Cosa fa questo modulo

A Web player is the audience boundary. Verify the media first, then configure who may watch, what the page looks like and whether a scheduled or paid access step applies.

Prima di iniziare

  • A verified live source or finalized media file.

  • The audience policy: open, password, per-viewer credentials or PayPal pay-per-view.

  • Approved branding assets and event schedule when used.
