FAQ
OBS gives a "Failed to connect" error
This is mostly due to an invalid stream key: The stream key changes every time you start a new stream so it must be replaced in OBS every time.
I've stopped streaming but Instagram still shows me as live
This is due to you not running the "stop" command inside the script. You cannot just close the command window to make Instagram stop streaming, you must run the stop command in the script. If you do close the command window however, start it again and just run the stop command, this should stop Instagram from listing to live content.
I get an error inside of Instagram when archiving my story
This is usually due to archiving a stream that had no content (video). Just delete the archive and be go on with your day.
