  1. Just a few moments ago, I switched streams and the playback window was an inch too big: There was a field of empty black space between the chat scroll and the player where there wasn't one before. Since I hadn't updated my browser or changed it or anything like that, and further hearing other users complain about it, I decided that Twitch must have rolled out some new feature that wasn't playing nice with me. Heading over to the support ticket page, and after scrolling through the numerous options of permitted support ticket topics I couldn't find anything even close…

We have a particular system in place to track issues with video performance: please click on the cog wheel located in the bottom right corner of the video and select Report Playback Issue. The system will route a report to the relevant team accordingly. Thank you!

  2. If I go to one channel and from that channel go to another, I seem to not have video quality better than 360p unless I refresh the browser. Its been happening for 3-4 days now.

    Please ensure that you have Store past broadcasts setting toggled on to enable archiving in your Stream Settings under the VOD Settings section. If you have this setting enabled before running your stream and are still not seeing the VOD, please reach out to our team via https://link.twitch.tv/GetSupport. Thanks!

  5. Whenever I alt-tab or switch tabs on Chrome (Win7 x64) I get a 30 second disconnect with a purple screen telling me to watch from twitch.tv
    For example, if I have two streams open, the one which isn't focused will get intermittent disconnects. My browser is updated.

    Hi there,
    This is likely related to an issue with your broadcasting setup's microphone input settings. If you have Twitch Studio, we recommend reaching out to our support team at help.twitch.tv. Otherwise, please refer to the help information of your broadcasting software. Thank you!

  7. Whenever I tune in to a stream these days the video quality always defaults to 480p. Even when I try changing it to 1080p, the stream refreshes and stays at 480p. Please fix the streaming quality options. I cannot even tell what is happening on the stream at 480p.

  8. Some streams are working fine, but others will be loading forever. I will hear 3 words, before the stream freezes and goes to reload. This takes some minutes, then I will hear half a sentence again and it goes back into freezing and reloading

  14. Getting an increasing number of video playback cancelled error messages while watching twitch. I would use the contact support feature but your bot is too stupid to understand me and sends me unrelated replies.

  17. Nachdem die Qualität als Zuseher in letzter Zeit immer schlechter wurde bekommt man jetzt auf der Twitch Homepage auch noch die Meldung das man nicht auf Twitch schaut. Was soll denn so ein Blödsinn?
    Ich hoffe ihr fangt mal an die Qualität wieder mehr in den Vordergrund zu Rücken. Das geht ja gar nicht!

  18. Bug report:

    Context: I'm fullscreen on MacOS Safari, on a Twitch stream.

    The Bug: Periodically, the playback controls UI, including the progress bar, appear without any user interaction. They should stay invisible unless I move my mouse.

    The cause: That chat window seems to instigate this issue. If I go out of fullscreen mode, and hide the chat view, and go back to fullscreen, the issue no longer occurs.

  20. I just finished streaming where EVERYONE heard my voice. Now that I look at the playback, I can hear EVERYONE but my voice. My streamlabs recording was fine. Does anyone know why that is??
