Before your livestream starts, you can show a trailer or poster image in the player, for example to get waiting participants in the mood for the stream. Participants who click on the link before the livestream starts will then see the trailer/image. This is visible from the time the livestream is created until the actual livestream starts. If you do not select a trailer, the Video.Taxi logo will be displayed before the stream starts.
You can use any video in your MEDIA as a trailer, so you can also upload a special video to serve as a trailer for a livestream. If you have a suitable trailer ready, select the right video via the tab under "Pre-Trailer" in step 4 of the livestream creation.
The selected video will now be played in a loop until the actual stream begins. If you would like to use an image instead of a video, you can upload it in the Cockpitplayer after setting up the livestream and it will be shown before the stream is starting.
