Hi,

when I try to insert a live streaming URL from youtube https://www.youtube.com/c/CHANNEL_ID/live in a video embed element, I always get an error https://imgur.com/a/ASz5aJB, no matter if the streaming is going or is stopped.

Can you help me with that?
thank you

Hello,

I made a test and for me works well -> https://i.imgur.com/iFny19F.png -> https://i.imgur.com/qzSseCG.png
Please let me know how you set the Youtube link.

Thank you!

hi,

well, I added an element from tagdiv composer console https://imgur.com/a/WdJofnr using this kind of URL https://www.youtube.com/c/TheGoodLiferadio/live and not this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36YnV9STBqc.

anyway, there is a big difference: the URL with watch?v=36YnV9STBqc points to a specific video (live or on demand). if it is a live video, when the broadcast ends and a new one starts, that URL keep binding to the old stream and not to the current (live) video.

on the other hand this URL https://www.youtube.com/c/TheGoodLiferadio/live points to the live stream of a specific channel and works for whatever live stream the channel broadcasts.

so, what I’m asking here is for a workaround to make this URL https://www.youtube.com/c/CHANNEL_ID/live work on tagdiv newspaper theme.

thank you

Hello @alicestudio!

The Video Embed element will work in this case only with this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36YnV9STBqc
We will take in consideration your query for the future.

Thank you!
