## Discord & Forum

The primary community support channel for Orchestrators is Discord. Most active troubleshooting, pricing discussion, and operational knowledge lives there.

* **Discord** – [discord.gg/Livepeer](https://discord.gg/livepeer) – join `#orchestrating` for operator discussion
* **Forum** – [forum.livepeer.org/c/transcoders](https://forum.livepeer.org/c/transcoders/7) – archived threads and longer-form operator knowledge

For troubleshooting, check the [FAQ](/v2/Orchestrators/resources/faq) first.
