Squeezebacks for Live Content

We’re excited to introduce Squeezebacks, a new way to control your live video layout by resizing and repositioning the main program feed. This gives you the flexibility to display additional on-screen elements such as graphics, promos, or informational content - without interrupting the live stream.

With the new Effects API, you can instantly switch between fullscreen and squeezeback layouts using either precise coordinates or a simplified preset (L-Bar). Optional transitions provide smooth visual changes when adjusting layouts.

What you can do with Squeezebacks

• Shrink and reposition the main video feed to a defined region of the screen.
• Use pixel-based or layout-based controls.
• Set optional backgrounds behind the squeezed video.
• Instantly return to fullscreen at any time.
• Apply optional transitions, such as fade or move.
