I ran into the same issue while trying to stream tonight. After about 10 minutes of being live, I would see the message pictured below appear.

This happened after updating to 31.0.1. I have never encountered this error before on any version of OBS, and my internet connection is the same as always. I have been streaming using OBS and the same Twitch channel regularly since April 2024. I have attached the logs from my streaming tonight.

If you reset your stream key in Twitch Settings then click show, does it show up blank? If it is, the problem is on Twitch's side.

If it's on Twitch's side, it may or may not fix itself in a matter of few hours or even a day, to my experience.

it didnt come out blank, ive reset it a couple times and it came out correctly, and i pasted it in there instead of using twitch acct connectivity and it still didnt work

so I just tried streaming to YouTube and did so successfully for over 3 hours at a time (havent streamed longer yet) but it worked on there, but Twitch still appears to have problems? it may be a bug with the new OBS update and Twitch? but im not sure, Twitch seemed to work weeks ago but this problem with it has been rlly recent and constantly reoccurring

so i still would like some help LOL!

Same exact thing is happening to me. Been through support with OBS and they said software is fine. Been through support with Twitch and they say its a connection issue on my end. I've reset stream keys, I've connected OBS to Twitch using the stream key method and the account method. I've tried different ingest points. Always the same result. Problem is I stream fine to Youtube and other platforms for hours with no issue. I can get disconnected from Twitch with that error message anywhere from 10 minutes to 1.5 hours into stream.

My first time encountering this error message was January 10th according to when I first asked my discord for assistance. Been happening every stream since. I was sick and not streaming for about 1 1/2 to 2 weeks in there but it happened yesterday. I streamed to YouTube today with no issues. I am on the latest OBS version, 31.0.1.

Problem could be the Coding of the program itself, is the Devs messed up somewhere in the code that they could miss and the compiler didn't catched on, i dont know alot of programing, but it my best explanation so far
