Currently, the channel trailer is visible only to subscribers when "Subscriber-Only Archives" is turned on for Affiliates. This should not be the case. The channel trailer should always remain public, as it's entire purpose is to entice new viewers who have just discovered the page to find out more information and follow. It's actually not even designed for subscribers so they probably won't even watch it, it's designed for new viewers. Furthermore, the channel trailer is never streamed, therefore it's not really an "archive" of any sort and does not need to be considered locked-away content. They should remain public no matter the status of our Sub-Only Archives preference.

As there is different roles to be played on Twitch such as being a Gamer, Dj & Content Creator. I would like to push forward the Idea of a "Content Hoster".
A "Content Hoster" would simply provide the best Streams for Streamers by Streamers that is broadcasted to the public 24/7 by the "Content Hoster".

What will be included in this role:

1. Categories to Host Multiple streams on one channel. Eg. A category folder that titles "Apex Legends 24/7" which would hold 1 or more of the best live streams that suits the "Content Hoster" Channel. Categories will be shown in columns with the Title above and the thumbnails shown ( either the streamers thumbnail or live 3 second thumbnail ).

2. "Show Case" a stream at Content Hosters choice at the top of the channel. This will be live as soon as you enter the Content Hosters page. In addition to this, the Content Hoster can "Alternate" what content the Content Hoster wants to show case at any given time. This would alternate to the Content Hosters needs such as Scheduling, Error in broadcast, or just change of content.

3. "Auto Scheduling" would be a great option by Twitch as it could help with giving different streamers automatic rotating time slots for the Content Hosters channel and would make Hosting streamers better.

4. Add a "Play Next" option. This will allow the Content Hosters to search for content and be able to play the stream next, at a certain time (7:00pm ect.), In the minute ( 1min, 5min, 10min, 30min ).

This role will help Pro streamers, Average Streamers and especially the Rookie Streamers to become recognisable and better at honing there broadcasting skills. This would also allow Viewers to head over to a Content Hosters channel to find streamers that suit them. Last but not least the Content Hoster can use this as a learning adventure as they hone their skills Hosting the Streamers content on the Content Hosters channel, that will broadcasted the best way possible just like a Radio Station or a Television channel. Im sure there are more add-ons to be presented to this idea and also could be better pitched but I'm sure the public would love to be involved in twitch to not only produce content or watch it but to share it and broadcast it in the best way they can.

Thank You, Hope this idea pushes forward

There are events happening all the time. I can't remember them all. Is there a way to schedule them, so that I am notified when they are streaming? Like WoW Streams in English that only happen once per week? The Gamecon that is coming up on August 27th. Yes I could put these on my phone calendar, but it would be great to have them notify me when they start if I can asked to be notified. There may already be a way. I am new to Twitch so just learning. I love Twitch and am amazed at all the things you are involved in.

There should be an overhaul on the design and layout of Panels in the about sections. It would be nice if we can snap them into a simple grid system. And to adjust the pixel dimensions of each image in the panel with simple numerical values instead of eyeballing shapes using the running ants select tool. Also, when it comes to uploading a Custom Image for your Profile Banner, we can do away with pixel recommendations if they aren't universal between different computers and monitor/window sizes. It would be nice to know what kind of assets will be blocking the banner so we know exactly how to design our banner without trial & error. Which, in my experience, even after trial & error, only to realize it looks great on my Macbook pro, but all of the assets are chopped up, covered up, or have simply vanished on my brothers PC. Lastly, being able to move around Social Links' orders, after they've been created would save a lot of time for anyone that's even mildly OCD. These UI adjustments would make the world a better place.

For a smaller channel, nobody really watches the highlights... Although these short, edited videos well describe the channel, for smaller channels probably better than the most recent broadcast, and gives an overview if the streamer has made a good job with the highlight.

I would like the option to select a highlight as the featured video (Instead of the most recent broadcast) as the featured video when the user lands on a streamer's page.

If the user likes the highlight, he or she will probably watch more videos. Maybe when the highlight is played through, then the most recent broadcast could be shown, or you could have two videos on the landing page as an option, one with a highlight and one with the most recent broadcast.

I was going back to update my stream schedule after going through a game quicker than originally anticipated, and when I went to look to see if my schedule had updated, I saw there was overlap with upcoming streams and previously done streams. I do love the ability to pull up the streamer's schedule and see both upcoming streams and also streams that happened in the past 7 days and LOVE the ability to simple click and be taken to the VoD page, but it looks really messy the way the two overlap with each other. 

I included an image that shows my schedule with the highlighted part as upcoming streams and the past broadcasts that happened already left unedited. There needs to be some kind of clearer separation between the two in my opinion. Maybe above the timeline, across the 24 hours of a day, have two buttons centered above them with one saying "Upcoming streams" & "The Past Week's streams" as an idea. I'll be honest, I'm not someone trained to design UI's so I can't suggest too many ideas but I can for sure tell that the overlap between the two looks messy and uninformative. 

Also as a side mention, as someone who does late night streams usually running from 10:30 PM - 4:30 AM, on my schedule page it doesn't show the game cover for games on previous broadcasts because the sliver of time the stream starts before the end of a day is too small to fit a cover in. But for scheduled upcoming streams, it does show the game cover, but on the next line. Something to make sure game covers appear at all times would be huge. I also think this should be an easy fix for Past Broadcasts since the broadcast has already ended, the confusion on if the stream started last night or early this morning isn't really important since the stream already ended, as opposed to making sure the information is clear for when someone can catch an upcoming stream.

This is just a small inconvenience however can make a difference to some streamers. I myself custom design my own panels and struggle to find a nice layout due to the fact that If you view the about section directly it looks totally different then how it is accessed from the live stream chat. I think streamers should have the option to modify our panels to each device and page it is accessed on. For example, We should have the option to Modify how it would look like on the phone, or pc, or the multiple ways it can be accessed.

So at the moment the user goes to the channel and sees:

Home
About
Schedule
Videos
Chat

User clicks on chat and sees Chat and also the offline image uploaded by the streamer. Slightly confusing if the streamer has put info about their stream on the image, but that can be adjusted.

What appears below the offline image is recent broadcasts, but when they are live the panels appear but you lose the tabs mentioned above. This is completely confusing! The flow does not give a good user experience.

I personally like the LIVE look. You see the panels but you also see the About and socials section. It's nice.

The offline look with recent broadcasts is inconsistent.

Also losing the tabs when on the 'chat' page or the 'live' page is confusing.

Suggestion:

Show the tabs always and remove 'recent broadcasts' from the 'chat' offline page, because they are duplicated in 'videos'.
