Why did Go Live show a message instead of starting?
Short answer
Go Live checks your channel, your media and your plan before it starts. If something needs fixing, it explains what and how, and nothing starts until it’s ready.
What Go Live checks
- Your channel: that it’s still connected, and what the platform needs first (for example, a title and category on Kick).
- Your media: that every file in the playlist can be played on that platform.
- Your plan: that the stream fits your plan’s quality, hours and number of streams.
What to do
Follow the message: it says what to change and where. Once it’s fixed, press Go Live again. If a file needs preparing, see My file isn’t accepted. What now?
