Before you can send video from #Wowza #ClearCaster™ to #Facebook #Live, you must register your #ClearCaster device with #Wowza and then associate (pair) it with the Facebook (or #Workplace by Facebook) account that you want to use for sharing your Facebook Live video streams.
Notes:
If you don't have a Facebook account to pair with your ClearCaster, create a Facebook account.
If your ClearCaster is already paired with a Facebook (or Workplace by Facebook) account, and you want to use a different Facebook account for sharing your Facebook Live stream, unpair your ClearCaster before following the steps in this article.
