“We’re starting to roll out the ability for people to broadcast live on Facebook from their desktop or laptop”, a Facebook representative confirmed.
Facebook Live is arriving soon for desktops and laptops. The feature is still presently available for Android and iOS devices only. As the reports say Facebook is planning to roll out, some more features like scheduling, two-person broadcasting and MSQRD integration were commercially rolled out for users to use with Facebook Live.
Facebook’s Live Video further plans to say that this feature is a response to demand from journalists, vloggers, and do-it-yourselfers.
A video shared by the Search Engine Journal, showed a Facebook user named Delilah Taylor. who is believed to be the first to gain access to the feature, discovered a new link for the Live Video after she turned on her laptop.
It could be a webcam from a laptop or an external accessory. The user can now adjust the camera of the laptop or the peripheral camera of the desktop and the microphone.
Now, it seems the social media networking site is finally bringing the feature to desktops.
Facebook is definitely trying to evolve its game in the video category, and is trying real hard to compete with Google’s YouTube.
