You can edit the thumbnail image for the recordings of your lives. By default, the thumbnail image is usually a snippet of your broadcast, but now you can change it to any image you would like! This article explains how to do that.
Uploading Your Own Recording Thumbnail Image
- Go to the Library tab by clicking on "Library" at the top left.
- Next, click on the three dots for the recording and then select "Upload thumbnail" or "Change thumbnail" if you uploaded an image before.
- Locate and select an image on your device to use.
- Position and size the image.
- Click on "Apply" to finish the process.
The uploaded image will now be shown in the video library area of your account. It will also be the image people see when they go watch the recording via the share link. Learn how to share your recordings here.
FAQs
Are there recommended specifications for the image that should be used?
Yes. We recommend using an image that is 1280x720px and 20mb or less in file size. JPG or PNG file types work best as well!
Will the uploaded thumbnail show up in the link preview when I share the link to the recording?
Not at this time. The default StreamYard description and image will show in the link preview instead.
