Hi Tim Gales: if the Features tab of your YouTube channel says that you need to link an AdSense account to embed live streams, that is what you need to do.
To link AdSense to your channel, it has to be eligible for the YouTube Partner Program. That is at least 1000 subscribers and at least 4000 hours watch time in the past year.
Older channels were able to enable live stream embedding without linking AdSense, but that changed a while back.

Simply load your Encoder with the RTMP from your Restream.io account... livestream to your WEBSITE, Facebook page, Periscope, InstaGram, .... and even your YouTube page. Restream.IO provides a widget that you embed on your website.
You don't need to continually be discriminated against and harrassed by YouTube with their 1000 subscribers, 4000 View Hours, AND an active AdSense account for new accounts. (which is nearly impossible to get activated now unless you follow THE YOUTUBE RULES.)
More and more audiences are migrating away from the corrupt YouTube. Hit all the platforms you need to be on to expand your audience!
No more YouTube censorship! Thank you Restream.IO

George Westlund: is the video a livestream? And do you have livestream embedding enabled for your channel? You can check here: https://www.youtube.com/features?nv=1

Google Ads let you, the advertiser, pay for your ads to appear on other people's websites or YouTube channels. You pay Google.
AdSense, lets you, the publisher, monetize your content by running ads. Most of those ads are paid for by advertisers who placed ads via Google Ads. Google pays you.
So, what is required is that AdSense be linked to your YouTube channel.
Currently the only way you can connect an AdSense account is when your channel becomes eligible for the YouTube Partner Program. That requires at least 1000 subscribers, and at least 4000 hours watch time in the previous year.
You can check your channel's monetization status at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-OqjFf-9hkaa1OjGzm_OZQ

George: I totally understand that. Unfortunately YouTube doesn't offer any other option for live stream embedding.
If it's having something clickable, maybe you could use a static image on your site that opens YouTube when clicked.

i.e. you cannot PRE generate the embed code. But if you start your stream 20 minutes early with a holding slide, then generate the embed code from the live video on the channel page, then embed the video, problem appears to be solved for me.

We are helping educationists / temples to create their content and share the same with their students and devotees, the people are not very technology friendly we have to help them with everything, when we go live and embed something we are able to do from our account when teachers try to embed live video from their account they are not able to do the same, need help on the same ASAP. They will not be able to reach the limit of 1000 subscribers and 4000 hours. How to enable embedding or any workaround.
