Play videos from your Wistia account directly in a Live event! With this feature, you can create a playlist of your Wistia videos for each Live event, and play those videos natively during a webinar.

Note

Only Hosts can add and/or interact with media during a Live Event.

To get started, navigate to the Event room and click the “Present” tab under the chat panel.

From here, you’ll be able to select videos from your Wistia account (or slides from your computer) to add to a playlist.

After selecting media, you can click "Add" anytime to add more media to present.

This playlist can be used at any point during your Live event.

Tip

Hosts can join the Event room at any time before the event to pre-populate this playlist with media.

To bring media on-stage, hover over it and click “Play on stage.” If it's a video, it will automatically begin playing.

When a video is playing, Hosts cannot bring Panelists onto the stage. The video can be removed at any time to bring Panelists back on stage.

Once the video is over, the Host can either choose another video to play on stage in its place, or remove the existing video from the stage.

  • Playing another video on stage will switch out the two videos, and begin playing the new video.

  • Removing the existing video from the stage will automatically revert the stage layout to its previous state.
