Where can sidelineHD publish your stream?

1. sidelineLIVE: Available for all teams ( the sidelineLIVE feed is only available while live)
    Each game has a unique link but the sidelineLIVE link is always the same 
   Currently, sidelineLIVE offers live viewing only, but we are working on introducing post-game viewing options in the future.
   We currently publish all streams at 720p, providing a consistent and high-quality viewing experience.
2. YouTube: YouTube remains the most viable and user-friendly streaming platform.  YouTube streams have higher quality, live DVR, and the ability to watch via app or smart TV. A YouTube page is a great alternative to a Facebook Group with the ability to change privacy settings of streams to unlisted or private.

3. Facebook Profile

4. Facebook Page
   
   
   
   
   Sharing your sidelineLIVE link: ( the sidelineLIVE feed is only available while live)
   Go to your team page, Settings>Stream Settings>Stream Publishing
   There is a share button next to your sidelineLIVE feed. This link is always the same. Press share to copy the link to your clipboard, and paste it into any team chat, message, or anywhere you'd like. If the stream is live, and your fans go to this page, the stream will load; if you are not live, they will be redirected to your team page.
   
   
   
   
   
   Using the Share Tool built inside sidelineSCORE
   
   This tool utilizes your phone’s native share function or copy-paste tools for a streamlined experience, ensuring you can stay connected where your audience is. 
   
   You can share the game link, YouTube link, or Facebook link anywhere.

   Once the stream is live and you’ve started the game:

   1. Tap the Share button (bottom right corner) when scoring in sidelineSCORE.

   2. If the stream is live and published to its destination (FB Page/Profile or YouTube), you’ll see the links.

   3. Option A: Tap Copy Link to copy the stream or game page link to your clipboard. Then paste it into your team chat, group message, Facebook post, etc.
   Option B: Tap Share Link to use your device’s native share options.

   4. Choose the app, person or group you want to share with.

   If you don’t see the app (e.g., Facebook), swipe to the right, tap MORE, find the app, and make it a favorite so it always appears. Tap Done to return to the share screen.
