I got the trial Dec 2015 and the full app in March 2016... From day 1 it has been very smooth and the app meets my needs very nicely. I really love having a lot of different controls to help optimize bandwidth consumption. Separate bitrate for audio and video streams PLUS audio sampling AND video frame rate controls?! These are features you see on desktop apps, not phone apps! Audio quality is amazing and far exceeds what I was expecting. You can dial down the video feed and do a live podcast over a mobile network with minimum data conumption... or go full HD too... This is the best option for live streaming to YouTube at present and it has enhanced my channel greatly. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!

Hi, I have been using the Trial Version 6 months ago, Recently reuse the Trial version to check if Tail version works with PreScheduled youtube event that setup from youtube Web page, Tested result look great. It worth to pay $4.99 , just to support the developer to enhance this app more. I am planning to use my Cell phone Samsung Note 5 with this app to live stream 1080i 30fps for 3 hours live streaming. Plus , this apps works with multi youtube account , in case anyone has multi youtube account, this app will works without any issue. 1 last suggestion, Still wish to have 4K recording soon, Thanks , Please reply if any plan to support 4K recording for any Samsung Device.Thanks

Never got past the encoding stage. Just shut down the stream. Tried every setting including the lowest, and hybrid encoder. Developer was amazing with help provided to get the app figured out.

This app does have a bit of a learning curve, but after using it, I wouldn`t use any other. There are so many options to choose from, this app is very flexible.

Fantastic. Takes a bit of setting up and tweaking of settings to get the output right for your connection but once that's done it works brilliantly. Download the trial version if your unsure, it gives you all the features and settings to test before you decide to buy.

I first wrote that it wasn't working--clicking on START EVENT just clicked and never started. The author responded that it was likely I was using too high of a resolution / bitrate. I found that unlikely, I have 4G and at home where I was testing this I get anywhere from 10-20 mb/s, So I played around and it appears that when you start from the app it works fine, but if you schedule in advance from YouTube (which is what I need to do), and browse and start, the default resolution doesn't match YouTubes. E.g. selecting a 1280x720 on YouTube it had a 320x240 setting in the app. This mismatch appears to be the problem I was having. Changing it manually to match what I specified on YouTube worked. I was able to do every resolution over my 4G, up to 1920x1080 without any problems. So if you run into the issue I did, try the above. Great app--changed my rating and purchased full app.

It is really great app for doing Live broadcast/streaming directly on YouTube channel from your Android device. If only for YouTube live, then I will definitely recommend this. Please know some live streaming basics and encoder settings before buying to avoid troubles. For serious video recording professionals, it might be better to try "BigVencoder" made by the same developers. Thank you once more Maurice Randall for replying with so much patience when I faced trouble buying the App. Finally I Bought it.
