So, I had arrived in Clearwater, FL, for the Southeastern League National qualifier, ready to stream games to YouTube using my trusty Mevo Plus, when I get this message...
"Effective 12/01/2020. YouTube will enforce the 1000 subscriber requirement for users using the built-in YouTube option in the Mevo app, you can read about this requirement here. If you do not meet this requirement you can still go live to YouTube via RTMP."
WHAT THE F#$@!?!?!?!?!? I had not streamed games since before Thanksgiving, so I was caught totally off guard....
Fortunately, I already had a Twitch account set-up, and I was able to redirect the stream there... but it caused mass confusion with the viewers who have been watching YouTube reliably for almost a year... Try explaining to your 76 year old mother what "Twitch.tv" is....
I will look into the RTMP streaming, but didn't have time to figure that out during the tournament.
