  1. I have a Galaxy S8 and it has an 18.5:9 aspect ratio. With apps such as YouTube and Netflix, I have the option to make the video a fullscreen video instead of the standard 16:9 aspect ratio. Unfortunately, Twitch does not allow this. This would not be a problem except for the fact that many devices have OLED screens. Because the 16:9 aspect ratio does not use the full screen, pixels on either side are left turned off. Over time, this leads to reverse burn in and color issues with the screen as the pixels in use will degrade faster…

  2. Watching streams that are not live can be a bit of a pain at times. It’d be nice to feature options such as “jump to” icons like 15 second forward or 15 second backwards. There is also currently a bug whee after pausing a replay stream, the audio cuts out.

  3. Have an option in the auto host section to not allow vodcasts to be hosted. If you want to manually host, fine. I also feel that vodcasts should be in their own category.

  4. When it is recorded they can specify a cut and when the stream appears in "Past Broadcasts" it will appear as 2 videos which switch at the point of the cut, with the game and title being that set at the start of each.

    So say I start a livestream I call "building a bridge" and the game is "minecraft" and later switch to "tf2 and the title "I'm gunna git you sukka", then specify a cut, 2 past broadcast VODS will be created.

    One with game minecraft called "building a bridge"
    The second with game TF2 called "I'm gunna…

  5. I sometimes wish to stay updated with the channels I follow while I'm in theatre mode, which requires me to exit theatre mode. This is just a small annoyance which also get's rid of my immersion.

    Yes, I can use hotkeys to quickly switch but that doesn't always work due to the Alt key requirement, besides most people use Alt for other things.

    Suggestion: show the following icons/or bar when hovering over the left side of the screen. Sync the timing with the title and buttons on the bottom that show when you move your mouse on screen. I'd suggest…

  6. With the upcoming feature of local transcoding via OBS, I have a simple request, two fold:

    1. Allow the user to still manage custom settings for quality. The mention of "autoconfig wizard" is worrying, since I work hard to do custom encoding settings to make streams look better for my content.

    2. Allow high bitrate 1080p streams. 1080p still has issues with 6 Mbps and H264. If we are going to have 1440p or 4K streams that are going to probably push 20-30+ Mbps, it would be great to have an option of a "High Bitrate 1080p" stream. It would be the…

  8. I am an Editor for some broadcasters and whenever I create a clip on their channel, by default the "Feature this clip" checkbox is checked. This is a very weird default to me (Featured clips should be more of a rarity than a common thing you want to do all the time) and I've featured multiple clips by mistake because I forgot to uncheck it. Please uncheck this box by default or allow us to do so through a setting in our account.

  9. We should be able to sort clips by most recent and/or oldest. Not just the "last so many days" feature, but all clips from all time, just sorted by other ways than just "most viewed."

    I was trying to find a clip of my own that may or may not have been made about 2 months ago to share with someone, but I couldn't find it. I had to give up after several minutes of searching. If I could have sorted the way I'm suggesting, I would have located it much quicker or at least been able to determine it…

  10. ディスカバリーフィードテストに伴い縦画面用クリップが対象となりましたが、クリップを編集した際にそれらを解除する方法が見つかりません。
    意図しないクリップが表示されるのを防ぐために元のクリップをそのままに、縦画面用クリップのみを解除または削除する手段があると便利です。

  13. "Retro" category streamers playing M Rated games are problematic because their stream doesn't get the "Mature-rated game" content label that gets automatically applied to properly categorized games.

    I suggest allowing people to set a game to Mature (instead of it being automatic, and locked out for manual enabling), or setting the Retro Category as a Mature game to capture everything.

    The labeling rule should not apply to all categories except Retro.

    Or remove the Retro category, but then where would old uncategorized games go (if they exist)?

    Am I being crazy?

  14. Make the "Paid Promotion" label stay on the Stream's video, or on mouse-over, instead of only when initially viewing the stream. Please. It goes away after a while, even when mousing over the stream's video. I have to refresh the stream to see it again, and it's possible that I don't see it within the short timeframe of entering the stream.

    Might also be nice if the Branded Content label showed up before entering the stream, such as in the tags or placed over the stream's thumbnail.

    As I believe that the Rerun tool externally marks a stream as a…

  16. the new addition of these shortcuts is great, but it is difficult to understand the function of the key, it would be great if different colors were used instead of black and white

  17. As someone who enjoys watching Twitch streams before bedtime, I've encountered the frustration of waking up hours later, only to find that my battery has run out and a different stream is still running due to a raid.

    I wanted a feature that lets me set a timer for the stream to stop playing after a chosen duration, ensuring a peaceful night's sleep without waking up to unintended streams.

  18. Hey Twitch Staff,
    I created something that could completely change YouTube. I created a website called Sivantis.com that is a simple way for streamers to pay content creators for the videos they react to on YouTube I made a 15 minute YouTube video (sorry in advance for the audio) explaining how it works. In this video you will see how it could benefit monetization on Twitch as well.
    Thanks for your time.
