Which platforms support 24/7 pre-recorded live streaming?
The platforms you can loop a video to around the clock, and the ones you cannot.
Skip the setup. Stream to YouTube 24/7 from the cloud.
Upload once, paste your stream key, and StreamZop keeps it live around the clock with automatic restarts.

You can run a 24/7 pre-recorded live stream on any platform that gives you an RTMP or RTMPS server URL and a stream key: YouTube, Facebook, Twitch and Kick all do, so all four work with StreamZop. The rule is simple. If a platform hands you a stream key and an ingest URL for streaming software, StreamZop can loop your uploaded video to it from the cloud, 24 hours a day, and restart it automatically if the connection drops. Instagram does not offer public RTMP ingest at all, so no tool can stream a pre-recorded video to Instagram Live. TikTok only provides a stream key to accounts that have unlocked TikTok LIVE, so it works through StreamZop's Custom RTMP option once you have that access. Always follow each platform's own rules about pre-recorded or looped content.
How to go 24/7 on any supported platform
Find your stream key
Open your platform's live or streaming-software settings and copy the persistent stream key and its RTMP/RTMPS server URL. YouTube, Facebook, Twitch and Kick all provide these.
Pick the platform in StreamZop
Choose YouTube, Facebook, Twitch or Kick from the platform menu, or use Custom RTMP and paste the server URL for anything else.
Paste your key and upload a video
Drop in the stream key and upload the video you want to loop, or use audio plus a background image.
Press Go Live
StreamZop broadcasts your video on a loop around the clock from the cloud and reconnects on its own if the platform drops the session.
YouTube
YouTube is the most common home for 24/7 streams and fully allows looping a video you own or are licensed for. See how to stream 24/7 on YouTube and how to get your YouTube stream key.
Facebook Live accepts a persistent stream key over RTMPS, so you can loop a video to a Page around the clock. See how to stream 24/7 to Facebook Live.
Twitch
Twitch accepts your RTMP push with a stream key from the Creator Dashboard. Twitch is a live-first platform, so check its rules on rerun and pre-recorded content before looping. See how to run a 24/7 stream on Twitch.
Kick
Kick provides an RTMP server URL and stream key and is friendly to always-on channels. See how to stream 24/7 on Kick.
Instagram and TikTok
Instagram Live is app-only with no stream key, so a pre-recorded 24/7 stream to Instagram is not possible with any software. TikTok only shows a stream key once your account has TikTok LIVE access; if you have it, use StreamZop's Custom RTMP option with the server URL and key from TikTok LIVE Studio.

Frequently asked questions
Can I stream a pre-recorded video 24/7 to platforms other than YouTube?+
Yes. Any platform that gives you an RTMP or RTMPS server URL and a stream key works, including Facebook, Twitch and Kick. StreamZop loops your uploaded video to it from the cloud around the clock.
Can I stream 24/7 to Instagram?+
No. Instagram Live is app-only and does not provide a stream key or public RTMP ingest, so no software can push a pre-recorded video to Instagram Live.
Does StreamZop work with TikTok?+
Only if your account has TikTok LIVE access, which gives you a stream key and server URL in TikTok LIVE Studio. Paste those into StreamZop's Custom RTMP option and it works like any other destination.
Can I stream to more than one platform at once?+
Each StreamZop stream targets one destination. On the Pro and Business plans you can run several streams at the same time, so you can point separate streams at YouTube, Facebook, Twitch and Kick together.
