  1. I own a device called a Rii mini keyboard, and I want to use that to chat on Twitch through my smart TV, in addition to my phone. My phone's keyboard isn't intuitive enough for me to have maximum control over keystrokes, and I would like the 2nd option I mentioned above to become available.

  3. I thought of this while I was slicing up a ribeye roast to store for later. I wanted to watch a twitch stream on my projector, I was going to set it up with casting but it was to far from my PC.

    Twitch should start adding there app onto projectors. My new on Auking is great, it auto focuses, bright in light. Has netflix/youtube integrated. I thought it would be a good idea to get twitch integrated with these projectors. It would be advertisement, even if people never watched twitch, its a free app that you don't have to…

  4. Hi,
    I would like to report a problem with the Twitch app on my Samsung Smart TV DU8070 (running Tizen OS).

    Live streams freeze after about 20 minutes of watching.
    I've been using the app for 2 months and have been experiencing the same issue consistently. The problem temporarily resolves when I exit the live stream and re-enter it, but then the stream freezes again after about 20 minutes (however, when the stream freezes, the chat continues to work).

    What I've tried to solve the problem (but didn't help):
    - clearing the cache
    - uninstalling and reinstalling the app

    I'm…

  6. I got my twitch layout messed up and there's no settings in my twitch account and/or dashboard to revert the twitch layout back to normal. This only happened for the twitch website.

  7. I'd really like to use Twitch's Android TV app on my Sony Bravia TV (VH21) but there seems to be a problem with the picture quality. None of the picture settings affect the app, for example, nothing happens when I toggle between the local dimming settings. On a LCD TV, this particular setting is perhaps the most important for good picture quality. Older versions of the app were not affected by this bug. As a consequence the picture in Twitch ends up looking rather mediocre. Every other app works fine.

    Please fix ASAP.

  8. With xiaomi TV stick Twitch keeps getting paused after several seconds, and can’t be played anymore, reloading will resulting the same result, stream will paused after several seconds

    Note: there’s no issue with my internet because on my laptop or on my phone it’s running normally

    Repro step:

    Open a twitch stream (e.g: esport2tv)
    Wait several seconds
    The stream paused, and can’t be played anymore
    Expected result: stream should continue normally

    TV Device details: Xiaomi TV stick

  9. The new update - March 3 2023 - has so many downgrades! There are some issues that I was hoping to be addressed, but instead we got more problems.

    1) Not being able not see more than the top 25 Live Followed Channels is a big problem. There are a lot of new and growing streamers I follow, support and moderate that are getting zero visibility with this new update.

    2) Not being able to chat from the tv, and instead being sent to a QR code that connects to the mobile app stops the ability of people participating directly…

  10. Expected Behavior:

    Home > Live Followed Channels should include....uhhh, all of the channels that I follow that are live.

    Actual Behavior:

    Home > Live Followed Channels shows me a random set of the channels that I follow that are live. What channels are shown is almost inversely proportional to how often I watch said channels. The count of the channels shown in this section is also random. Sometimes 7, sometimes 4, just all over the place.

    In order to actually see "Live followed channels", I have to navigate to "Following" > "Live Followed Channels". Not only is this an extra…

  11. New App video buffers and audio lags on wifi. Sometimes it lags on ethernet, wired connection. I am using a Apple TV 4K (1st generation). I am on the current tvOS which is 17.5.1. Never had this problem until now.

  12. In the past it has been super nice and convenient to switch which of my followers I am watching as they go live, switch games, etc.
    Since stories have been pushed more, the list of streamers I follow has completely disappeared. Replaced by an "Open Stories" option alone. This is on a firefox browser. I don't care about the inferior algorithmically generated "Recommended channel" option either. The recommendations are always awful there.

  13. Native TV apps on TV sadly don't have low-latency (LG, Samsung, Sony f.e.). The purpose for Twitch is to talk/play/react directly to the livestream,but it's impossible. The time between livestream and reaction usually is up to 10 seconds plus the time you need to answer. This creates a time window where the community is out of sync which leads to chaos, so it's sadly not enjoyable to watch Twitch over TV.

    This also creates a cycle of spending even more energy than usually needed - smartphone + TV vs. PC + TV. That's an additional 180-300W just for talking and…

  14. Updated my AppleTV yesterday and I am still experiencing audio lags and studdering on wifi and ethernet. One of the streamers I watch I can only watch them with the chat on the side open not in full screen mode. If I close the chat then full screen mode is in slow mode.

  17. Can log into the application on the TV, can see previews of what is happening on the stream, but when I go to watch it it gives me the “Bug - Oh bummer… an error occurred while playing this content” message. It just started happening today. I have not done any new updates, haven’t changed wifi, didn’t disconnect wifi at all when it started happening. I was watching a stream and just went into another one and this pops up no matter what I do.

    I have tried shutting off my tv and unplugging it for an extended period. I…

  18. On the latest version of the Apple TV Twitch app, the main carousel currently only shows a limited number of live streamers, but gives no indication if there are other streamers currently live. You have to navigate to a different tab to see all live streams from streamers you currently follow.

    Either show all live streamers in the main carousel or indicate that you are not showing all currently live streams and offer a link to see all live streams for streamers I follow.

    Better yet, provide a multi-row grid, so I don't have to scroll far to the left…

  19. When I’m watching a streamer on my LG TV and they raid someone it doesn’t automatically work the way it does on my iPad. Not sure if there is a way to do it manually but it would be nice if it worked as seamlessly as on my iPad.

  20. It was very popular in recent years and I would like to propose other people's idea again. In Echo devices (those with Alexa integrated), especially the Echo show category, they have had the peculiarity of having video streaming applications with them. For example Prime Video and Netflix, given that Twitch is "acquired" by Amazon, the Twitch application for Echo show devices would also be useful. Or at least make it possible to access via the site since Amazon silk (browser within Echo show devices) is not among the browsers supported by Twitch. I ask for an opinion on this as…
