Updated November 5, 2026 · 3 min read

StreamLive Pro Studio is a desktop application for live production: you switch between cameras, add titles, record every camera separately and go live. It is built natively for macOS and Windows on a GPU engine (Metal on the Mac, Direct3D 12 on Windows). It is made by StreamLive Pro, the company behind the web studio at streamlivepro.io.

Status on 30 October 2026

Not released yet. There is no public download link. The app is in a preview build that is tested on a Windows PC and a Mac. This page says exactly what works in that build and what does not, and it is updated when that changes.

What it is for

• People who want a vMix-style studio (Preview and Program, input tiles, overlays) on a Mac as well as on Windows.
• Podcasts and talk shows with several cameras that need a separate file for every camera.
• Churches, synagogues, schools and event teams that run a show with studio screens and titles in Hebrew or English.

What works in the preview build

These were tested on both systems in October 2026:

• Preview and Program, Take, Cut, transitions (fade, wipe, push, zoom, through black) and a T-bar.
• 8 overlay channels, layouts, picture in picture.
• Titles and lower thirds, with Hebrew and Arabic text in the right direction, plus titles fed from CSV, Google Sheets or JSON, a scoreboard, a countdown and a ticker.
• Green screen (chroma key) on any input.
• Cameras, microphones, media files and screen or window capture.
• An audio mixer with loudness metering (EBU R128), microphones linked to cameras, and audio that follows the picture.
• Recording of the program and of every input on its own (ISO) with sound, in a crash-safe format, with an FCPXML timeline for Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve. A 30-minute test recording on each system dropped 0 frames.
• A Multiview output on any screen.
• An automatic director that cuts to whoever is speaking (off by default; a manual switch always wins).
• Rules and triggers, keyboard shortcuts and show files you can save and open.

Still in testing

• Going live to the networks of your StreamLive Pro account from the app (in the newest test version; a cloud feature of the account).
• Phone cameras through your account, and remote guests (built, off in the test versions).
• Network cameras (in the newest test version, 0.5.0): NDI sources through the free NDI Tools, which you install from NDI (the app does not include them; without them it can take the camera's own RTSP or SRT stream), PTZ control over VISCA over IP, Panasonic, ONVIF and NDI, and a virtual camera on Windows (not on the Mac yet). Not in it: stinger transitions, instant replay, 3D virtual sets.
• Live translation of captions during a broadcast.

Price

StreamLive Pro Studio is free streaming software. When it is released, everything in it works for free: switching, overlays, titles, green screen, the mixer, recording of the program and every camera, PTZ and NDI cameras, the four modes (Simple, Studio, Broadcast, Gamer) and going live yourself to any network with its stream key (RTMP / RTMPS / SRT). An optional StreamLive Pro account adds cloud features like using your phone as a camera and sending one upload to every connected network through our servers. Shorts, captions and publishing are cloud services of the account on the website.

Planned system requirements

• macOS 13 or later, on Apple silicon (Intel Macs are not tested yet).
• Windows 10 or 11 with a DirectX 12 graphics card.

These may change before release.

Until it is released

The web studio at streamlivepro.io already does multistreaming, podcasts with remote guests, a phone as a camera, automatic Shorts and translated captions on recordings, from any browser on a Mac or a PC. If you use vMix or OBS today, you can keep them and send their output to StreamLive Pro over RTMP.
