Here are the minimum system requirements and supported devices for using Evercast and EBS.
Note
We recommend using the Evercast desktop app instead of a web browser, for more efficient bandwidth usage.
Hiding thumbnails can reduce your bandwidth load. Hiding your own video reduces your CPU usage.
For color requirements, please contact Evercast Support.
