Look like the quotes are directional quotes. Go back and retype every quotation mark and it should work.

Bumping this thread to mention that I'm having issues:

1. Terminal window runs fine and prints frame outputs but stream doesn't start
2. If stream does start (sometimes it works), I only see a green screen with static.
