| With Corona alone, Facebook allows direct distribution to more users |
Facebook said: Due to the self-induced isolation of the virus (COVID-19), many people are encouraged to use social media and aim to introduce certain features in the coming weeks to facilitate real-time broadcasting by more people.
Facebook, which has the largest social network in the world, said the new functionality is aimed at users who do not have enough mobile data and will be available to users around the world.
The company says it will support real-time audio streaming as well as automatic translation. Another important benefit is support for watching live broadcasts outside of Facebook, as those who want to watch live broadcasts don't need to connect to the network or even have an account there. In addition to supporting public telephone networks, public broadcast networks allow direct broadcast owners to create free phone numbers that viewers can call during live audio.
Facebook also introduced other features to broadcasters, including extending the 'star' feature to musicians and cultural institutions that allow creators to make money from shows. Note that this feature was previously only available to players.
Facebook says it will provide mobile phone accessories to its partners, especially educational and religious institutions, to enable live broadcasting. It also starts the Live Producer function for more professional parameters that require camera communication and programming. She said: This feature makes it easy to manage live shows and includes tools like censored comments and storytelling.
