After filling in the details, click the Next button. The encoder setup screen is present.

Click on the "Blue Initialize" button for permission to use your system-attached camera. After approval, you will see your live camera feed replacing the black box section. Adjust your camera and click the blue "Go Live" button in the wizard. The blue Go Live button will turn red with the text "On-Line" in a few seconds. Your stream is live now.
