The project is OBS live stream -> Instagram Live Stream, there's a PHP repository here: https://github.com/JRoy/InstagramLive-PHP which relies on this Instagram-API: https://github.com/mgp25/Instagram-API/. I thought it would be neat if I can do something similar but instead of PHP use TypeScript/Node or even Electron (I've never done Electron before).
Would anyone be interested in doing this project with me? The inspiration for this project is: I think it would be cool to be able to live stream your coding on Instagram live.

Hi Vladimir, cool project! Were you working on this before I even posted this thread? If I remember correctly, I think you showed a template of what your stream would look like right? That was a really nice feature! Looking forward to hearing more about your progress!
Vladimir, can you help me? Just used instafeed.me/rtmp/ After stream I pressed the button "Stop and save to IGTV" and got an error "Instagram failed to save your stream"... How to get my stream recording? there are no traces of stream in instagram. as if it weren’t at all :(
I was able to download and upload to IGTV, but it's messy. The main issues are
1) Don't close the browser tab before clicking on the MPD download link, or you'll loose it forever
2) With the MPD file, VLC is able to play it correctly, but when converting to a file, it looses the audio and drops the video quality
3) The best tool to convert the MPD file to an MP4 file correctly has been youtube-dl command line (brew install youtube-dl on mac). But, it needs an URL to an MPD file, it can't be local, so you need to upload it to a file directory that allows a direct link, e.g. gofile.io. Then type: $ youtube-dl -f bestvideo+bestaudio someurl/file.mpd
4) Instagram TV limits upload length to 15 minutes, so split your file in as many chunks of 14min58s as necessary with ffmpeg (brew install ffmpeg on mac), then type: $ ffmpeg -i file.mp4 -acodec copy -f segment -segment_time 898 -vcodec copy -reset_timestamps 1 -map 0 output%d.mp4
instafeed.me could simplify the process by at least providing a direct link to the file.mpd
Hi Vladimir, do you know if Instafeed.me violates IG's restriction with using private API? In other words, will IG block my account if I use Instafeed.me to upload pre-recorded videos as live?
Thank you for your reply, Vladimir. I really appreciate it. So, when would the private API issue be a problem on IG?
Are there any drawbacks regarding IG algorithm when using instafeed? What is the regulation regarding intellectual property on instafeed? Do they get any rights on our content? And is it standard practice to use Instafeed to simulate live, although it isn’t live? Sorry for all the questions! I am obviously very new to this.
Thank you!
Oi Pode me ajudar queira comprar o INSTAFEED mais nao sei tudo que ele possa fazer por mim.
exemplo queria fazer a live pelo obs e ter o recurso de convidar alguem pra live como e feito normalemnte o instafeed tem esse recurso? obg
Basta usar algum aplicativo de video conferencia, como o zoom, e redirecionar o audio do programa pra uma stream de audio do OBS. Eu deixei um computador sendo o host da meeting e rodando o OBS e ai todos os participantes entraram pelo zoom, inclusive eu, de um outro computador pra nao ter conflito de delay do audio. É legal que voce consegue controlar gallery view com todos os rostos ou speaker view, destacando quem ta falando.
@vladimir Sobolev ... Are you connected to this website development? instafeed.m and yellow duck seem to be the only services offering stream keys for IG. Do you have another option?
Hi Dan, you asked if exists another option for services offering stream keys for IG.
You can check out Promovgram service.
hi vlad
is the code open-source?
Where and How can I check & play around with it
I'm having a hard time with your service payment system in my country, I'm from Indonesia
Example Card payment or Online Payment to Acces your App
Is it still working Vladimir?

Hi Vladimir,
I tried to use your application but I can't get the stream key .... keep on processing but nothing happens. I have tried with several Instagram accounts. Do you have an answer?
Владимир, приветствую! Тестировал сервис instafeed.me, столкнулся с трудностями при рестриме видео с YouTube в Instagram - видео с некоторых каналов сервис дает транслировать, некоторые не находит.
На всех тестируемых каналах включено встраивание видео, также это не зависит от количества подписчиков на канале - сервис позволил сделать трансляцию с тестового канала YouTube с 3 подписчиками, но не дал с другого с 1000 подписчиков.
С чем это может быть связано?
este link instafeed.me/rtmp/ esta funcionando bien! pero no pienso pagar un dolar por un servicio que solo me facilita usar obs, una verdadera pena para tan buena idea... no soy el unico pensando de esa forma, vi en videos de youtube las quejas de otros experimentadores
Brother Vlad, John here, can you provide the OBS Instagram Live template here or via email?
I dont know about u guys, but I think, right the best software that im still use for Multi Streaming to Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, etc in the same time is just redduck.live ..
Its really good software that can Record, Get the MP4 file stored in our harddrive syncronously, and many more feature in it.. just take a look guys !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Vladimir. I've just used instafeed.me on OBS and it was great. Just one question: is it possible to add another user into the live feed as in Instagram App. I couldn't.
This is the situation I'm trying to achieve: Instagram Live interview with another user, sharing external videos or audios in that interview. Is that even possible? Thank you!
você é um genio!!....aqui no brasil ninguém sabe fazer isso!!!...me ajudou muito!
do you support api n
Hi Vlad, can I speak with you in whatsapp or telegram?
Wow I'm surprised people are still commenting on my thread. What has been developed so far?
Hi Vladimir, the Youtube lives are not appearing in the preview, only videos.
GREAT IDEA!
NOW, HOW CAN I MAKE IT WORK....
ANY TUTORIAL?
