How Do I Use Live? Do I Need to Create a Channel?

Conventional livestreaming requires an encoder to push streams. Each livestream has a unique ingest URL, but you do not need to create an ingest URL in advance when using Live. In RTMP push, the StreamName field is added to LiveID. When a user requests to play a live video in an ingest URL, LiveID is used as the unique identifier to meet different viewing requirements.
