Log in to the CSS console and enter Stream Management. Stream Management includes interrupting live streams and disabling live streams, as well as viewing Live Streams, Primary/Backup Streams, Stream History, Disabled Streams, and their detailed information. Here is a brief introduction and usage of these features:
Live Streams Management
Log in to the CSS console, then navigate to Stream Management > Live Streams, and perform operations according to your actual business needs.
Preview live stream
In the Live Streams list, you can select the domain and corresponding online stream you want to query. Click "Preview" on the right to view the real-time live streaming image.
View stream data

Caution：
After the interruption, the current live stream will stop publishing. You can resume the live stream by republishing with the same Stream Name.

Caution：
After disabling, the current live stream will stop publishing (republishing is not possible for the current Stream Name until it is re-enabled). You can manually resume it or it will be automatically enabled after 7 days by default.
Primary and backup stream management
The primary and backup stream feature refers to the system's ability to automatically merge and output two live streams with the same Stream ID. The primary stream's content is prioritized for playback. If there are issues with the primary stream's content, you can automatically or manually switch to the backup stream content to ensure the stability of the live image. The primary and backup streams can be enabled or disabled for optimal scheduling. When optimal scheduling is enabled, the system will dynamically evaluate the quality of each stream and select the highest-quality stream as the primary stream.
