A first for Event Streaming .TV was the new feature within Facebook to crosspost a live webcast.
Jamie from Event Streaming .TV : “Crossposting is a great new feature allowing us to broadcast across multiple pages without the need for multiple encoders. For example we streamed the official opening live to the Buckingham Palace Facebook page and cross posted simultaneously to the Commonwealth, with viewing figures at just over 580,000”
