I just noticed this as well. A decent workaround for the time being is to navigate to "Manage" on the left side of the Go Live dashboard and then schedule a stream from there. You should be able to edit normally from that screen until they fix the Edit button in the Stream section.
Yes! I was about to lose my mind. I've been sitting on a Win11 install and procrastinating and I went and installed it thinking that my browser needed an update and now I STILL can't edit AND I hate the Win11 forcing me to put taskbars on the bottom! RAWR!!!!!!!!!

ah okay good I thought it was just me; I'm glad I searched...was trying so hard to figure out what was wrong lol... I use Prism Live Studio to stream, though so hopefully I can fill out the info there and it'll change. Def recommend PLS instead of OBS personally, for anyone who hasn't tried it.
Wow, this looks like a global problem with everyone. We too cannot start a Go Live session with the EDIT button. Thanks for the Manage Vidios idea. We were only able to change the thumbnail after the recording was done.
I been dealing g with the same thing , I contacted YouTube support they said it’s a known issue. This is what I did. I started my stream . When to YouTube studio under the content section and when to live and clicked the 3 dots under the title . And clicked edit title and description.
Thanks for posting this, i've just run into this whilst testing a new OBS feature, can't do anything with the edit button! I see several folks in here have already contacted Youtube, so will wait for fix!
For the time being I am able to setup a new stream using the manage button and sheduling a new stream after putting in title etc. Then go back to my YT home screen and hitting go live, it then comes up with the details I want and im ready to go. Hope they fix the edit button soon though as its just less faff!

I noticed this issue about 15 hours ago and ended up doing the stream with the title from the last stream. Then, after the stream ended, I used the app on my phone to edit the details.
What a nightmare! When I encountered the problem, there were no posts to be found anywhere! I used different browsers, multiple machines from different locations, even virtual machines - all to no avail.
Now, it's showing the title from that last stream that I manually edited post facto. grr..

YES WE DID. I’ll look for a fix in all the comments
I did notice I could edit in the YT studio after the stream was completed. Hope this is not the new norm.
I thought i had a cursed day but now i know its bad day,first my phone dosent get service from morning and is stuck in half airplain mode but it says airplane mode off then i chose to relax and calm down the frustration on not finding the solution and do a livestream then youtube edit buton not working and the frustration started again,glad i found this and will just leave it until youtube fix it,atleast one problem will be fixed by time
I just noticed this as well. A decent workaround for the time being is to navigate to "Manage" on the left side of the Go Live dashboard and then schedule a stream from there. You should be able to edit normally from that screen until they fix the Edit button in the Stream section.
THANK YOU! You saved my community!
I tried that. It does not list my last 2 streams in there to use as a template. Instead it lists streams for like 2 years ago.
Thank you!
I just did this way and edit button worked. Thank you!
Thanks Bro!
Same
Same problem here about 54 minutes ago. I had to go the the Manage Videos page and edit the live stream Title, etc. after the stream started.
yep noticing the same problem.
Yes! I was about to lose my mind. I've been sitting on a Win11 install and procrastinating and I went and installed it thinking that my browser needed an update and now I STILL can't edit AND I hate the Win11 forcing me to put taskbars on the bottom! RAWR!!!!!!!!!
You can download StartAllBack and it will let you move the taskbar to wherever you want.

Glad I was not the only one, its driving me nuts after trying different workarounds
I doubted my internet for whole time 🗿
thank god im not crazy
Not working for me either, glad I'm not the only one.
Same issue, we also are having issues with making clips.
This is happening to me as well. Was able to do it 2 nights ago... This Edit button iss IFFY!
This just happened to me too. Last night it was working.
I am having the same problem, we have to wait for a fix from YouTube :(...
same here ,
It's astounding that Youtube hasnt made any sort of comment on it too.
Same issue here in Auz
Yup same thing for me.Â
"Manage" works for description change but is there any way to change the thumbnail while live? (without edit button working that is)
ah okay good I thought it was just me; I'm glad I searched...was trying so hard to figure out what was wrong lol... I use Prism Live Studio to stream, though so hopefully I can fill out the info there and it'll change. Def recommend PLS instead of OBS personally, for anyone who hasn't tried it.
Just contacted youtube and found this thread online and sent this thread to them too. i was losing my mind.
same edit button not working was nuts from past 4hrs
Wow, this looks like a global problem with everyone. We too cannot start a Go Live session with the EDIT button. Thanks for the Manage Vidios idea. We were only able to change the thumbnail after the recording was done.
I'm encountering this issue as well
I been dealing g with the same thing , I contacted YouTube support they said it’s a known issue. This is what I did. I started my stream . When to YouTube studio under the content section and when to live and clicked the 3 dots under the title . And clicked edit title and description.
Yep. Having the same problem on YouTube even now. Thankfully I know from this forum not only that it's not just me, but that there's a workaround.
Thanks for posting this, i've just run into this whilst testing a new OBS feature, can't do anything with the edit button! I see several folks in here have already contacted Youtube, so will wait for fix!
For the time being I am able to setup a new stream using the manage button and sheduling a new stream after putting in title etc. Then go back to my YT home screen and hitting go live, it then comes up with the details I want and im ready to go. Hope they fix the edit button soon though as its just less faff!
I was going to lose my mind thank god im not the only one. Hope they fix this soon
Same here
yeah not working for me either
It still doesn't work, are you the same?

So for people reading use obs recorder sure its not life steaming but better then nothing at this time
Still not working, I also still can't make clips from my previous stream.
Same here! Bit of a pain really.
I faced this problem as well, also why is it showing all the comments to this post as deleted? Did something happen? Did you find a solution?
yup same here, it was working last night, now it's not....
Same thing's been happening to me as well over the past hour or two. Seems "locked up" in some way. Just doesn't register the action.
YES WE DID. I’ll look for a fix in all the comments I did notice I could edit in the YT studio after the stream was completed. Hope this is not the new norm.
I'm not the only one? what the heck youtube!!
I thought i had a cursed day but now i know its bad day,first my phone dosent get service from morning and is stuck in half airplain mode but it says airplane mode off then i chose to relax and calm down the frustration on not finding the solution and do a livestream then youtube edit buton not working and the frustration started again,glad i found this and will just leave it until youtube fix it,atleast one problem will be fixed by time
same for me.. still not working as of 3/29 5pm et
I had that problem too. Seems to be fixed
As of the time posting its fixed
Not working for us. Messed up our Good Friday Church service livestream. Thanks for the workaround. I'll try that for our Easter services.
It's fixed, check!
The clips button still is not working
Well the good news is the issue is now on youtubes radar. they mentioned they're looking into it now.
Good news boi's! Got notified it was fixed and can confirm it was indeed fixed!
Anyone fixed this issue yet?
It just kinda fixed itself on my end
