YouTube has announced a new update for streamers, allowing eligible creators to transition a live stream from public to members-only without ending the broadcast. Using Live Control Room (LCR), creators can schedule the switch, select membership levels, and set a countdown timer. This enables exclusive content like Q&A sessions or behind-the-scenes access, while giving non-members a preview to encourage sign-ups. Analytics for both public and members-only segments are tracked separately. Vertical streams are not yet supported. Google-owned YouTube said, "This feature is available starting today to all monetizing creators who are eligible for channel memberships."
