RTMP Configuration Table

Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) allows creators to use external live stream tools (ex: StreamYard, OBS, etc) to manage their stream while it's live for a more engaging experience while broadcasting it to different platforms such as Locals. You may only start a stream using RTMP from the community website.
