What are the Stream and Full Video URLs?

The Stream URL: The Stream URL is the address of the video stream alone. More specifically, it’s the address of the HLS playlist. This URL can be used in players that support live streams as well as in browsers (provided you have an HLS player addon). Stream Open offers dedicated buttons to handle this stream:

• The Stream button
  
  opens the stream in your default browser, specifically in the latest selected window, if you have more than one open. By selecting a window before clicking the Stream button, you can target that specific window for the stream.
• One of the two configurable player buttons
  
  will redirect the stream to the player of your choice, opening a new instance of that player.

For any other use you may have for the stream playlist URL, Stream Open makes it available with a copy button

that transfers the address to your clipboard. This feature is particularly useful if you’d like to test the stream in a player not configured in Stream Open or open it in a browser that is not your default browser.

Here’s what a direct stream playback might look like in a player or browser

The Full Video URL: The Full Video URL is the address of Chaturbate’s interactive player. Unlike the regular room view you get when clicking on a user card link, the Full Video URL opens Chaturbate’s interactive player, where the video player occupies the entire window’s real estate, along with all the interactive elements you need to log in, chat, tip, request a private show, etc.

Here's how the interactive player looks like in the browser:

This view is particularly useful when you want to monitor multiple rooms and set up your screen with multiple windows. The player resizes with the window, whether it’s maximized or docked, ensuring no manual adjustment is necessary.

Similar to the Stream button, the Full button opens this link in your default browser—again, in the latest selected window if you have more than one open. The Full Video URL is also available for you to copy.

This link can be especially useful if you want to copy and paste it into a browser that is not your default browser.
