• Higher Bitrate: (Above 10.000, with video quality selector can be managed so if someone won't use that high download usage, he can tweak it), we still have a really low bitrate, and that force us try to tweak OBS to reach higher quality with lower CPU encoding speed. Still this is not a miracle, and 6000 bitrate is so limited (even if there is a trick to go beyond and reach 8000 bitrate).

• HDR: OBS doesn't support because it's not worth it nowadays since Twitch is not supporting it, but other platforms are starting to give a hint to this technology. I think would be nice to have this option since Twitch is being used in so many Smart TV's in the present. So they could enjoy Twitch in a higher quality. Probably this option should need Twitch partnering with OBS or any other streaming program to make it possible in the best way.

• Higher framerate/resolution: These days we're having better connections that allow us to go beyond the old limits, we could make this work since right now is really normal to see a gameplay in 120FPS and even the next gen consoles are supporting it.

Twitch is the best stream platform, but our technical options are the same since almost 10 years ago. We should aim to higher quality so there are no quality loss between our viewership and our content.

It's time to wake up and make some improvements :)

My idea is to give the viewer the option to put many streams on the screen. so the viewer able to watch many streamers streams at once on one screen ... there already is a page that imight not be from twitch itself that does so it´s called "twitchtheater.tv" this is the link to the site: https://twitchtheater.tv/ ..... My wish and idea is that this ability should be on the regular twitch site and app too... to give the viewer the possibility to have stream opened on one browser tab instead of many single tabs to watch many streams at one time.
Adding to that there should be the possibility too to add the other chats of the diffrent streams opened while wathcing tohose streams on one site ( with that I´m also referring to the linked site).

To conclude my idea is to implement the idea from the linked site (twitchtheater.tv) to twitch itself to improve the viewers twitch experience.

This has probably been thought about already, but why wouldn't you give the end-user the opportunity to decide the layout of the stream? What I mean is providing the end-user with similar options to the content creator. Meaning the user can decide where to place the face cam overlay, or even turn it off. Potentially even enable a second playback browser tab. That way, users have the potential to enjoy the gameplay without having part of the game covered with the content creators face. Or if they want, they can have the creators second camera on full screen in a second tab or on their second monitor. This wouldn't only make sense for gaming streams. Imagine a woodworker streaming himself carving a piece of wood. If the content creator has 2 cameras, he could set up a wide shot which includes the face and him talking, as well as a close up on the work he is doing with his hands. The user can then decide which angle he wants to go for, or even have both open at the same time. Of course, I am not sure how easy it is to implement this feature, but it doesn't sound impossible to me.

This may be more of a question than a suggestion. As I couldn't find much information regarding this...

While watching a live stream, the streamer's audio is out of sync with his/her lips.

I am not referring to when the audio is out of sync by a whole second or more...

I refer to a stream in which the streamer knows what he is doing, and there is nothing wrong with the settings.

It happens basically on all streams, so it seems normal and maybe not all viewers will notice it, but there is definitely a slight out of sync issue that exists...

I did notice an exception though, while watching "twitchgaming" channel. Many people show up there, so it depends who is currently speaking there,
but sometime the sync is 100% perfect on that channel. And then the viewing experience is so much more fun.

I assume this is related to factors beyond my knowledge, and this is something that may be "the way it is" due to limitations that simply exist.

I would like to understand more on why this happens though.

Some of us have websites- eCom stores, information websites, etc. I have a PC hardware review website and would like to wish to integrate it just like Youtube. I wish Twitch had the tools that worked.

Twitch has embed code separately for viewing and chat. But it's rather a general code that has fixed width and height. You'd think a big platform like Twitch would have an official WordPress plugin with a responsive design. Also, plugins have better compatibility with WordPress.

There are plugins for Twitch, but they have long been discontinued. There are so many websites out there that use their own coding for responsive twitch stream and chat embedding on respective sites. They get a large audience and typically WordPress pages/ post has better search engine indexability and discoverability.

If you want to force people to join Twitch for complete interaction from websites, fair enough. omit the chatbox and have the view-only window, instead. This way people can view but if they want to interact they'll need to sign up and sign in. But at least have a WordPress plugin for an official responsive twitch stream window.
