Overview

Stream more, micromanage less. With the YouTube plugin, manage your broadcasts directly from Stream Deck. No more constantly checking dashboards and entering messages. Now, monitor performance or live chat instantly — all with a key press.

Key actions include:

  • Viewers: Display your stream’s concurrent viewer count. Numbers are shown in real time and update automatically.
  • Chat Message: Post a preset message in your live chat. Great for sharing social links, sponsor info, and channel tools.
  • Play Ad: Inserts an Ad. If eligible, ads are triggered to serve within seconds. It is not guaranteed that all viewers will get an ad. These viewers will continue to watch your live stream.
  • Open Dashboard: Quick access to your live stream dashboard.
  • Start/Stop Stream: Start or stop your live stream.
