In this concise guide we'll show how you can stream to multiple platforms at the same time using a Linux VPS.
Type in the root password and press enter (It will be hidden).
You can paste prompts into your SSH session by right clicking.
You could view the source code or even make it yourself here: https://github.com/MorrowShore/Prism
It uses docker, nginx and stunnel to allow multistreaming to RTMP and RTMPS destinations.
If you don't intend to stream somewhere, remove the relevant part and the "-e" before it.
Here's an example of a completed prompt, for streaming to Twitch, Youtube and Kick at the same time:
Don't forget to change it with your server's IP.
As for stream key, you can put anything!
This is to make sure you're safe and secure.
and do step 4 again.
Step 2: run this and copy the Image ID:
Step 3: Edit it with Prism's Image ID then run:
Don't spend too much on the VPS, this setup won't require anything really; a 2~4$ /month Ubuntu Linux VPS will suffice,
If you're not a beginner streamer, we advise setting this up with 2 secondary platforms first to see if everything on your side is working as intended.
We first set this up for our own streamers, and it works better than we expected, so we decided to share it here as well.
Feel free to let us know if there's an issue, or if you'd like to request support for another destination, on our Discord server.

We're also working on a solution to changing stream titles on multiple platforms at once.

Code:
docker run -it -p 1935:1935 --name prism -e TWITCH_URL="<twitch server>" -e TWITCH_KEY="<twitch key>" -e FACEBOOK_KEY="<facebook key>" -e YOUTUBE_KEY="<youtube key>" -e TROVO_KEY="<trovo key>" -e KICK_KEY="<kick key>" prismHere's an example of a completed prompt, for streaming to Twitch, Youtube and Kick at the same time:
