Live input
dodocast does not yet accept a stream from a camera or encoder. Broadcasts and channels play videos you have uploaded.
How the console is organized
The menu is on the left. Catalog holds everything you create: Projects, All media, Playlists, Broadcasts, Channels, Background videos. At the bottom are Service Plans, Resource Usage, your balance and Support.
Every media item, playlist, broadcast and channel has tabs: what to show (Content), who can watch (Access), where it is published and how it performs (Analytics). You can set access and appearance once for a project or the account — media inherit them.
Where to start
- Quickstart — your first video and a link to it in five minutes.
- Key concepts — project, media, playlist, broadcast, channel.
- Plans and limits — what a plan includes and what counts as overage.
