YT stream key not accepted

hey Ben and the team, I shared this error I was getting earlier in February about YouTube not streaming. I kept getting several error messages about the stream even after generating new keys and all the things, it was incredibly frustrating.Not only that, I decided to just go ahead and record locally and then go live. It was a terrible stream. I mean, terrible. It was not consistent; it just looked really, really bad.I don't know what else to do or to say. I can share the video so you can see what it looks like.Unfortunately, because of this, my client doesn't want to use Haystream because it seems very unreliable. It simply doesn't work for us at all.

Okay, this should now be fixed. If you try and add a destination now and click the button to test it, it should now work without an error. If you see any further issues, though, do let me know.

So I went back and ran the homebrew install command in terminal to add ffmpeg to my system but I'm still receiving the same error message. 🤷🏽‍♀️
