ok so my viewer average is 2.9, and i get a stream that has 3.9 average viewers on the stream overall on stream performance and some reason my average viewers went down to 2.8 even though i had way over 2 average viewers on the stream i dont know if its a bug or something but its very weird

Can confirm this issue is happening to me as well, I have up to 5 people active in stream and my viewer count still says it is 2

Vengo ya haciendo 3 streams aproximadamente en donde en el chat están siempre escribiendo y son aproximadamente 5 personas diferentes, pero ni el stream labs, ni el directo mismo marca más de 1 espectador. Ellos estuvieron ahí desde que comenzé el stream (los 5) y los espectadores no se movían de 1 y a los 30 min pasó a 2 espectadores. Así no se puede subir la media de espectadores ya que deberia de haber tenido una media de 5 pero me dieron una media de 1.7

After many hours of streaming I realize that the viewer numbers are ALWAYS wrong. I have asked friends to watch as members, but twitch says they are NOT there. Not even after two hours they were shown. Also in Stream OBS wrong numbers are shown. There are more than in the statistics but they are also wrong. PLEASE get this under control. As a small streamer that has actually reached the next level a long time ago, fails due to a BUG in the participant count.

a mi me pasa lo mismo ayer sin ir mas lejos tenia unos 5 amigos viendo el directo y cuando acabe, me llego el mail y me ponia que solo tuviera un 1 persona viéndolo y eso me baja la media.
Cual es el problema porque esta claro que algo pasa me lleva pasando semanas y me baja la media de espectadores.

Look I usually don’t care about how many watching me but I had like 3 in chat talking and a few friends watching and it just said 1 viewer and I’m so close to Affiliate I was on 2.63 but now I’m on 2.6 . To be honest am i going to go back to the bottom if this keep happening .

I have at least 4 users saying that they are on and my view count dont show, Im worried about my avarege viewers that maybe not be counting it correctly ?can you check it please ?

Comigo aconteceu isso ja alguns dias e permanece, algum retorno?

Same thing has currently been happening to myself. I have 3-5 Dedicated friends who love watching my stream plus another 3-5 who will watch every chance they get. Tonight I did a text server. I had my family Tune in. Even with 4 people watching.. It showed 1-2 and then randomly 7.. then 2 then 5 then 7 then 2 and stayed at 2 for the longest time.. This should hopefully be fixed as I am currently trying to become affiliated and this truly is affecting it majorly. Will update my opinion if anything changes.

Ya van varias ocasiones que no me cuenta las visualizaciónes de los espectadores cuando hay más de 10 espectadores en el chat

Me estuvo ocurriendo es que cuando haces un stream y tenes como 5 o x numero de espectadores cuando termina ese directo hay veces que no te cuentan bien la media de ese stream y al contar mensualmente ya estas perdiendo por ese stream que cuentan mal la media. O algunas veces hay por ejemplo 5 personas hablando o interactuando y el contador de viewers no sube de 1 o 2, la verdad es muy triste porque hace que te cueste mas subir a afiliado y se nota que la plataforma no apoya mucho a los nuevos streamer total no le estamos generando dinero

Not sure where to obtain help because there is no "report" button on my video after stream. I am trying to reach affiliate and it is not recording my views properly. It has been like this for 2 weeks. Not sure if this is because of OBS or Twitch. I would truly appreciate your support on this.
Thank you!

Now Im having this issue as well. I have 4 or 5 people all chatting in my stream but my count never varies from 1. Anyone heard anything about them trying to fix this??

i have found that changing online status to offline will show the viewer count correctly but this has only happened one time so far so dont know if this is a forever fix. i also feel like i shouldnt have to change anything for it to work :/ twitch just needs to fix their ****

The viewer count is always wrong during streams and the like. I'm always getting traffic my way with all kinds of people showing up, some talk and some don't but what I've noticed is that none of them show on the viewer count if they don't speak. Most times it only shows one viewer even when people are watching but not talking. When they do it takes a couple minutes for them to register them as a viewer but only if they say something like every 10-30 minutes. I would have been able to get affiliate a long time ago had it worked in such a way where someone viewing my stream counted as someone viewing my stream. I've been streaming for four years now and I've finally got enough followers to qualify for affiliate and I'm still doing my best to grow that viewer count. Having streamed for so long and have that viewer count not work properly has been really tough. I'd like for it to be fixed but I'm not giving up on my way to affiliate.

It's like this because apparently for the twitch algorithm to pick up a user as a viewer they have to say something every like 10-30m or something like that. if they don't they don't count them for some reason.

while streaming your able to see everyone thats viewing the stream but it does not show all in the count views . I count 13 to 7 views in most streams but count view says there only 1 some times 3 and all thoses names in mod view under users viewing the stream are gaining loyalty points and show up on my streamlabs leaderboard list but never show up as viewer when i am streaming

I have the same Problem and a lot of other small Streamers also. Twitch has to do some fixes here it is a Problem with the Servers in my Opinion. If there are a lot Streamers online the ViewerCount is wrong. For small Streamers it is very disapointing if you know there are 20 People Chatting but only 2 are in the ViewerCount.

i am now having this issue never had this before but i had 4-5 people watching my stream and it was showing 1 viewer sometimes 2

not that it matters as much right now but my avg viewers went from 3.3 to 2.4
just think its kinda strange

Also note, if watchers have their volume off on your stream, it doesn't count.
