restream
Relay live content
To restream is to broadcast a live video stream simultaneously to multiple platforms, or to relay another person's stream to your own audience.
A gamer might restream to Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook at once.
Content creators restream popular events or collaborate by hosting each other's broadcasts: I'll restream the tournament on my channel.
