Has anyone used YouTube Live to stream live events regularly (either using vmix or any other software - even directly through YouTube Live)?
And if so has anyone experienced any issues (serious or otherwise) while doing so?

I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who live streams using YouTube Live whether they experienced issues or not, as I am considering switching from my current CDN to YouTube Live and need to know if there is any reason not to do so.
Many thanks in advance for any advice you may have.

I stream to YT and Facebook at the same time without issues. One thing I have notice though, when I end the stream on YT and FB at the same time, FB still thinks I'm live for about 2 minutes!
thanks 1 user thanked Simsyuk for this useful post.

What is the longest duration of your live streams and does it stream smoothly for the entire duration without any interruptions?
Also have you found a way of getting rid of the "More Videos" that appear when you stop your stream?
Thanks.

All our streams are 1hr 30mins and I don't get any issues. Once I've stopped the stream the pop up says 'More Videos' and I just close it. The only issue is when I stream to YT and FB at the same time, for some reason FB stays streaming for a further 2 minutes (I just go in an use the trim feature)!
