My application requires dynamic overlays (sports scoreboards) to be added to live streamed content. I would like to use .png or greenscreen video as the overlay source.

It looks like the Transcoder feature in Streaming Engine allows for dynamically generated overlays:

Is this capability present in Streaming Cloud, or is it necessary to use Streaming Engine?

Hi @Ben Jun, using the Wowza Streaming Cloud it is possible to add a logo on top of your stream, but it is not possible to add graphic overlays as you can add in your Wowza Streaming Engine using the Transcoder feature.
