The Location option of "post on a page you manage" in Stream Settings > Destination: Facebook > Facebook Settings has suddenly gone missing after years of it being present. The ommision happened suddenly TODAY (May 6, 2023) in 26.0.0.42, so I updated to 26.0.0.44, with no change.
Yes. I followed the vMix provided directions of going to my personal FB Settings > Settings & Privacy > Business Integrations > Active and REMOVED the vMix permission entry (only app there), then logged OUT of FB (web browser), ran vMix, Enter Stream Settings, selected preset 2 using the 'Facebook' Destination preset, clicked the Facebook Settings button, Logged back into FB (vMix Oauth web page) and granted FULL access to vMix (manage your business, create and manage content on your page, read content posted on the page, show list of pages you manage, and publish video to your timeline on your behalf). Back in vMix, the Stream settings showed that I was logged in (Facebook profile pix shown), but in the Location drop down, the page I manage is NOT SHOWN! 'Share on your timeline' is the ONLY option.
As I said, this just happened TODAY. The 'page you manage' option USED to be listed and I could select the only page I have and stream to it just fine last week and years prior. The ONLY thing that has changed is how Facebook now forces me to SWITCH to this new PAGE PROFILE added to my account in order to do administrative actions. This change happened MONTHS ago and it didn't affect vMix whatsoever. Now it apparently does, because I deleted the vMix business integration entry AGAIN, switched to my Page Profile, and redid the steps above, but this time the vMix Oauth web page said I had to switch back to my personal profile to continue. I did. The result was the same back in vMix Stream settings... NO 'post on a page you manage' in the Location dropdown.
I'm at a complete loss. There's ZERO CURRENT info on this searching Google and this forum.
I DO NOT WANT to have to use the 'Custom RTMP' destination preset, which I just successfully tested, because it adds too much complexity to my already stressed out volunteer streaming operators. I do NOT want to first go to this Facebook Live setup page, enter the post info there, go back to vMix to start the stream, go back to FB web to wait for stream to be recognized, then click the Go Live button, then back to vMix to continue operations. I just want the Facebook location preset to freakin' WORK like it used to.
I've also scoured through my personal FB account settings and my Page 'account' settings to see if the page was blocked, filtered, or some other permission that would prevent it from being accessed by vMix Oauth connector. Couldn't see/find a thing. SO, here I am in this forum asking... what the heck is going on?
