Read the guideNew to 24/7 streaming?
A 24/7 stream is simply a livestream that never stops: prerecorded video, looped and broadcast continuously, so there's always something live when a viewer arrives. It's how lofi radios, ambience rooms, and always-on music stations run. For the concept end to end, start with broadcasting pre-recorded video as live or the full lofi radio station walkthrough.
The hard part isn't the streaming itself — it's keeping an encoder running around the clock without leaving your own computer on. These guides cover both the how and the honest trade-offs, from streaming 24/7 without OBS to platform-specific setup for YouTube, Twitch, and Kick.
Already know your goal? Jump straight to looping a single video, multistreaming to two platforms at once, keeping a channel free of copyright strikes, or whether you can actually make money from an always-on channel.
Skip the setup — just go live
