# Jet-Stream (Virtual event)
## Set up an account
{% hint style="info" %}
To start a live stream a webcam, microphone and a Jet-Stream account are required. Make sure to have the most up-to-date browser, operating system, and a good internet connection (500+ Kbps).
{% endhint %}
To set up a live stream on a desktop an account has to be created on [Jet-Stream](https://jet-stream.com/). A Jet-Stream account is easier to set up than a YouTube account with an active AdSense account. Jet-Stream offers different account options and recommends a Webcast account for events.

**Note:** Setting up a Jet-Stream could take up to a day.
{% endhint %}
The pricing for a Webcast account is as follows:
| Streaming quality | Viewers per hour | Costs |
| --------------------- | ---------------- | ----- |
| SD 500Kbps quality | per 100 | €149 |
| HD 1Mbps quality | per 100 | €175 |
| Full HD 4Mbps quality | per 100 | €199 |
| 4K UHD quality | per 100 | €299 |
Choose the preferred quality, and select the number of broadcast hours and the number per 100 viewers. Calculate the required webcast budget. The more viewers and hours, the lower the price gets. We advise you to [contact](https://jet-stream.com/contact/) Jet-Stream if you need help setting up your account.
Before you can start live streaming you need to download encoding software to set up your live stream. We recommend downloading [Open Broadcaster Software](https://obsproject.com/). Useful information on how to use OBS can be found [here](https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Quickstart).
## Stream from a desktop or laptop
### Creating a stream
1. Login into Jet-Stream.
2. Click on 'Live streams'.
3\. Add a new RTSP/RTMP live stream.
4\. Select the user. \
5\. Under 'Protocol' select RTMP. \
6\. Enter a stream name.\
7\. Once everything is set click on 'Create Live Stream'.
8\. A pop-up with information will show. This information is needed to connect with the encoder.

| Secondary server | You could use this server instead if needed. |
| Username | Insert the username in the encoder. |
| Password | Insert the password in the encoder. |
9\. Connect the stream with the encoder. [This](https://knowledge-base.letsgetdigital.com/the-admin-panel/settings/virtual-event-settings-vp/live-stream-settings-vp/obs-studio-software/connecting-jet-stream-to-obs-vp) article explains how to connect the live stream when using OBS.
{% hint style="info" %}
It might take a minute for the encoder to connect with Jet-Stream. Refreshing the page might help.

Once everything is set up it should look like this.
## Insert the live stream in the Let's Get Digital environment
