Scenes are in private beta. Access is by invitation: when you create a loop, choose Request early access under Scene and tell us what you’ll build. Our team reviews every request within 24 hours. Once you’re approved, Scene shows up as a loop type.
A Scene loop is a live show you design in the Streamloop studio. Instead of playing videos one after another, it lays out everything on one canvas: your playlists, live camera or encoder feeds, web pages, text, logos and live data. Streamloop renders the show in the cloud around the clock, with no OBS and no PC left running.

Video loop or scene loop?

Both stream 24/7 from the cloud, manage your YouTube channel, run on start and stop schedules, and can use a backup stream. Webcam guests are coming soon.

​
Scenes and frames

A scene is what you build and publish. It holds one or more frames, such as “Starting soon”, “Interview” and “Be right back”. One frame is on air at a time. You cut between them from the Live panel, or the show’s script does it for you on a schedule or when data changes.

​
The words you’ll meet

  • Scene: what you build in the studio and publish. A scene loop plays it.
  • Show: everything one scene plays, with all its frames, sources and data.
  • Frame: one arrangement of layers. One frame is on air at a time.
  • Layer: one thing in a frame, such as a video, text, an image or a shape.
  • Source: anything with picture or sound: a file, a playlist, a web page or a live input. Each source shows as live or down.
  • Table: rows of data from a sheet, a file or a feed, which layers can show.
  • Control: a switch or value you set while the show runs, like a “Breaking news” toggle.
  • Transition: how one frame gives way to the next.
  • Publish: makes your edits the live version. Until you publish, edits are a draft nobody sees on air.

​
Create a scene loop

1

Start a new loop

On the Loops page, click New loop, enter a Loop name, and pick the Resolution and Framerate.
2

Choose scene

Click Choose scene. If you pick 1440p or 4K, the scene streams at 1080p, the scene maximum.
3

Build it in the studio

The studio opens on your new show. See Build a scene.
To turn an existing loop into a scene loop, stop it, open its Scene tab, and click Design a scene. To go back to a video loop, stop the loop and choose Remove scene.

​
Pricing

A scene loop pays the normal streaming rate plus a scene rendering charge. During the beta, scene rendering costs 30% less than the launch price. At the default beta price, a 1080p 30fps scene loop costs $20 for 30 days. See Billing.
