Turn playlist sources into a Twitch channel people can follow.
Permalive imports public and connected YouTube playlists, lets you remove videos that should not run, maps categories per source, and turns the reviewed queue into an always-on Twitch stream.
The queue designer is the product surface for turning YouTube playlists into an intentional live channel.
Attach public or connected YouTube playlists as ordered queue sources.
Remove individual videos without changing the original YouTube playlist.
Set Twitch categories at the playlist or video level so the channel title and category stay honest.
Review the final playback list after source ordering and exclusions are applied.
Can I stream a YouTube playlist live on Twitch?
Yes, when the videos are yours to stream and the queue is reviewed for rights, categories, weak segments, dead air, and destination setup. Permalive treats playlists as editable queue sources, not as a blind loop.
The playlist becomes a public schedule
The source playlist is only the input. The schedule is what viewers can inspect after the archive becomes a channel.
Not a raw playlist loop
The useful distinction is the operating job. Permalive is built around the streamer channel, not a general video platform category.
Not just Restream-style rebroadcasting from an encoder; the playlist is reviewed and structured first.
Not StreamYard-style live production; there is no need to keep a browser studio open.
Not Vimeo or Dacast video hosting; the output is a Twitch-first channel experience.
Not a Wowza operator project; the runtime is managed for the streamer workflow.
The launch path is concrete.
Each page maps to the same Permalive operating loop: shape the archive, make the channel understandable, and run it through managed playout.
Split sources by intent
Keep tutorials, VODs, highlights, and old series in separate playlists so the schedule makes sense.
Remove bad reruns
Cut videos with unclear rights, outdated announcements, long dead air, or categories that do not fit the channel.
Assign categories
Map playlist blocks to the Twitch category viewers expect during that block.
Launch the queue
Use the reviewed queue as the source of truth for managed 24/7 playout.
Keep planning from the same surface.
These related pages cover adjacent launch questions without thin posts or category filler.
Start with the queue. Launch after the plan is visible.
Create the queue free, inspect the schedule and readiness, then ask for a managed launch once the channel setup matches the content.
