Having issues streaming using ffmpeg, it was working last week

[theinvasionofsmallc]

Hi I’m using the following script that didn’t give any errors until last week:

#!/bin/bash

ffmpeg \
-hide_banner \
-loglevel trace \
-stats \
-channel_layout stereo \
-f pulse \
-i auto_null.monitor \
-thread_queue_size 1024 \
-f x11grab \
-draw_mouse 0 \
-s 1024x768 \
-framerate 30 \
-i ${DISPLAY} \
-c:v libx264 \
-r 23.976 \
-x264opts "keyint=48:min-keyint=48:no-scenecut" \
-preset ultrafast \
-tune zerolatency \
-pix_fmt yuv420p \
-s 1024x768 \
-threads 0 \
-f flv "rtmp://fra02.contribute.live-video.net/app/api_key"

And I’m getting the following error:

can you help me maybe?

Could be the Stream key is not valid
Or an existing process is still running locking the stream key from use

Hi, thanks,
the stream key is valid but I didn’t check if other processes were on. And that was the problem.
Never happened before and the error wasn’t really clear.

Thank you!
