+Make sure to replace `<yourdomain>` by the domain you are willing to use for your instance (i.e example.com). You can now edit `yotter-config.json` and set `nginxVideoStream` to `true`.
 
 You will also need to change the `</path/to>` after `alias` to fit your system. You have to point to the Yotter folder, in this set up it would be `/home/ubuntu` as it is the location where we cloned the Yotter app. This alias is created to handle static files directly, without forwarding to the application.
