If you wish to use another studio rather than Bundle, check the article Using external studios.

VTEX broadcast studio is called Bundle, and in this article you will learn how to make all the necessary configurations in our native studio solution.

To access the studio in VTEX Admin and start transmitting the live, in the Event Information page, go to the Streaming Studio section:

To enable the fields, the event has to be turned on, so that its status is Live.

The settings in this section do the following:

• Copy invitation: By clicking it, it generates and copies a link that can be sent to influencers or hosts. By accessing the link, they will be able to turn their camera and microphone on or off, as well as view the chat within the studio. However, they will not have access to any other actions.
• Access: Redirects you to the Device settings page in the Bundle studio, where you can manage cameras, upload graphic assets, start / end the transmission, among other actions. This configuration is restricted to the broadcast studio administrators only.

Both hosts using the link generated with the Copy invitation button and administrators using the Access button are redirected to Bundle’s Device settings page, where they can select the camera and microphone they wish to use and run tests to ensure everything is working properly.

In the Device settings page, when you click Enter the studio, you are redirected to the My Studio page, as shown in the example below. a vertical layout type:

Before transmitting from Bundle, you must select the layout type you want for the screen, because once in the My Studio page, this event layout cannot be altered anymore. To change afterwards, it would be necessary to create a new event.

In the left navigation menu, you have the following sections (administrators only, except for the Chat private):

• My Studio (current)
• My Assets
• My destinations
• Chat private
• Settings

In My Studio menu option, the numbers 1 to 5 show which settings can be done by guests and administrators, while numbers 6 to 9 are reserved for administrators only:

• 1. Invite people: Generates the same shareable link when clicking Copy invitation in the Streaming Studio section. This link can be shared with influencers and hosts.
• 2. Activate/deactivate microphone: Control your own microphone settings.
• 3. Activate/deactivate camera: Turn your own camera on or off.
• 4. Share screen: Allows the host (including guests / influencers) to share their screen, choosing which window or screen to display.
• 5. End meeting: Presents two options to end the broadcast, one that ends the event for everyone and removes all participants from the studio, and another where only the person leaves the meeting. More information in the Ending the transmission section.

• 6. Manage users: The three-dot menu options allows you to mute someone's microphone or remove them or a device from the Bundle studio. The option Active selects the person being displayed in the live. This configuration is exclusive to administrators.
• 7. Activate/deactivate connected devices/host: When the Active checkbox is marked, it allows the device or participant to be visible or audible in the mainstream, and the microphone icon indicates who has their microphone currently on (blue) or off (red). The activating configuration is exclusive to administrators.
• 8. Screen composition: Presents the screen options available to arrange participants and devices. The different options are more or less suitable depending on the transmission number of participants and devices. This configuration is exclusive to administrators.
• 9. Go live: Starts and stops broadcasting the event to the public. This configuration is exclusive to administrators.

In Assets menu option, you can create and manage the assets for your live, all explained in the following topics:

• Asset types
• Assets dimensions
• Adding an asset
• Removing an asset

These assets types are the following:

• Banners: Create the text and choose the background color for the banner. It will always appear at the bottom of the stream. You can choose whether you want it to move or remain fixed on screen.
• Overlay: Select an image to overlay on top of the camera or a graphic asset, except over videos. This allows the background or host to remain visible all the whole time.
• Background: Choose an image format to be the background of the broadcast. The background is always visible, unless a video is playing in the broadcast or the camera feed of participants is activated and added to the transmission.
• Video: Upload a video to enhance the broadcast and overlay it on top of cameras or graphic assets.
• Logo: Place an image of your logo on the top right corner, overlaying it over any camera or graphic asset, except over video.

Besides that, there is a Show display names option. When you log in Bundle, you fill the field Name, which can be displayed in the live by enabling this configuration.

The name will appear in white letters against a dark background, which cannot be changed. However, you can customize the initial stripe color, as it is taken from Banners > Theme Color. Creating a banner is not necessary to activate this option, you only have to define the theme color, which is black by default. The image below is an example of a pink Theme Color:

In the Chat private menu option, there is a chat for internal communication between the administrator and the other participants presenting the event. This private chat exchanges real-time questions during the transmission, and is useful for internal organization.

On the left bottom of the menu, you will find the Settings. By clicking it, you will see the camera and audio configurations, which can be adjusted before or during the transmission. Configuring the Settings is available for both the administrator and participants hosting the event.
