The Live + Extension (Paid Option)

1. Activate the Live+ extension

Live + is a paid extension that you can activate in your Muse mBaaS project for an extra fee.

The extension must be purchased for each new Live + section you want to add to your app, meaning that each purchase of the Live + extension will add an extra Live + section to your app (= to add 2 Live + sections to your app, you need to purchase the extension twice, to add 3 Live + sections to your app, you need to purchase the extension 3 times, etc.).

You can try the Live + extension for free before you purchase it.

The free trial period of this add-on is 15 days. 

To start your trial: 

1. Go to the left swipe menu Extensions Store > All Extensions > Live +

2. Click "Test the option for free"

Please note that if you decide to end the trial and purchase the add-on before the 15 days are over, the trial won't be renewed.

2. Set your Live + streaming feed

The Live + section is a direct audio stream that displays additional information during audio playback.

Mandatory requirements:

A - The audio stream must be served over https 

B - You must set access to your server in order to retrieve the metadata:

Set a header Access-Control-Allow-Origin to *

Set a header Access-Control-Allow-Headers to Icy-MetaData

Set a header Access-Control-Expose-Headers to icy-meta into

Metadata properly set in your feed will allow Muse mBaaS to ask iTunes for the track’s title, the artist's name, the cover image, and a link to purchase the track. Available information will then be displayed in your app.

3. Set your Live + section

After purchasing or activating the trial for the Live + add-on:

1. In Design & Structure > Structure > Sections, select your Live + section

2. Add a title for your section

3. Fill in your feed URL*

4. Click "Add"

4. Schedule your stream

This is optional.

1. Turn on the "Schedule "on the air" time slot" option

2. Set the time for your section to go on air.

3. Turn on "Repeats" and use the drop-down menu to select a period.

5. Warning!

The Live+ page's meta-data is intended to be used for songs.
If your stream includes Talk Radio or Talk content the meta-data for this type of content may not generate correctly.
