• Enable whether there is a Golden point or not.
• Click Update once all settings shave been configured.

Step 4: Click Go Live in the top right of the dashboard.

Step 4: Click “Copy Stream Link”

• Next you’re going to click copy stream link and paste this into OBS.

Step 5: Initiate adding the browser source to PRISM Live by clicking the plus button on the dashboard.

Step 6: Click Browser

• Click browser as the source and then click OK.

Step 7: Click OK

Next, you can optionally name your browser source and then click OK.

Step 8: Add URL and change the Width & Height.

Paste the URL from Step 4 into the URL textbox and change the width to 1920 and the height to 1080.

• Once you have the above complete, click the close button.

Step 9: Your overlay should now appear in your PRISM Live live stream.
