Can I allow different people to login and publish to the same livestream?

Does the UI of the publisher in the web console support multi-publisher? Is it possible for different users to log in to the dashboard at the same time and publish on the same stream?

Yes! With multisource streams you can broadcast a live stream with multiple audio and video feeds that come from different sources entirely. This is then enabled in the hosted player as a multi-view so that an end-user can select which feed to watch at any moment.

For a source code example, check out the dolbyio-samples/rts-app-react-publisher-viewer. This is a web application using React that supports multi-source publishing with up to four separate sources and supports many of the features available with real-time streaming.

If you are trying to create something more like a video conference where multiple hosts can both speak and listen to one another, you might be looking for our communications solution which then allows you to broadcast out as a live stream. You can find sample code for this type of application in the dolbyio-samples/comms-app-react-events repository which you can deploy to netlify or try it out first with a live demo.
