Restreaming to Facebook: FAQ
Can I go live on Facebook and YouTube at the same time?
Yes. Add Facebook and YouTube as two destinations in your dashboard; both go live together from the one stream you send.
What are the best OBS settings for Facebook?
Resolution 1080p30 or 720p60, bitrate 4 to 6 Mbps, a 2-second keyframe interval and AAC, 128 kbps, 48 kHz audio. We never re-encode your video, so these settings reach Facebook exactly as you send them.

Live Producer → Streaming software → Stream key
How is traffic to Facebook counted?
Each gigabyte sent to Facebook uses one gigabyte of your plan. A 6 Mbps stream for one hour is about 2.7 GB.
