YouTube live operators
Keep a channel on air around the clock with a real week schedule, not a single looped VOD hope.
For streamers & channel owners
Your content. On a schedule. Live 24/7.
Hustle TV is the desktop control room for streamers and channel owners who want linear television — not another endless playlist hack.
Built for
People who already have an audience — and a library
Multi-platform streamers
Encode once. Push the same broadcast to Twitch, X, Rumble, Kick, or partner RTMP — without juggling five OBS scenes.
Niche channel owners
Music, gaming, retro, community, family — build a curated channel people leave on, the way TV used to work.
Why operators join
Channel syndication is the growth lever
Encode once. Fan the same linear channel to YouTube, Twitch, Rumble, Kick, and partner RTMP — with hours delivered you can prove. Partners get a clean feed; you keep the schedule and the brand.
One encode
Many destinations
Partner hours
Proof for deals
Live health
Per-target status
Syndication
Partners get the feed. You keep the channel.
Add partner RTMP targets, watch hours delivered climb while you stay on air, and open Insights when you need the roll-up for a deal or a postmortem.
- Partner targets with enable / disable and live health
- Hours delivered tracked per destination
- Insights roll-up across Twitch, Rumble, Kick, and partners
The problem
Playlists and OBS scenes are not a channel
If you have tried to fake linear TV with a looped playlist or a fragile overnight OBS setup, you already know where it breaks.
Playlists are not television
A YouTube playlist does not give you ads, next-up continuity, closing screens, or a week you can actually run.
OBS was not built for days-long air
Manual scene switching and fragile scripts break at 3am. Broadcasters need a schedule that runs itself.
Reach dies in one destination
Your audience is split across platforms. One encode should fan out — with per-target health you can see.
What you get
A control room for a linear channel
Vault → week → destinations → live. Continuity and closing screens are part of the schedule, not a scramble at go-live.
Guide
A real TV guide for your channel — now line, primetime, the grammar everyone already reads.
Rotation
Rotation slots: schedule a collection, not a file.
Publish
Publish your week as an image, a text listing, or XMLTV.
Engine check
Built-in dependency check — know your engine is ready before you go live.
Schedule
A real week, snapped together
Drop programmes onto a weekly timeline. They snap. Gaps fill with continuity. You see the channel before it goes live.
- Week grid built for operators, not slideshow decks
- Ad windows, countdowns, and next-up cards auto-place
- Reorder freely — the polish recalculates with you
- Rotation slots: schedule a collection, not a file.
Vault
A library you can actually run from
Thumbnails, runtime, originating channel, descriptions, collections — so you stop guessing which file is which at 2am.
- YouTube playlists and local files into one vault
- Collections and sub-collections for real curation
- Live download progress across the app
Control Room
Go live with eyes open
Pre-flight, rundown, and per-target health — so you know what is airing and where the feed is actually connected.
- YouTube Live connection flow built in
- Live / reconnecting / off per stream target
- Hours delivered for partners you syndicate to
- Built-in dependency check — know your engine is ready before you go live.

Primary path — OAuth, go live, stay on.

Another destination, same broadcast.
Kick / custom
Any RTMP ingest you control.
Partners
Syndication targets with hours delivered.
Why it sells
Benefits operators feel on air
Broadcast polish without a truck
Next-up cards, closing screens, and transitions are part of the schedule — not a last-minute OBS overlay scramble.
One encode, many destinations
Fan out with FFmpeg tee. A failing target does not take the whole channel down.
Built for people who ship content
Operators get dense, honest controls. Prospects get a clear path: vault → week → live.
