Make VOD's great again
VOD's need a drastic update! How do you expect that users upload videos if even the past broadcast function doesent work properly?
A couple feature that we are in desperate need of:
- General stability update
- On the fly rewind
- VOD search (Title) for viewers
- VOD ratings systems (viewers can vote 1-5 stars)
- Viewer VOD Ranking (depending on rating)
- Skip muted parts (setting)
- remove the commentary function
- mobile download cache (look at VOD's offline)624 votes -

Let us know in the comments your experience with streams using lowered delay options.
Note: Not all broadcasters have this enabled, and comes at the cost of different buffering for some viewers.

(South) African Twitch Ingest Server
It would be great if you guys could set an African, or South African, server up at some point in the not-too-distant future. I live in South Africa and have a really hard time streaming to any of the EU, let alone the NA or Asian ones. Currently YouTube has streaming servers here but it just isn't the same streaming to YouTube Gaming. The Twitch community is what makes it what it is and not being able to run a stable stream from here in South Africa turns so many would-be streamers away from potential bright futures on Twitch.tv. We…

Fix the buffering and quality management! Streams are down right unwatchable.
Streams buffer every second and you watch more of a buffer circle than stream! My internet and computer are far too good to not be able to even watch a stream without buffer in high quality let alone ANY quality. I used to watch twitch everyday now I can't watch ANY anymore! Fix your platform.

Stop spamming me with ads when I have to fucking reload the page
... because your stream stopped and will never RECONNECT unless I refresh the page, and when I do you fucking hit me with an ad again... and again... and again. Worst, it's always the same fucking add!
I can't report the real problem. So I'm reporting the real problem here. It's not the ad is the same, it's that you obviously can fucking tell I'm still same person, still have me as logged in when I refresh. So you can obviously fucking tell I just watched you fucking add a minute ago!

Increase the bitrate for source quality.
I understand people can't watch HQ streams because they have low internet speed but it's not fair for those who can.Games have a lot of foliage which makes the game look very bad.

The video pauses alone from time to time
The video pauses alone from time to time. I really dont know why, It does not have a pattern. I have to press F5 a couple times until it stops.

Completely custom quailty
This is a huge issue for mobile users. My device doesn't support 60 hz. So whenever a broadcaster sets their source quality to 60 fps it has all sorts of issues. But changing the quality ALSO decreases the bitrate. I have excellent internet, but my screen can't take it whatsoever. Would like bitrate and quality be separated in the quality options. The old system should still exist for users who don't understand bitrate and quality but this should be slated as advanced.

Improve playback image quality
The image quality of the video on Twitch's site often comes nowhere near the image quality of the video I uploaded. This is especially noticeable in scenes with fast motion. For comparison:

Stream vodcasts unmuted, or provide better tools for dealing with muted vodcasts
I've been uploading old vods for the purpose of vodcasting on a channel I'm editor for for the last week, and long muted sections have been a recurring problem. It takes hours to upload and process a vod, just to find out that long sections are muted and there's nothing I can do about them at vodcast time.
Some suggestions
1. When vods are vodcasted, play them unmuted (since they aren't archived anyway and are essentially canned live broadcasts)
2. Allow a way to quickly remove muted sections from a vod
3. Provide editors the ability to fast-forward through vods…22 votesAgreed that the muting experience is not ideal right now. We will look into this, but lots of things to build and improve for Twitch VODs.
