I am trying to do a private stream on youtube with my friend but whenever I attempt to do this it randomly stops without an error message or anything what I don't understand is it worked totally fine when I streamed on twitch publicly I changed nothing and now it won't work what confuses me more is I was playing a much more demanding game Mafia III but I am trying to privately stream a casual game The Sims 4 if you need my PC specs or anything let me know.

You are on wifi and have a very bad wifi connection that will stall your connection to the streaming service. Connect your machine with LAN cable.

I don't have a LAN cable it was working fine before so I don't get it also I can't route a cable like that through my house

Well, you asked why your stream stops. Every single of the 28 streaming sessions in your log was stopped due to you stopping the session. By hotkey or by clicking on the button. The sessions were never aborted by themselves. In case the hotkey actions were not desired and you pressed the hotkey accidently, remove the hotkey or choose some hotkey you do not press accidently.
04:07:23.329: Stopping stream due to hotkey 04:07:24.581: [rtmp stream: 'simple_stream'] User stopped the stream 04:07:24.582: Output 'simple_stream': stopping

Interesting I thought my key was SHIFT + \ but it's SHIFT + / which means I was the one who stopped the stream possibly I am going to do a random test stream and see if it stops itself.

EDIT: yep it was the hotkey...apologies for my stupidity
