Your Guests Experience On Melon

Inviting Guests - Please ask your guests to copy & paste the URL you sent into a new browser window. (Google Chrome preferred) If they click/tap the link via mobile or through any messenger service, they may not be able to join successfully.

Record/Local Record - When guests wish to end their live stream, they must press the Leave button. Their studio will display a notification that Melon is Finishing up recording... They must wait until they receive a 'Recording Complete' notification in order for a download to be available.

Local recording - If you have this recording option enabled, your guest(s) must accept your invitation through a desktop/laptop computer. Mobile devices are not supported.

Screen sharing - If your guests wish to screen share during your broadcast, please ask them to set up their browser settings to allow screen recording beforehand. (Mac users only)

Things To Keep In Mind

  • We're all guilty of having many browser tabs open that we end up not using during a live stream. To avoid video performance issues and to make sure your CPU is not taxed, please close all browser tabs before pressing Go Live.
  • Melon is web-based, and we will rely heavily on your network connection. If you use VPN extensions, please disable them before you choose to go live.
  • Hosts must press End Stream whereas Guests must press Leave to ping our servers to recognize the stream has ended.
