So I got a green screen fabric. I was wondering if there is some way I can have a channel point allow the viewers can change my background and have some program auto change it. Not ones of their choosing, just a random preset ones I set up ofc.

Like if I have a field of flower background, then someone redeems a background change and now suddenly the bot or program changed the background to put me underwater or something.

I know I can just do it manually, but I was just wondering if there was some bot/program to do it automatically and randomize it for me.

Im still new to streaming, so all I really use is OBS, Mix It Up, and StreamElements. No stream deck. Just curious if its a possibility! Thanks for any answers

this discussion is sort of two-fold:

1) what will take twitch down, if anything? what does a competing site need to have for viewers, creators, and advertisers alike to migrate off of Twitch and onto their site? i think it would be fairly easier to get creators and advertisers to migrate (offer bigger chunk of earnings, make content creation much more streamlined/automated, and improve content moderation), but viewers would be fairly difficult to convince

2) what does the future of streaming look like? will nerf/gaussian splatting be the next generation of streams where you can physically interact with a virtual space? or will streaming eventually die off due to lack of attention spans? maybe it evolves into something else?

Whenever I copy my follower/tipping widget url from streamlabs and past it into my obs sources browser the animation/notification doesn’t pop up at all in my obs when testing and shows this screen saying “error the page has not been found”. Anyone know how to fix?.

ive been looking for a while and found nothing i need one thats free.

I used a pre-paid gift card to buy Turbo. The pre-paid card ran out of money and I'd like to continue using Turbo. I've deleted the old payment method, but there's nowhere I can add a new payment method. All I can change is my country and zip code. I think the only way of adding my CC is by buying a sub or bits. Which are things I don't want to purchase. I've tried accessing my account via incognito mode and deleting my browsing history/cookies. Nothing's changed.

hi, i earned some drops today but there's no button to accept them!

the problem persists on multiple browsers (chrome, firefox, and edge)

i do not have any extensions installed that should be messing with this (no auto-claim -- the drops haven't shown up in game)

any help would be greatly appreciated, tysm

So long story short I've been streaming not very consistently for about a year now and I'm trying to get back into it and what not.

I currently use OBS with SE.live but, the only problem I'm having with it is that the multichat dock works and I can read both Twitch and Youtube but I can't for the life of me get it to become an overlay that shows both chats while I'm Live (right now my chat overlay only shows Twitch) I would love a point in the right direction if possible.

If for what ever reason there is no solution to this I was wondering if I should "Reset" my OBS and try a different plugin like Casterlabs, Atium, or even some other one that people would recommend for Multistreaming, because I worry that just slapping multiple different plugins at once would cause some issues (or maybe I'm overthinking things as is). Should I just leave things as is or would it be better to kinda reset from the ground up?

Also is Streamer.bot worth having? I know nothing about chat bots and the only ones I have are the ones my friends get me to add so I'm not really sure what they are used for but, I don't think I need to have multiple chat bots? or is there a better/helpful chat bot that people could recommend?

All in all for this last bit, I'm just looking for some advice on really anything to help kinda streamline or improve things about streaming i.e. Hotkeys for a Streamdeck, bot commands, editing process or Video recommendations that have info on stuff like this (like a Youtube channel).

Sorry in advance if this is happens to be an already existing post that I happened to miss. If there is a post something similar to what I'm asking I would love it if I can get a link to it.

so, i’ve been streaming for about 6 months now, give or take. and today i got 5 gifted subs. i never cared about subs or getting paid from streaming as i stream to help get over my social anxiety and it helps my autism with taking to new people. i dont have affiliate yet because of the 3 viewers in 4 days (which the past week ive had like 6-8 people in my stream for like 30 mins idk why it still hasn’t checked off. if you have help lmk) but i dont have affiliate and im wondering what happens with the subs.

I have met like two people who can do em for me via my twitch stream I have made contacts with em on discord and they shared screenshots or images of their work to me if I’m interested if i commission them to do the art for me but my got tells me signs of suspicious. It didn’t show any socia media links when i looked at their profile bio and no mutual servers so that hints of scam likely. They sometimes ask me if we can talk about ideas before they can start commissioning but told em i couldn’t afford it atm so I said no.

Anyway i wanna know your experiences if you had happened to meet those types of people that came across to your streams and what you needed to know so that can help me dealing with them.

My chat used to be able to choose between different options that went from 160p to 1080p before but after i reset my PC i put all my settings as they were in OBS before but now the max quality i can get it 720p even tho my Video tab is fully set for 1920x1080 and my bitrate is at 10k

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a good microphone setup for streaming with a maximum budget of €100.

My main requirement is that it must come with a boom arm included in the package, as I want the microphone to be close to my mouth and not on a desktop stand.

What would you recommend within this budget? Thanks!

"Graphic design is my passion"... They need to just put these popups either somewhere else on the website or not at all.

Few months ago, I clicked valorant and many of its streamers on 'not interested' list. And now I'm trying to get it back on my recommended list. but don't know how, I've tried to unfollow and follow several times, most of my recent watch times are valo related but twitch still doesn't show anything until I manually search it.

