Option A: Third-Party Streaming Service with Mobile Emulation
Some advanced third-party live streaming platforms are specifically designed to emulate a mobile stream on Instagram, which can trick Instagram into enabling the "Invite Guest" feature while still broadcasting your computer camera/setup.

One example mentioned in search results is RTMP.IN, which has a "Webcamera / WebRTC" mode that claims to:

Allow devices connected to the computer to be used for streams.

Invite guests similar to the native Instagram app ability.

This is likely the closest you will get to your desired setup, as it attempts to bypass Instagram's restrictions by simulating the mobile app environment.

Option B: Using an Android Emulator (More Technical)
You could try running the Instagram Android app on your computer using an emulator like BlueStacks.

Install an Android Emulator on your PC.

Install the Instagram App within the emulator.

Configure the Emulator to recognize your computer's webcam as the primary camera source.

Start a Live from the Instagram app inside the emulator, which should allow you to invite guests via the mobile app interface.

⚠️ A Note of Caution: Using non-official methods, such as emulation or some third-party services that bypass the standard RTMP key, carries an inherent risk. Instagram may view this as a violation of their terms of service, which could potentially lead to temporary or permanent restrictions on your account.

I recommend exploring a reputable third-party streaming service that offers a proven method for inviting guests from a desktop source.

Hi @phillypro ,

I noticed this issue. We at Roxonn help teams and developers pay for completed GitHub tasks without hiring full-time contractors.

If helpful, I’d be happy to show how Roxonn can get this task done quickly.
