Issue 1: This drove me crazy. I would start streaming and it would run for several hour/days and then stop. The problem was that the “embed code” (iframe statement) had changed from what I originally had posted to a new iframe statement. By pasting the new “iframe” statement into my webpage I could once again get the stream to stream. Frustrating!!!

Here is a permanent solution to this “iframe” issue.  I have made the following change to my webpage but it will take some time before I know if it works. The following procedure was gotten from the internet.

You can determine your [ChannelID] by going to https://www.youtube.com/account_advanced and copying the string after “YouTube Channel ID“.

The embed code would then be:

<iframe width="560" height="315" 
src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/live_stream?channel=CHANNEL_ID&autoplay=1"
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

You must have Live Stream Embeds enabled at www.youtube.com/features for the embedded live stream to play on your website.
