  1. Allow streamer to fast forward the movie. We were 1 hour into the movie online 20 minute left and lost OBS connection for 5 seconds. This caused the watch party to end and on resuming the movie started back at the beginning and we couldn't fast forward.

  2. the extension consists in being able to see and be able to control the music which passes in the stream. a special special channel for music that all content creators can use, and which allows them to put Spotify links to be able to play their favorite music, the improvements compared to the current system is the possibility for viewers to change the volume on their side and to be able to see without going through commands like "!song" the music playing. To push the extension further, I thought of an option similar to that on Discord, in one click…

  3. When clicking the name of a stream team, there used to be a popup and the channel watching didn't disappear. Now when clicking a stream team the stream you are watching ends and you exit chat and the webpage. Please fix and fire whichever dev changed this without thinking - joshmdmd

  4. Create a plugin, that will allow a user hear the music the streamer is playing via their own Service, Spotify/YouTube/Amazon/Bandcamp etc
    (linking a currently playing song to a database on each service)
    so that the viewer is hearing music through a license they already paid for, and the streamer won't get in trouble for playing infringing music. and if a user doesn't have a paid service linked, use that spot to advertise a service such as amazon music.

  5. Now that Hosting is no more, when a streamer raids someone, you should show a notification on their offline channel who they raided, as long as that raid target is still streaming.

    I thought that they would be displayed in the "offline carousel" but that doesn't seem to be happening, if that was the intent.

    Regardless, there should be an explicit notification of where to go if you missed a raid.

  6. This really bugs me. If you do a Watch Party (twitch, amazon linked thing), and pull up something on Amazon to stream, you can get hit with TOS violations even though you're doing it with Stream Manager and the content is searchable via Twitch. If Amazon owns Twitch, and you Watch Party Amazon content the right way, I see this almost as a trap. Amazon/Twitch need to figure out what content on Amazon would trigger a TOS on Twitch and make sure it's NOT AVAILABLE to stream in a Amazon/Twitch sponsored watch party. Either that or any content that's available…

  7. The request is to give Twitch viewers an account option (intended for Broadcasters and their moderators to use while browsing) which allows you to see/Display and Filter your searches for other streams on "Channel raidability" information from the regular Directory pages on Twitch while browsing and searching for streams based on various combinations of Tags and Game category.

    Also expand the /streams API endpoint to indicate whether Live streams' allow raids by the specified broadcaster, And if so.. what the minimum and maximum number of viewers are and what their restriction options are in order to raid.

    Basically provide a…

  8. Hosting was and still is an invaluable community tool. To remove it and not provide its actual functionality to raids is extremely anti-user. Raiding does not provide the same experience that many users enjoyed about Hosting. Hosting provided a local community the chance to enjoy larger streamers/events without being forced to chat in a 10k+ chat box.

    Twitch chose to deprecate Hosting because it was a confusing user experience, but I think they can easily come up with a newer, stream-lined Hosting system for smaller streamers to enjoy larger content with their own chat.

  9. Hello, my inventory page for twitch drops has been flooded by 1 game. I do not want drops of that game, I just watch a stream and instantly get these drop counters in my inventory.

    Now it's harder to navigate my drops of other games that I do want.
    Can you enable an option to disable drops of certain games, please?

    Thanks!

  10. With my vmix setup, I bring guest browser sources in directly and monitor them through vmix directly... but I'm getting duplicate audio from the Backstage browser window. Since I need to manage guests with that window, I can't close it, but if I mute them, it mutes them everywhere, so it would be cool if you could do a "soft" mute for Backstage, so guests still are heard in OBS/vmix sources, but not in the managing backstage side. I was able to achieve this by changing the OUTPUT audio setting for my browser to something random, but then I can't…

  11. Fifa 23 FGS swap token. I linked my twitch account to ea and I watched the whole eafifa stream and I still haven't got my FGS swap tokens after 40 hours.

  12. I've had this idea lingering in my mind for a while, so figure I might as well toss it out to you guys! I think it would be supremely cool if there were such a thing as Streamer Theaters, in which communities could gather to watch their favorite games play out on a big screen. I know the Smash Bros community would be a huge fan of that at the very least, especially if the venue could accommodate their own setups so they can play while it's happening (definitely wouldn't recommend a fully traditional theater setup for this). It's the…

  13. Teams have no purpose other than to have a page that hardly anyone looks at with streamers that are there for a reason?

    There is really not much point now that hosts are gone.

    If we had Team Emotes and a chat badge!
    that would be amazing!

  14. There are too many developers requiring an absurd amount of watch time for their daily drops. For example, The Cycle: Frontier requires watching for 18 hours(!) for 6 of their daily drops while No Man's Sky requires 6 hours 45 minutes for their daily drop. There isn't enough time in the day for just these 2 games, meanwhile there are multiple other events going on. By allowing the developers this kind of freedom, you're punishing your users.

    Twitch should revisit their rules regarding drops to make them more community friendly. While there are many ways to solve this issue, I…

  15. There is a chrome extension which allows people to create stream-safe watch parties for Netflix, Disney+ and more. As there would be no DMCA breach, is this something that is against Twitch TOS, or would it be completely acceptable to stream under the same rules as a normal Twitch Watch Party?

    If it is something that is not accepted by Twitch, would there be any chance of Twitch making arrangements with other streaming sites in order to do this legitimately?

  16. How about if some little things would become more controllable and customizable for the viewer. In streams (of course if the streamer would turn on this feature) you would be able to control more of what you see on your screen. For example, facecams. Depending on the game facecams can be a bit on the way of the gameplay. Streamers do their best to position it in the best positon and size possible but what if that was in the viewers hands and it would be even easier for the streamer. The streamer would be able to record his/her face…

  17. Audio volume can be a huge headache to tweak, because there are so many moving parts involved-- (in-game audio settings, capture settings, mic settings, etc) and what the streamer hears isn't always what viewers hear. Streaming software displays your audio levels in real time, but not everybody understands what this means for your actual output.

    This leads to some streams having good mic/game balance but being whisper-quiet without realizing, or streams where the streamer KNOWS an adjustment is needed, but gets mixed feedback from viewers about how much to change. It also means a lot of trial and error for…

  18. Please create a way for my viewers to sign in with their spotify accounts and listen to the same playlist I am on spotify. Either browser extension or on site solution would be fine. But I'm already paying for licencing to all this music. I'm sure everybody else is paying for spotify too. Why not partner with Spotify to set this up and solve the issue with DMCA music once and for all on twitch? --- To be clear what this looks like, is when you show up to a streamers strum, you will be presented with a popup or…

  19. once a raid is initiated by the streamer any streamers planning to raid in should be given a notification that the current stream they want to raid into is in the process of raiding another streamer.

    this would help with instances of when someone raids into a stream that has already raided out leaving them in an empty chat.

    possible solution: having a notification pop-up letting Streamer B know that Streamer A is currently in the process of raiding another person. accompanied with a button allowing Streamer B to "cancel raid" or "join the raid", which would let them group…

  20. Would be nicer if the button could give an reason for the "Raid Stop" button

    Like "This channel closed the raid due is ending the stream" because is a bit ankward to raid a person and the answer be the generic "raid settings do not allow you to raid at this time".

    The raider could think this channel doesn't want ANY raid at all and never come back ever.
