Hello. I'm currently having an issue creating a scheduled livestream in Vmix.

When I try to stream to a page that I have access too (and that I've given permission for), I receive the following error.

(#3) Application does not have the capability to make this API call.

I've never had this issue in the past. I've livestreamed consistently for the last year and have only now come across this issue. Looking into the issue on Google only shows results relating to Facebook Ads and nothing about livestreams.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Same issue! We have two streams today that need to go to Facebook and we cannot post directly from VMIX for them.

Have you tried using the custom rtmp and copy/paste the stream details from FB into vMix.

It looks like custom RTMP via Facebook Producer will work - I see the preview and waiting to go live in 20. Maybe just an issue with scheduling a video post then?

UPDATE: Was able to stream successfully via custom RTMP and able to schedule a further video post for tonight. The scheduled stream can be seen in the Stream tab in vmix.

Hi All,

This is a bug on Facebook's side. They are aware of the issue and currently investigating.
They have provided no ETA on when this will be resolved.

Note this is currently impacting any software that allows scheduled streams to Facebook, but
the manual stream method via Facebook's own site still appears to be working.

Also, streaming without specifying a scheduled time will still work as normal.

Regards,

Martin

I am still having issues. I am trying to schedule a stream in VMIX, and it is saying (#3) Application does not have the capability to make this API call.

Any update on this?

Unfortunately Facebook have just confirmed to us that scheduled streams have been discontinued.
They are encouraging people to use Live Online Events (LOE) instead.

A quick guide on how to set these up is below:
