What is the Live Status?
The live status allows you to find out more about the visibility of your live stream with your audience.
The live status will change depending on:
- The visibility set on your live
- The start and end date of your live event
- The data received on our servers from your encoder.

The status is shown in the top left corner of the live stream preview or beneath the Visibility toggle.

What are the different live statuses?
Your broadcast can be in one of the following states:
|
On air |
Your encoder is sending us data, and we are broadcasting the content on your Dailymotion player. Your live stream is active and visible by viewers. |
|---|---|
|
Off air |
We don't receive data from your encoder which prevent us to broadcast content. Your live stream is not currently active. |
|
Ready to air |
We're receiving data from your encoder, and the content is ready to be broadcasted on your Dailymotion player. This status is enabled if the Visiblity toggle is greyed out, or if a start date has been defined through the schedule next live feature. Your live stream is active, but viewers cannot see the broadcast unti |
|
Terminated |
The live stream has reached the end date specified in the Live Dashboard. Please note that even if you are sending data to our servers, we won't continue to broadcast your content as the live has reached the end date set up on the settings. You can remove the end date if you don't know when your live will end exactly. You can set a start date and end date for your live stream in the Schedule next live stream panel. |
