How can I receive statistics for a particular live event?

To receive statistics on a particular live event, you need to add a live event in the live channel which you've chosen to stream through. Adding a live event is very important since it enables the countdown on your player, it displays additional information for your live event (title and description) and you receive statistics on views and video minute consumption for a particular live broadcast.

You can add a live event by opening your "control center" in your Lightcast.com account and clicking on the appropriate live channel. With the button "Add Live Event" you can easily create a live event with a start date, end date, title and description. These information will be displayed on your embedded live player together with a countdown, counting down to your next live event. By adding a live event, you will also receive statistics for this particular live stream.
