1. YouTube Subscriber & Viewership Policies

YouTube allows mobile streaming with the NearStream App at 50 subscribers, however, they limit your viewership. You can only have as many viewers as your subscriber count is + 25. Find examples below:

  • If you have 50 subscribers, you can then have 50 + 25 = 75 viewers
  • If you have 700 subscribers, you can then have 700 + 25 = 725 viewers
  • If you have less than 1,000 subscribers and need more viewers for your content than your subscriber count allows then you should use the RTMP option below to go beyond your viewership limit.
  • If you have hit 1,000 subscribers this limit is then removed but the process of validation may take a few weeks for YouTube to process as they confirm the legitimacy of your subscribers.

Below you will find a video showing how to start a live stream to Youtube via RTMP.
