If you use a third-party encoder, follow YouTube’s RTMP(S) dual-stream setup and use the corresponding stream keys. Decide on vertical delivery before going live: YouTube says, “You can’t add the vertical format once the stream has started.”
In the Shorts feed on mobile, viewers see the vertical version; other viewers see the horizontal version when dual streaming. Both use the same live chat. YouTube’s format comparison lists clickable links in chat or the channel description, pre-roll and mid-roll ads, and live redirect as horizontal-only capabilities, so do not promise them for the vertical live feed. See YouTube Help: Get started with live streaming.
Vertical live, horizontal live, or a playlist?
| Choice | What it does | Important considerations |
|---|---|---|
| Vertical live | Provides a full-screen mobile experience and can be discovered in the Shorts feed. | Vertical is 9:16. In dual streaming, the default is a center crop, with other layout options available. Configure it before starting. The YouTube comparison lists some features, including clickable links in chat or channel description and pre-roll or mid-roll ads, as horizontal-only. |
| Horizontal live | Delivers a conventional live viewing format. | Horizontal is 16:9. YouTube’s comparison says horizontal live streams are not discoverable in the Shorts feed. Dual streaming can deliver horizontal alongside vertical through Live Control Room. |
| Playlist of vertical videos | Collects videos in one organized playlist. | It is not a live stream and does not change the format of videos within it. A playlist does not provide live-stream features or shopping eligibility. |
