Quest 2's "Go LIVE To YouTube" Feature Not Working

ThatOneFlame

So recently I've seen that in the Camera, there's now an option to go live on YouTube and see your chat while you stream. I've tried to use this feature, but every time I do it always says "something went wrong". (for the record I use OBS studio and stream the oculus.com/casting window.

WHAT I'VE TRIED:

- Going live on OBS then casting
- Starting a scheduled live

If someone could please tell me what I'm doing wrong I would appreciate any help.

Hello @ThatOneFlame! Thank you for reaching out to us with this matter. We understand how important it is for our device to work to their full capacity, and we would like to get this resolved for you. If you haven't yet, tried the option of making your live session Public as stated by @ToXXuS.inside? With Meta Quest, you can livestream from your headset to YouTube and see your YouTube live chats while fully immersed in VR. This feature requires casting from your headset to a desktop and using a stream companion desktop software such as OBS (Open Broadcasting Software) in order to livestream to YouTube. Keep in mind, this feature is available for public livestreams only and will not work for private or unlisted streams. For more information please take the time and visit our public article HERE. We hope this information was of help to you. Have a legendary rest of your day!

Im having the same issue when clicking go live on the quest 3 it shows something went wrong with the monkey below it and does not allow me to see chat. Looking online there are countless others having this issue. Is there an ETA on a fix? The streaming feature is the whole reason I bought this device since my streaming pc is needing repairs and with this being my business it is costing me my only source of income since your product is not working as advertised. Really needing an update on this issue if possible.

You need to follow a specific order of events to make it work.

I believe you need to get the stream running and set to public prior to clicking the "cast to pc+youtube" button.

I'll double check tonight and see if I can throw together a how to video.

Who put time on 3x speed?!?
