Anyone here having problems with Facebook Live Streaming? I suddenly can't connect using my stream key.

I already tried generating fresh stream key and used default Server URL, but still with no luck.

Good thing its not only me... I am in Norway, is this world wide?
I'm from Philippines, so I guess it might be world wide. But the thing is, I can still see other streamers "live". Mine got disconnected from OBS and then never had a chance to reconnect.

Ditto to the above....same issue. I’m quite new to the platforms and had several streams work a couple of times with the most basic of streams through FB live. I’ve since then built several scenes and all seems well until I press go live on FB. Then I get about a minute in before it cuts out saying key failure to connect (or something similar). In FB have tried refresh the key, reset copy and paste a new key into OBS, tried using a persistent key.... nothing works over a minute or so. I’m also using the new FB Producer interface and was wondering if it may be a bug. At first I did think it may have been from FB (it still might be) as I’m a DJ and trying a few different mixing styles so I don’t get busted for copyright
In the end I pissed off the bells and whistles and went back to simple running FB lives from my IPhone with audio connected through a TRS-TRRS adapter....but no cool overlays or scenes to make me stand out from the noise.

I haven’t tried streaming to twitch or YouTube yet so hopefully I don’t get the same issue with them....unfortunately it’s pretty hard to ask my audience to click on a link to either platform and take them away from facies
