Using Pickcel’s Event Stream app, you can live stream any Zoom meeting across your screens.
You need a paid Zoom account, and live streaming must be enabled in your Zoom account settings. If it isn’t enabled yet, turn on custom live streaming in your Zoom account first.

Assign the app to a screen

Create a composition using a single zone layout so the stream plays full screen, add this app to it, and assign it to a screen using Quick Play or a schedule. Since you’re already live, the stream appears on screen as soon as it’s published.
Assigning the app before you go live also works, the screen just shows black until streaming starts.
