There are two ways to livestream with YouTube Live.



  • During livestreaming, you can view the comments of people who are viewing the contents by checking the Comment window in the AeroCaster LIVE app, and you can post your comments as the person streaming the content.


Getting ready
  • Create a Google account beforehand.
  • Make sure that your iPad is connected to the Internet for livestreaming.
  • When recording: before beginning the livestream, set “Enable Local Record (Program)” from  (Output) Ó “Recording” tab. You can make the recording start automatically at the same time that the livestream begins.
    If the livestream destination hasn’t been set, tap the  (Streaming) button or the [ON AIR] button on the VRC-01 for video recording only.
