Question / Help URGENT - OBS Not Recognizing Stream Key

[VekksR]

Hi, All

Recently I've been wanting to stream again on OBS. Only when I type in my stream key (and I have the streaming service set to YouTube), I get a message saying that I'm not able to stream because my stream key is incorrect. It is. I've copied it from YouTube a BILLION times, and it has worked in the past. When I tried to stream using a custom server and having YouTube's like URL, it also doesn't work. What on earth can I do?

Get a new stream key...That's what I would do.

how do you do that?

Go to Youtube/Creator Studio/Live Streaming and you will see your stream key there.
Try that one and if it doesn't work then change it to another.

I tried to do that, I reset the key like 6 times. It still doesn't work.

The second option is to change YouTube ingest server in obs Stream settings. Then make new key and try again.

could it be that my fps is too high? I record in 60fps

OMG
I FOUND IT OUT
I copied my stream key when it was hidden, and because of that it wasn't actually copied into obs
I copied that stream key (revealed) into obs and it worked!! thank you for your help anyway!!
