Question / Help "Failed to Connect to Server" after Facebook switched to rtmps

[LivingPharaoh]

Hi,
After switching to Linux Mint (basically, Ubuntu) I was getting "Failed to Connect to Server", and following instructions on a YouTube video I changed the port to 1935 (using Custom Server option) and it worked. A few weeks ago, Facebook switched from 'rtmp' to 'rtmps', and I can't get OBS to connect at all. I tried the "Facebook Live" preset and I played around with the custom address, no luck.
My best guess right now is that it's not OBS because nobody else seems to have this problem. I figure somebody here can point me in the right direction.
Thanks

Depends on how you have installed OBS. Basically OBS can be compiled with or without rtmps support.

Ooooh. Makes sense. I used the standard Ubuntu installation instructions (through the terminal). How can I go about reinstalling it with rtmps support?

If I'm not mistaken it depends whether CMake finds the libmbedtls development files. You probably need to install these on your system. Same for a lot of optional features. Read the CMake output carefully on what it finds and what not and consider if you need a certain feature or not..
