  • RTMPS Server (always visible)
  • Stream Key (masked by default — click reveal to view, click copy to copy)


Step 2 — Open OBS → Settings → Stream

  • Service: Custom
  • Server: rtmps://live.cloudflare.com:443/live/
  • Stream Key: paste your key from the dashboard


Step 3 — Configure your scene Set up your camera, audio, overlays — same as any other stream.

Step 4 — Click Start Streaming in OBS OBS connects to BCKSTG. Your dashboard status bar updates from idle (pulsing dot) to LIVE NOW (solid red dot) within a few seconds.

Step 5 — You're live Your fan page updates automatically. Fans visiting your profile see the live player. The LIVE ON BCKSTG badge appears on your social links.
