New: Replace Thumbnails After Scheduling!
You can now upload and replace thumbnails even after scheduling a stream.
How to update thumbnails:
1. From Home: Click the options menu on a scheduled stream and select Update titles.
2. From Studio: Click the pencil icon next to the title, then click Update titles in the Edit Event modal.
Platform requirements:
• YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn support setting a thumbnail during scheduling.
• Only YouTube and Facebook support replacing thumbnails after scheduling.
• You can’t remove a thumbnail once it’s set — only replace it.
• LinkedIn requires thumbnail changes directly on their platform.
• To fully remove a thumbnail, unschedule the stream or wait until it ends, and ensure your channels are set to create new event posts.
Happy streaming! 🚀

Hello,
We just added an option to update titles for all your channels within each stream setup from the Home screen and also inside Studio.
This allows you to also upload and replace thumbnails for edited events.
Please note, that YouTube, Facebook, or LinkedIn only allow us to remove the thumbnail before the stream is scheduled or goes live.
Once the stream is scheduled, you can only replace the thumbnail, but removing is available only if you finish the stream or unschedule it and set channels to create new event posts.
Several small improvements are still planned, like updating the Stream details modal, that can be opened from the Edit Event modal/Update titles.

Update Stream Title, Thumbnail & Description for Events

When I schedule a stream, especially with LinkedIn activated, AND I subsequently update something like the Thumbnail, title, description, my guests who PAIR their own channels will see the OLD stuff and not what I had to update channel by channel myself (which in itself is a bummer). Il would be great to be able to update what is in Restream and not be force to go back to each channel to do a manual update.

Please add the ability to edit the Thumbnail when you edit an event already scheduled.
