Anyone else have a Live webinar load with Simulated Live controls but your Live settings still existed in the background and the 25 second AI generated tutorial video play during a live event 1 minute in? I think there are some bugs to work out. I opened a ticket to investigate, but do keep an eye out at the beginning of your Live events. If you see the simulated live grey bar when you enter your Live event you may see the same glitch at the start of your broadcast.
