Multi-platform delivery
Operate one reviewed input and monitor every destination as a separate output.
CHURCH LIVE STREAMING
Run every service from one clear live video workflow
Receive the programme feed, check it before viewers notice a problem, send it to the required platforms, and preserve a recording for later playback—all from the same Callaba deployment.
SERVICE-DAY WORKFLOW
One contribution feed, several audience outcomes
Give staff and volunteers an operating sequence that can be rehearsed before the service begins.
- 01
Connect
Bring the programme output from OBS, a hardware encoder, or the venue production system into Callaba.
- 02
Check
Confirm the input and destination state in Multiview and live telemetry.
- 03
Distribute
Send the same reviewed feed to YouTube, Facebook, a website player, or another approved destination.
- 04
Keep
Record the service for an archive, catch-up page, or controlled on-demand playback.
FOR SMALL AND GROWING TEAMS
A workflow volunteers can understand and engineers can extend
Start from the visible product controls and introduce API automation only after the live sequence is reliable.
Service recording
Preserve each live programme for replay, editing, or a media archive.
Cloud or church-owned server
Choose a managed cloud launch or keep the software and media on Linux infrastructure you control.
WHERE THE WORKFLOW FITS
Use the same operating model across real production scenarios
Weekly services
Standardize the recurring path from the venue feed to viewers and the recording archive.
Conferences and special events
Add temporary destinations, remote contributors, or paid access without replacing the base workflow.
Multi-campus ministries
Receive feeds from several locations and route approved programmes to local or online audiences.
Multi-room worship distribution
Route the reviewed service feed to another room or campus display while keeping online delivery and recording in the same operating plan.
PRODUCT LAYER
Choose the Callaba products behind the workflow
Start with the modules the operators need. Add the remaining capabilities as the production path, audience, and retention plan become clear.
IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE
Read the church streaming guideBuild the service-day workflow with OBS, failover, and recording
Follow a practical runbook from contribution and operator checks to destination delivery and an owned recording.
OPTIONAL AUTOMATION LAYER

Create one restream job per destination, start delivery after the source is healthy, and inspect every output independently.
WORKFLOW QUESTIONS
Church live streaming FAQ
Can one church stream go to several platforms?
Yes. Callaba can use one reviewed live input for multiple destination jobs, with separate state and statistics for each output.
Can volunteers operate Callaba without writing API code?
Yes. The normal service workflow is available through the product interface. The API is an optional automation layer.
Can every service be recorded automatically?
Recording can be configured as part of the operating workflow and attached to storage chosen by the team.
Can Callaba run on church-owned infrastructure?
Yes. A self-hosted Linux deployment is available alongside cloud deployment.
Can we monitor the stream before the audience reports a problem?
Callaba exposes live source and destination state, and Multiview provides a browser-visible operating surface for the team.
