YouTube live broadcast broken?

[lammy8]

I've signed in and allowed the phone access, but it refuses to do a live broadcast. Anybody else having this issue?

I don't think the plain YT app does this, you need a third party app like Livestream or others. Maybe if you bring up the YT website with a browser it could work.

Its going to be in the YT Gaming app.

Download the YT Gaming app from the Play store. Then when it shows what app you want to stream from, choose "all apps" and scroll down to the "camera".

I just tested it and it works.

There's an option in the default camera app on the device. In the Modes section. Keeps looping back to requesting login, even though I've allowed access

I have the same problem doing that, tested it a few times.

See if using the YT Gaming app does what you want. It seems to work as long as you scroll all the way down to find the camera option.

To be honest it's not something I'd really ever use, but for it not to work out the box is a sham.

Is there anywhere we can log bugs to Samsung?

I got it to work. Start the app and it will ask you to sign in. Instead of signing in, press and hold the BACK arrow button at the bottom right of the phone. Then anytime it asks you to "sign in" or a message pops up, hold down the back arrow again.

Do you have good results with it? I can get into the camera function but it won't cast live, send out a tweet to alert followers nor appears in my YT vids after. Presumed broken.
