Is there a play button on the Zoom live stream platform?

Hello,

Q1. ​Is there a play button like Youtube so that attendees can pause​ (for seconds) and play it again on the ​Zoom ​live stream ​platform?​
Q​2​. I know I can embed a meeting. ​Am I also able to embed a live stream too?
Thank you very much,

Hi @Mikirinne 

 

Live Zoom meetings cannot be paused and resumed within Zoom. If you stream your meeting to a streaming platform like YouTube, then viewers could pause and resume it there (subject to settings) but not directly in Zoom.

 

I don't know of a way to embed a meeting. Do you have a way?

Correct - on a Paid account, you can stream to Facebook and YouTube and other custom destinations.

 

Note - this is not possible on a Basic/Free account.

Thank you Rupert,


I started to understand how Zoom live streaming works now. I misunderstood that Zoom has its live stream platform.
I can stream my Zoom meeting to third party platforms such as Youtube and FB, right?

Also, please disregard embedding. I am sorry.
