I am running beta as well but have not tried the live feature yet. I believe you must have a minimum subscriber base. Not quite sure though.

Live streaming works (the same way for any of the android AE versions 1.1.7.38/83/93). You can check the feature inside your home wi-fi with ffmpeg (no youtube account needed). Just install ffmpeg on a home computer and run command:

ffplay -fflags nobuffer -flags low_delay -framedrop -listen 1 -rtmp_live -1 -rtmp_buffer 250 -i rtmp://YOUR_COMPUTER_IP:1935/live/app

then fill the rtmp address in the AE Live settings:

rtmp://YOUR_COMPUTER_IP:1935/live/app

and press "

" button in the AE camera view.

Important note! You need reliable high-speed network connection on your smartphone/tablet otherwise latency will be too much. Ininially I'd got delays up to 24!!! seconds. The problem was the all hardware (Evo 2 V1, its RC, smartphone, home wi-fi) work in the same 2.4GHz band and they interfere with each other. After enabling the airplane mode on smartphone (Wi-Fi only) and connecting it to RC with a long microUSB <-> USB cable (to increase distance between them) the delay dropped to 1.5 .. 3 seconds.

I have also tried again...seems that is working only with local network but something is changed as YouTube Live is not working anymore...The stable version is working, Beta is NOT...
YouTube has not changed anything, as I also transmit with DJI and it seems that their app is OK with Youtube.

So...Autel...need a fix in Beta for this one too...
