When streaming a webinar via YouTube:
The recording of the webinar will be automatically saved on your YouTube channel when it is finished.
The broadcast takes place simultaneously in the lesson video section and on your YouTube channel (if "public access" is selected in the broadcast settings). This can be useful if you have a public webinar and need to reach the audience of subscribers to your channel (they will get a notification about the broadcast).
To be able to host and embed live broadcasts on your YouTube channel, you need to go through phone number verification and channel verification.
Earlier it was necessary to additionally connect AdSense service to your channel to enable live broadcasting. New YouTube channels currently require no AdSense connection. Contact YouTube Help Center for more details.
All you have to do after creating a channel is to confirm your number and in 24 hours you'll be able to create broadcasts and embed them in other websites.
If you already have a previously created channel on YouTube and embedding is not available you can try to create a new channel and broadcast from it.
You can broadcast in any way that YouTube supports:
via webcam;
XSplit Broadcaster;
OBS studio;
other video encoder.
Please note: when broadcasting with a webcam, the webinar recording in Youtube does not save the presentation being shown. If you want to save the presentation as a recording, the broadcast must be created with a video encoder program that allows you to make a screen recording.
