make the video and audio stop buffering every 10 seconds
stop all the buffering

Hey all,
I would like to let you know that we have a special feature to report such issues as buffering, or any other playback issue. To do so, please click on the Settings icon (cog wheel) in the bottom right corner of your video screen and select the Report Playback Issue option. This will directly send a report to the relevant team with the necessary information to accurately track all hiccups with the players that occur, by attaching the specific data in real time needed to investigate such issues. Thank you!

I get buffering all the time... using windows 10, 16GB ram, Geforce GTX1060, SSD disks... and a good CPU... so that isn't the problem, I have a solid internet connection, cabled... (no wifi)
and I can see youtube in 4K without any buffering issues.. (playing one right now...)But it seems the last couple of weeks it is getting worse... I can't mod this way... and I am planning to stream also... but this got me worried.
I don't know how to fix such thing, but I hope Twitch will look into this and try a few thingies out that might help! :)
because I love Twitch.. :D

GiantWaffle's stream has been buffering for 5 minutes straight and this is the only other tab/program i have running. What a JOKE.

Same story here! Feels like Twitch's website has a problem running for a extended amount of time. It's like the website forgets how to work after 20 mins. Buffering and stopping every 10 seconds afterward. Absolutely unwatchable. Going to have to cancel my subscriptions.

+1 to this. I get solid 300Mbps+ download out of the country, but any stream with over 1000Kbps rate starts stuttering.

I have a 100Mbps fibre connection and Twitch also buffers every 10 seconds or so for me. Literally no other streaming service on this planet buffers on my connection. My ISP is not a problem as all major ISPs in South Africa have the same problem. FFS please spend money on your servers Twitch.

Getting the same issue as everyone else, constant buffering no matter how low the quality. Only started happening about 2 weeks ago, I've double checked that it is not my internet or browser that is the problem.

I haven't been able to watch Twitch in a while now, because it keeps buffering every single stream I hop in, any quality. I've already tested my internet connection and it's working fine. Youtube, and other streaming sites work just fine.

With HTML enabled I have constant buffering no matter what playback quality I choose.
If I disable HTML then the stream just drops frams no matter what playback quality I choose.
Started about 24 hours ago and it is 100% not my internet. -

Same Problem the Player uses 100% of my Downstream , just 9MBit/s, but even if I use LOW Quality and the Buffer reloads every few seconds (and still 100% downstream used).

Yo Twitch, how about making your core service, being streams, actually usable? It used to be quite nice for a little while a couple weeks back when you had quality options for small streams. Now that you have disabled them again, I can't watch anything anymore. Funnily, I can't even watch streams at 1500kbps anymore, which used to work just fine. What did you do to degrade your service so much? Focusing on Northern America too much? Please show users without fiber optics down here in Europe some love, too. It's real difficult not to be pissed at you, considering none of the streams I used to follow is watchable anymore.
