Edit Stream
Here you are able to change some details on your stream, such as the stream name, mount name and DNS record.
Change Station

Encoder & Metadata Log
The Encoder and Metadata log shows you the information contained in the logs processed by SharpStream's servers that can assist in debugging or confidence checking. For example, ad triggers will pull through as metadata in the logs and can be of assistance in confidence checking your monetisation setup. In the event of a disruption, you can filter for "Warn" messages in the Encoder and Metadata log to assist with debugging.
