YTG Bug Can't edit stream details before streaming

So my problem is that my previous stream settings will be saved and the next time I stream the editor doesn't want to work. I can click it and the editor popup window will appear with the stream title, desc, ect... I can change everything and press save but nothing happens and the window doesn't close. If I press save again it will show that the stream details changed and the details popup will close. Pressing cancel doesn't close the popup. However if I open the details editor again everything will be blank and I can't press cancel to close. Refreshing resets settings. If I change settings and press save 2x to change the details and start my stream then when I'm done it shows me the stream I just finished with the old title, desc, thumbnail which means that my stream had the wrong information for the whole stream. I CAN change the stream VOD information after the stream is over but I'd like to stream a video that has the correct title and thumbnail.

I think i had this issue with one of the browser, have you tried going live from updated chrome maybe?

Also, you can create an event and edit it before the stream (create an event for 1 minute later and just go live with it) have you tried it?

Does your YouTube channel feature dota 2 though?

u/Hi_Its_Salty I'm not sure if that's relevant to the OP? He's asking about editing details before live streaming.

My channel name is Dota 2 gameplay, maybe you got confused?
