Upload from the Control Panel

Upload the ZIP you packaged to the Eagle 3D Streaming Control Panel, then create a link that streams it. Nothing to install, and it works the same way for everyone on your team.

Before you begin

Upload it

  1. Sign in and press Add Application

    Open Streaming Apps in the sidebar and press Add Application — the button at the top right, or the card after your existing apps. Both open the same upload window.

    The Streaming Apps page of the Control Panel, with the Add Application card, first in the grid, highlighted
    Add Application.

  2. Choose your ZIP

    Press Browse, or drag the file in. Only .zip is accepted — anything else is rejected with an Invalid file type message rather than failing quietly later.

    The Add New App window: drag the ZIP onto it, or press browse (highlighted) to choose it
    Browse, or drag the file in.

  3. Name it and press Upload

    A thumbnail is optional, and so is a Version Description (up to 120 characters). So is Send upload status updates by email, which mails you when the application is ready instead of making you watch the page — worth switching on for a large build. An app name already in your account is refused, and so is an upload larger than your remaining storage.

    When the transfer finishes, the Control Panel says Your app is in the stream test queue: the platform is test-streaming the build before it is ready to play.

  4. Wait for it to be prepared

    An estimate appears in the Control Panel. The upload is only the first part: the platform then unpacks the build and gets it onto a machine, so the wait continues after the file has finished transferring.

Stream it

  1. Create a stream link

    Open the application and press Create New Stream Link. This link is what you send to other people — anyone who opens it gets the stream, with no account of their own.

  4. Press Play

    Browsers will not start audio and video on their own, so every stream waits for one click. This is a browser rule rather than a setting.
