Most of us have experienced this at some point while live streaming. You start your encoder, select the destinations where you want to go live, and then hit the "go live" button, only to realize you've accidentally started streaming to a destination you didn't mean to. No worries! You can simply use the "Undo Go Live" button. The 5-second buffer allows you to stop the Go Live process before entering the next phase.
When you press the Go Live button on your Switchboard Workflow, your selected destinations will move through the phases before your live video is published.
