Hi there,

I’m not having any success trying to log into YouTube to try some live streaming.

Obviously I am connected to the Internet and the aircraft but when I go into the upper right three dot menu and Choose Live Streaming Platform and select YouTube the only option I am presented with is a blue button Basic Mode.

When I press Basic Mode I am immediately presented with a warning that says; .‘Sign in Failed. Please retry.’

So I hit OK, hit the blue Sign In button on the lower right and am taken to a 403 error: disallowed_useragent which I believe is an OAuth issue.

It also states; ‘Google cant sign you in safely inside this app. You can use Google sign-in by visiting this apps website in a browser like Safari or Chrome’

How on earth to I get to sign in on this Smart Controller please?

I have already enabled Live Streaming on Google.

<confused>

Thanks & kind regards,

While the drone is grounded, have you opened up the browser app and sign in that way?

Yup!

When I visit YouTube or Google using the Lightning browser on the Smart Controller I’m already signed into both!

Hi, we're sorry to know about the situation and we do apologize for the incovenience. Currently, you may try to install a third-party browser on the DJI Smart Controller, select the YouTube live streaming platform, and choose the third-party browser when the DJI Smart Controller indicates that the system is jumping to another app. And this issue will be optimized in the firmware update.

Thanks for the reply DJIT.

I just saw an update for the Smart Controller to .0360 but that only fixed the SD Card mounting issue.

There is no way I'm going to install a 3rd party anything so I'll wait for an official DJI fix thank you very much!

Thanks & kind regards,

I have ended up side loading google chrome onto the smart controller. As suggested uncovered, I was able to get further into the process and it logged into my YouTube account without a problem (after selecting chrome as the default)
But after logging in and giving approval for all to go ahread I get the following screen, and no matter how long I wait, it goes no further. Tried multiple times. Confirmed good string internet connection

We got our replacement smart controller yesterday after our first unit got stuck on the start up screen.

We tried to updste the firmware to the latest version, it failed 4 times, it actually got stuck at 99% each time.

All of this was using the WiFi on the remote.

Then on the fifth try it completed the firmware update.

We do still have the issue that the histogram does not work however .

That's the main reason that I never sent my Smart Controller in to DJI when they gave me an RMA number!

Well that and the fact that as I bought it as a bundle with the M2P means that while it is away I can't fly!

Why DJI can't do what other companies do and charge your credit card when they ship a replacement and credit when they receive the old Smart Controller back I'll never know.

Well personally we are happy we got a brand new package and not a second hand repaired remote!

They might take some time to sort these type of issues out, but we are happy we are flying again.

As said on the other thread, we are keeping a close eye on the internal system memory, and will not be installing any new apps for fear of getting stuck again.

PLEASE DJI FIX THIS! I cannot stream live from my smart controller. I am starting to feel bamboozled for paying so much money and cant live stream, and all my files are always dated Jan 2013 everytime I reboot the controller. Horrible experience.

DJI.................Where is the fix for the youtube live stream with the smart controller?! This is a horrible experience to penalize your loyal customers by lying that youre going to fix something in your firmware release, then nothing happens. How difficult is this going to be to get fixed? I want to livestream my flights like I did with all my other drones, now I spend over $1500 and can't live stream. Please respond.

It's YouTube who changed the rules (and Facebook) after the recent incident in New Zealand.

Probably beyond the control of DJI so you might want to take it up with YouTube YouTube Support

You might want to look at the date I posted my original message which was on 26th January.

I believe the New Zealand incident took place 15th March.

My apologies for not checking your original posting date

However, what I said applies for more recent live streaming activities for many social media platforms.

I am in Australia so only get the local news as our government is getting a bit antsy and threatening $$$ billion fines and jail terms for online streaming of criminal activities Australia Live Streaming Rules

As I said, this problem might go above DJI's pay level

Experiencing the exact same problem as the original poster. The expensive DJI controller streaming feature does not work and was likely shipped as non-working, and is still not fixed after many reports and many months.

Hello DJI Tony,

It’s now 15 months since you said this would be optimised in a firmware update.

Well by my reckoning there have been four SmartController updates since your post and yet here I am still with an issue that has plagued me ever since I first purchased my drone still not resolved.

Just what does it take to get things sorted around here?

Thanks & kind regards,
