Question / Help Play Media Only When Stream Is Live (FB)

I have a Media Source and would like to play it from the beginning as soon as the stream goes live on Facebook.
Is this possible?

At the moment, I have setup a scene before it which I need to quickly switch to the scene with the media source once Facebook goes live but thought it would be much better to somehow automate this process?

There is no such function to play a source as soon the stream is active.
Prepare a "starting soon" scene with a static image. Show this scene if you go live. Then your watchers tune in, since they got the announcement you're live now. After a minute or so, when everybody is ready to really start, change to your opening scene with your media source, which will start if you set the source to restart when becoming visible.

Showin some action immediately after physically starting the stream makes no sense, because not everybody is already connected to the stream. So the opening seconds are not available to everybody.
