# Video-on-demand

### Description

After your live stream event has concluded, you can make the recorded video available to viewers as a video-on-demand (VOD) using the same event URL and embed codes.

This allows viewers to access the recorded event content on-demand, even after the live stream has ended.

### Prerequisites

**Event Editor Rights:** You must have atleast Event [Editor](/v1/docs/roles-and-permissions) permissions to enable the video-on-demand (VOD) option or download your event recording.

**VideoManager Pro Account:** You must have [access](/v1/docs/connection-to-videomanager-pro) to a VideoManager Pro account to select the VOD video.

### Steps

1. In the [event list](/v1/docs/list-of-events), click on an event that has already ended:

1. Total streaming time
2. Total viewers
3. Viewers at peak
4. Download reports
