Getting Started

Open Live Studio is the browser-based production controller for the Open Live platform. It provides a collaborative interface for managing live productions, controlling sources, and coordinating broadcast workflows entirely from the browser.

Open Live Studio is the frontend component of the Open Live stack. It connects to an Open Live backend instance. If you are setting up Open Live from scratch, follow the Open Live guide first — it creates the full stack including CouchDB, Strom, and Open Live, and the studio interface is accessible directly through the Open Live instance.

Use this service when you want to deploy an additional studio frontend pointing at an existing Open Live backend — for example, to give a remote team their own controller URL, or to run a dedicated studio instance separate from the backend.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Get your Open Live backend URL

Navigate to the Open Live service and click on your running instance. Copy the instance URL — it will look like:

https://<name>.eyevinn-open-live.auto.prod.osaas.io

Step 2: Create an Open Live Studio instance

Navigate to the Open Live Studio service and click Create open-live-studio.

Field Value
Name A name for this studio instance
OpenLiveUrl The Open Live backend URL from Step 1

When the instance status turns green, click on its card to open the production controller in your browser.

Using Open Live Studio

From the studio interface you can:

  • View and activate live productions
  • Manage and control production sources
  • Monitor production status in real time
  • Collaborate with other producers connected to the same backend

All state is persisted via the Open Live backend API — the studio itself is stateless.

CLI Usage

osc create eyevinn-open-live-studio mystudio \
  -o OpenLiveUrl="https://myprod.eyevinn-open-live.auto.prod.osaas.io"