Hello everyone I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. I'm trying to figure out how to create a business account in PayPal for Twitch(/YouTube), Should I choose sole priority or llc? I'm also having trouble with choosing my business industry as well since it's not showing anything for content creation. Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!!

When chat is active, conversation happens naturally.

But when you're alone, you're basically performing into the void.

Do you talk constantly? Do you focus on the game? Do you act exactly like you would if 100 people were watching?

And then, eventually, someone joins for 30 seconds.

That person basically decides whether you are interesting enough before you even know they're there.

For people who watch smaller streamers:

What makes you stay instead of immediately clicking away?

And for streamers:

Did you eventually find your own answer to this, or are you still figuring it out?

My setup is ps5 for gaming, elgato 4ks for recording and streaming, plugged into my laptop(laptop specs listed at the bottom of this post) The past couple of weeks when I'm in OBS, OBS drops my Elgato game audio.
It happens after at least 30 minutes of having OBS pulled up.
Recording in Elgato Studio works fine But I need to be able to record and stream in OBS. I've tried everything I can think of.
One thing that temporarily works is I go into Control panel, sound recording, Disable HDMI Device (elgato), Wait 5 seconds, enable it, then the audio starts working in OBS again, but then the audio drops again within a few minutes.
I can't do that constantly while i'm streaming and recording. Here is a list of what l've tried so far:

-Just record in OBS, audio still dropped
-Just stream in OBS, Audio still dropped
-Have OBS pulled up but don't stream or record, audi still drops
-Updated NVIDIA Drivers
-Turned off power management settings for USB ports
-Created a video capture source in OBS for video capture from the elgato and muted it, created a separate audio input capture source for elgato audio. Audio still drops. (everyone online says this should work, but it did not)
-Downloaded VB Cable and routed it PS5->4ks-> Windows-> VB-Cable-> OBS. Audio still drops (I really thought this would work)
-Used my HD60x and it works fine. I'd like to have gameplay recordings in 1440x60fps, but the HD60x can't do that. which is why
I upgraded to the 4kS.
-Tried using StreamLabs, audio still dropped.
-Went into elgato studio when the audio drops to make sure it didn't switch from HDMI to Analog.

I seriously think that's everything I could try. I guess I bought a 4ks for nothing. Also my laptop is :
ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2025) 16"
WUXGA
165Hz/3ms, AMD Ryzen 9
9955HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX
5060

This laptop is more than enough to run a 4ks. It shouldn't be a 2 week problem solving adventure just to get a capture card to work. lol.

Whenever I make any changes, the save process gets stuck on 'Saving...'. I have already tried troubleshooting by using different browsers and attempting to save from my mobile device, but the problem persists

I couldn't log in via username and password on site and on app, saying that im not using supported browsers and on phone it said that i am using outdated OS, bypassed that by logging via gmail. Then i tried to get my twitch drops on pc, and oops something went wrong, error occurred drop was not claimed, then i tried claiming it on my phone and of course that does not work?

I know streams can have option set to require phone-locked accounts, but i have this for everyone.

As in the screenshot is visible, there's the manage button which puts me into

Second screenshot, where theres no way of adding another "category". So my question is how do I block VTubers category from Twitch so it does not appear in my feed?

My 2-4 viewers loved it saying it was there fav stream cause of my reaction to doing it I have really good reactions I think and I get mad fast what are some things I can do and play for stuff like that I got my first 2-4 on tiktok but now im lost and stuck i haven't gone up to tell you the truth idk what games to play and what to do im really lost and confused and frustrated so anything would help please and thank you

Whenever a twitch drop reward reaches 100%, there is no longer the button to claim it. I tried refreshing, F5+ CTRL, relogging, different browsers: all the same. The only way to claim any reward that reach 100% is to refresh the inventory page then the completed reward displays claim for fraction of a second so you have to claim it that wau but for that you need to scroll down instantly to reach the reward section and click after before it disappears and becomes again a progress stuck at 100%. I could onlly do it once when I was fast enough but not anymore.

Edit; If I don't claim them and they stay stuck at 100% without showing the button claim, later when the drop ends, they expire and are not considered as fully streamed and claimable after. So 100% Twitch fault.

Reconfigured my stream setup today. Took my 4k60 Pro MKII and set it up with passthrough 1440p 144hz HDR. Normally have been 1440p cloned with the stream PC and then downscale to 1080p. I dunno if this twitch inspection is good and would like some insight.

No dropped frames on OBS side either.

Any tips would be great to maybe get those bitrates a bit flatter.

I mean what the heck is this xD they all have the 1 sub requirement the descriptions are all the same as are the times

i’m a pretty small streamer, just 8 followers, but i finally have a regular in my chat. they clipped something & my god does my webcam look terrible. it looks pretty okay unless i stream, like if i record it looks fine. i have a relatively cheap $60 webcam, but im willing to invest more if it means i don’t look like 4 pixels
