Short answer

How do I add new streaming destinations to a live feed using AI?

Tell your AI to add a new target to your active Qencode stream. The agent uses the available tools to register new destinations without you needing to touch the encoder settings manually. You'll see your feed expand to new platforms immediately.

Where every stream lands.

Simulcast outcomes

Adding targets changes where your video goes in real time.

LIVE

Active expansion

The AI adds a new destination to your current broadcast. Your video starts hitting the new platform right away.

SYNC

Platform alignment

The agent ensures the new target matches your existing stream settings. This keeps your multi-platform delivery consistent.

LOG

Target confirmation

Your AI confirms the new destination is successfully registered. You get a clear status update on the new connection.

MANUAL

Human oversight

You decide which platforms are safe to add. The AI only executes the specific command you authorize.

The workflow

What your AI does when the command arrives.

The AI handles the technical handshake required to bridge your feed to a new platform.

  1. Identify the feed

    Your agent locates the specific active live stream you want to modify.

    add_simulcast_target

  2. Register destination

    The AI sends the necessary credentials and endpoint data to the encoder to create a new output.

    add_simulcast_target

  3. Verify connection

    The agent checks that the new target is ready to receive the incoming video data.

    add_simulcast_target

  4. Report status

    The AI tells you if the new destination is live or if there was a handshake error.

    add_simulcast_target

FAQ

How the task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI stop my current live stream?

    No. The current tools only allow you to add new destinations to an existing feed.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my video bitrate?

    No. The AI only manages the destination targets, not the core encoding settings.

  • 03

    Does adding a target require manual encoder access?

    No. Once the MCP is connected, your AI handles the target registration directly.

  • 04

    Can I add multiple platforms at once?

    Yes. You can give the AI a list of destinations to add to your active feed.

  • 05

    What happens if the new platform rejects the stream?

    The AI will report the failure to you based on the response from the encoder.
