How MP4-to-live streaming works

Live streams get the best treatment platforms have to offer: priority in search, the Live tab, and notifications that actually reach subscribers. But being live in real time means production pressure, single-take audio, and showing up at 6 AM for another time zone's prime time.

Streaming an MP4 as live gives you both halves: record and edit the content until it is right, then let Livepush broadcast it from the cloud as a real live stream. Viewers get the live experience and the chat; you get editing, retakes, and your schedule back.

Airs as LIVE Live chat on 40+ platforms
Polished content, live energy
Edit, colour-grade, and perfect the video first. The broadcast still gets live chat, live notifications, and the algorithm boost.
Zero streaming hardware
No camera, no capture card, no OBS. If you have a finished video file, you have everything a broadcast needs.
Be your own audience
While the video airs, you are free to sit in the chat, greet viewers, and answer questions live. The best of both formats.

From file to live broadcast in minutes

Upload MP4, MOV, or MKV files to your dashboard, from 480p up to 4K. Pick destinations, go live now or schedule for later, and Livepush handles the playout entirely from the cloud, at up to 60 FPS depending on your plan.

  • Fast uploads supporting MP4, MOV, MKV; H.264 + AAC recommended
  • 480p to 4K output at 30 or 60 FPS, by plan
  • Go live instantly or schedule the broadcast for later

  • Live badge, chat, Super Chats, and notifications work exactly as normal
  • Live content gets algorithmic priority over regular uploads
  • Permitted on YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, Twitch, and most major platforms

Streaming MP4s:
Common Questions

Formats, quality, playlists, loops, and what viewers actually see.

How do I stream an MP4 video as a live broadcast?
Upload the MP4 to your Livepush dashboard, choose your platforms, and either go live immediately or schedule a time. Livepush broadcasts the file from its servers as a genuine live stream. No OBS, no encoder, no camera, and your computer can be off.
Will viewers know the stream is pre-recorded?
On YouTube and most platforms, the broadcast is indistinguishable from a real-time stream: viewers see the live badge, live chat, and live viewer count. Many creators join their own chat to answer questions while the video plays, which makes the session fully interactive.
What video formats and quality does Livepush support?
MP4, MOV, MKV, and other common formats are supported; MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio gives the best results. Streams can run at up to 4K resolution at 30 or 60 FPS depending on your plan, and uploads from 480p upward are accepted.
Can I combine multiple videos into a single live stream?
Yes. Arrange several uploads into a playlist and Livepush plays them back-to-back as one continuous broadcast. You can even update the playlist while the stream is live: swap videos, reorder content, or add new clips without interrupting the broadcast.
Can I loop an MP4 to stream 24/7?
Yes. Set a video or playlist to loop continuously for an always-on channel: lofi music streams, TV-style channels, event countdowns. There is no limit on loop count, and platform session limits (like Facebook's 8-hour cap) are handled with automatic restarts. 24/7 looping is available on the Creators plan and above.
Is streaming pre-recorded video as live allowed on YouTube and Facebook?
Yes. Broadcasting pre-recorded videos as live streams is permitted on YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, Twitch, and most major platforms, and is widely used for scheduled shows, courses, product launches, and 24/7 channels.
Why stream a video as live instead of just uploading it?
Live content gets priority treatment: YouTube ranks live streams higher in search and the Live tab, and subscribers are far more likely to get a notification for a live stream than for an upload. Live chat also concentrates your audience in one moment, creating engagement an upload never gets.
Can I multistream an MP4 to several platforms at once?
Yes. One upload goes live on YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, and 40+ platforms simultaneously, exactly like a regular Livepush multistream. The number of simultaneous destinations depends on your plan.
