Streaming Video with The Cube

NOPE THIS IS DONE, they got bought out. See this page for current info as of May 2018.

STEPS 1 THROUGH 7 SHOULD BE DONE ON A COMPUTER, it's easier.

1. Go to https://thecube.com/cube/crossroads-academy-lyme-new-hampshire/ and log in if prompted. Username is videostream@crossroadsacademy.org

Click the gear icon and select "Schedule a Stream."

2. For type of event, select "Other."

3. On the next screen, choose a topic.

4. For "which cubes are participating", Crossroads is already selected; just click the righthand button.

5. Give the event a title, description, start date, start hour, start minute, AM or PM, and a duration. The duration does not have to be exact, it won't cut off or anything like that.

6. On the next screen, scroll down and click "Continue as Standard."

7. On the next screen, copy or write down the URL in the "Share your event" box. THIS is what will need to be posted on the website, emailed to people, etc. who want to watch.

NOW GET ON THE IPAD.

8. Open the Cube app. It should already be logged in, but if not, log in. Once it loads, click the little broadcast icon in the lower left corner:

9. Find the event you scheduled. When ready to broadcast, click the "Go Live" button.

Audience may see one advertisement before the broadcast begins.

Their window will say something like "waiting for broadcast/stream" until the iPad actually starts recording/streaming.

If the cameraman stops recording, e.g. for an intermission or to move the iPad/camera, then the audience will see something like this:

The video will continue automatically once the cameraman starts recording again.
