Is streaming live tv on youtube different to streaming videos (which I have done in the past)?

Appears to be. You can stream direct link videos like ustream but the same cannot be said for you tube.

I didnt know youtube had "live" tv. i thought it was all stored video. I know how you could do either one, but not in a buzztouch plugin. I can tell you how to make a custom class in your app that will do that for you if you are interested? Allan

I believe YouTube only allows certain YouTubers to use the live feed and for specific things. So it's not available to the mass public yet. -tM

Nope, You Tube allows for live streaming, open to all. http://www.youtube.com/live/all

No idea, never tried. I'm needing to stream for a client but think its a no go when hosted on youtube, for BT apps anyways. @allandriggers - thanks for the offer - Would too be able to create a custom class but it needs to be done without an update as the stream is this weekend - thus needing an already included plugin :/

Maybe you should use something like twitch and stream via MobileSafari? -tM
