How can I stream into a Facebook Event I created on my business page?

I can stream into Facebook just fine on my personal profile, business page, and groups that I manage.

However, I can't stream into an Event on my Business page.

From the drop-down of places to stream into, all of the above locations are listed. Plus, there are several groups that I don't manage and lots of Events that I attended in the past (like years ago), and were not created by me. But none of my currently scheduled Events are listed.

Suggestions?

Tried to create a new event and then set up a Facebook Live stream in the Streamer. No go. The Streamer listed all of my existing Pages, Groups and Events, but not the new event. I even re-logged into Facebook in the Streamer, but that did not help.

So... not sure if the vMix Streamer / Facebook Live function was designed to do Events. Anyone know?

Once event has been created on Facebook

1) Close stream setting Dialog
2) You have to select as going to event on Facebook
3) Re-open stream setting Dialog
4) Event will appear

Worked for me...

Desmar, where do you select as going to event on Facebook?
I think that 2nd step is the one we're all missing.

Go to the Facebook page that is hosting event,
and on event at the bottom right corner, you
have 3 options, Interested, Going and Not Going.

Select going..
