Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Since you (the Resonite Team) are currently testing out different platforms to allow your streams for your userbase to engage with, I hear from time to time from different team members that you are either testing things out or may not have the best platform of choice to allow more users to engage with you during those streams.
I asked a question in the Moderation Office Hours if they see a future for Office Hours to be streamed directly through Resonite (either by a dash tab or special feature you may design). This could solve a few issues that you all may be having (such as not everyone having access to the selected platform (Discord vs Twitch), or not collecting the questions as needed or effectively, needing greater control over the features with streaming).
Canadian Git and Veer both recommended me to make a feature request about it, so I am writing it here.
Describe the solution you'd like
There can be several ways you can go about it, but probably the most elegant way would be through the dash as a separate tab, when selecting it, it will take you to the stream section where you can watch the Office Hours stream live or (potentially) access previous streams/vods if a user misses a stream so they can catch up on what they missed.
Some alternative solutions could be a dedicated video player or stream player that can access the Office Hours stream live or have an extra panel that replay older streams/vods.
(Potentially many more, depending on how the engineering team decides to handle it)
Describe alternatives you've considered
Using the current setup (using either Discord or Twitch) to show the stream, but you would be stuck with the "Why do I need to sign up for yet another platform" pain point problem (and we don't want another: https://github.com/Yellow-Dog-Man/Resonite-Issues/issues/1899).
Additional Context
This may also have to wait because of the help tab feature (https://github.com/Yellow-Dog-Man/Resonite-Issues/issues/1123), or may become a separate additional tab within the dash (engineering team's choice).
Either way, having a place to go and find the streams, and being able to respond in the Resonite platform would (in my opinion) be the best way to take part in those streams.
