With Be.Live, you can easily customize your branding (overlay, theme, background or logo).

Getting started

From the Be.Live studio, click Branding from the toolbar:

Overlay

The overlay serves as a frame or filter for your broadcast. Choose from the available overlays or upload your own by clicking Add Overlay. Once done, click Apply.

Guidelines for a custom overlay

Ratio - 16:9
Supported formats - .png
Maximum size - 15 MB
Must be transparent

Deleting a custom overlay

To delete a custom overlay, click the bin icon on the lower left corner.

Reminder: Avoid putting text on the upper left part of the frame to avoid it from being blocked by the "LIVE" logo.

Theme

At the moment, there are two available theme options: Modern (left) and Classic (right)

Select a theme and click Apply.

Reminder: With the Classic theme, you can customize the colors of your title and crawler. Simply click Edit colors at the bottom. Select Background and Text colors by entering a specific hex code, or clicking on the circles to select from the color wheel.

Once custom colors are set, click Done. After choosing your theme and colors, click Apply.

Logo

The logo represents your brand and your image. Select the Be.Live logo or upload your own by clicking Add Logo. Once done, click Apply.
