The YoloLiv Instream is an all-in-one multicam vertical live streaming studio that has been designed specifically for content creators wanting to stream to platforms such as Instagram or TikTok.
Instream is essentially a 7″ box that features an encoder, switcher, recorder and monitor. Apart from that it also allows you to use tools such as a graphic generator, multiview builder, and a vertical content creation tool.
With over 75% of social media material consumed vertically. The traditional 16:9, landscape format is now being sadly replaced by 9:16 whether you like it or not. I’m personally not a fan of vertical video, but you can’t ignore it in today’s media landscape. Facebook, YouTube, Instagram (IGTV), Snapchat and TikTok all rely heavily on vertical video.
Instream was developed for those very reasons so that users could create more engaging vertical content using multiple camera angles with live switching, graphic overlays, animated countdown timers, Picture in Picture, and Chroma Key.
Instream has a lot of the same features as found in the current YoloBox lineups. It includes 2 HDMI inputs and 1 USB input and supports Wi-Fi, 4G LTE and Ethernet connections. Just like the YoloBox, Instream is operated via a touch screen and can be used intuitively like a smartphone.
YoloLiv Instream utilizes a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 and an 8-core processor. The LCD touchscreen has 600 nits of brightness.
One of the main benefits of Instream is that you can livestream with multiple cameras vertically without the need for a computer and something like OBS.
