Cannot go live on facebook through OBS "could not access the specified channel or stream key, please double check your stream key."

[Mumzel]

Hello,

Any suggestions? The stream works on the facebook browser through google chrome but not OBS. I've already done the following

1) Checked for the latest updates - no luck
2) Turned off Firewall - no luck
3) Tested different versions of OBS - same problem
4) Tested with and without RTMP link. - same problem
5) Restarted my computer - no luck
6) Reset the stream key many times - no luck

This is the error I get when I try to start my stream. I also get "Error: failed to connect to stream". I am able to multistream to youtube, twitch, kick & Trovo with no problems at all :-3

Is there something else I have missed???? Maybe there is some kind of setting I have missed to fill in?

don' t ignore the pinned post in this folder (link in my .sig) about asking for help/support with an issue

Are you using a multi-stream plugin, or service like restraeam.io?
Are you sure your OBS Studio encoding/streaming settings are correct for Facebook?
Personally, I use a Scheduled FB stream and do NOT use a persistent stream key (for security reasons).

Depending on the above, you might want to start with OBS Studio in portable mode... no plugins at all.. and simple test stream to Facebook (Admins only, public won't see it)
