from your dashboard, in one click. Your plan keeps working until the end of the period you have already paid for, and nothing is taken back. If you change your mind before then, one more click puts it back and the next renewal carries on as though you never cancelled.
Can I get a refund?
Within 24 hours of starting your first subscription, yes — for the bandwidth you have not used. Stream nothing and you get everything back. Use half your allowance and you get half back. Your dashboard shows the exact figure before you ask for it, so there is nothing to negotiate and no ticket to raise.
After 24 hours we do not refund, and we do not prorate a part-used month. That is not us being difficult: we are billed by the gigabyte for the bandwidth you have already sent, and unlike the larger platforms we have no investor money absorbing it. Cancelling always works, and you always keep what you have paid for until the period ends.
One refund per account. Renewals are not refundable — the 24 hours applies to your first subscription.
