How to play RTSP and live streams in a split screen
Add one supported stream address per line or browse an Xtream channel list, then place live sources beside local video and reference material.
Quick answer
Choose the live-stream source, paste an HLS, M3U8, or RTSP URL, or sign in to an Xtream account and select a channel. Add each source to a layout region, then save the working addresses and workspace as bookmarks for faster reuse.
Step by step
Add one supported stream address per line or browse an Xtream channel list, then place live sources beside local video and reference material.
Add or browse the live source
Paste stream links one per line, or connect an Xtream account to browse and search available channels.
Place sources in the layout
Mix live streams with other streams, local clips, images, web pages, PDFs, or music in any preset or custom region.
Save and monitor
Keep frequently used sources in history or bookmarks and allow retry behavior to reconnect after temporary network failures.
Make it work better
Small choices make a clearer workspace.
Prefer stable networks
Several live sources compete for bandwidth and decoding resources; wired or strong Wi-Fi is usually more reliable.
Test sources individually first
Confirm each URL, credential, and codec works before opening the full multi-stream layout.
Respect access rights
Only open streams and channels you are authorized to view, and follow the provider’s terms and applicable law.
