  1. Twitch should remove game categories where the game doesn't have a license that explicitly allow streaming of all assets (including in-game music).

    This will make it much easier for streamers to know if a game is safe for streaming and put pressure on the game creators and publishers to have such a license.

  2. It would be a win-win situation for everyone involved if we could buy the music we listen to in streams directly on Amazon. Why can't you just display a buy button for music played on Twitch?

    If I listen to something on Twitch, I can't buy it because I don't know the name of the track and the artist and in the chat questions often get lost. You hardly get any information on video requests anyway.

    I buy more and more music on Amazon. Amazon now has a large selection of even very small labels. I don't understand why Twitch…

  3. Una aplicación que permita a los viewers activar la canción que quiere el streamer que se escuche pero que en la repetición no quede grabada y solo se oiga la transmisión

  4. What is the directive for game ost? I had some of my VoD muted because of the game ost I was playing.

    I can undestand when it is a third party song, but a voiceless game soundtrack?

  5. Request that streamers confirm they have read their DMCA strike notification emails. Streamer's inboxes, right? Too many instances of that first notification being missed (and the next two can come in super-quick succession). If they don't reply, spam them or ping them when they access the platform - it's in their interests!

    Yes, it's up to streamers to read important emails from Twitch but at its best, technology can help us live better lives.

  7. It seems that the motivation behind the RIAA et al. sending these notices is that they think people are going to watch these streams to listen to music, instead of buying it or listening to it on existing music streaming services. Which is obviously silly, but it made me think that linking back to the official license holder's store or a way to purchase/listen to their music as it comes up in a stream may pacify them. So people who take this option when streaming would be allowed to play music as long as links came automatically in chat, and…

  8. Separate in-game audio, streamer voice, and music into different audio channels. Viewers that link their music service (as long as they have an active subscription) of choice to their Twitch account can have access to listen to the streamer's music audio channel. Those without a verified link to a music streaming service they subscribe to would be limited to only in-game audio, streamer voice, and copyright free music. You could use it to promote Amazon Music, and also partner with other music streaming services.

  9. Voila ça fait un moment que je vois beaucoup de streameur justifier le fait de passer l’accès de la rediffusion de leur live uniquement a leur abonné a cause du robot qui strike leur vidéo

    Ils expliquent que ce robot ne passe que sur les rediffusion public et que donc, de ce fait ils sont obligé de restreindre leur accès pour éviter de se faire attraper par le robot en cas de DMCA

    Et forcément quand tu commence a avoir une dizaine de streameur qui utilise cette pratique, tes capacité de rester sur Twitch baisse car l'abonnement a chaque chaîne…

  10. To assist manual reviewing of Clips by reducing their total number, a filter that selects just Clips below a specified view threshold for their subsequent select-all and delete-all.

    Apologies if this already exists - I wouldn't know bcs I'm an editor, not a streamer (but I did upvote the idea that suggested editors should manage Clips on behalf of streamers).

  11. The idea is simple, a place where artists who own their material and copyright can submit their music into a catalogue. This will give streamers safe music to use, while potentially giving exposer to new and otherwise undiscovered artists.

  12. With the issue of DMCA being a bigger issue now than it was years ago, content creators on Twitch are getting more up in arms about how Twitch is handling the entire situation. There are several ways that Twitch could have handled the massive batch DMCA claims they have gotten, but there is no way of going back and fixing that now, so here are some steps Twitch can currently implement to better handle incoming and currently outstanding DMCA claims.

    When a DMCA claim is made, the content creator should get an email with which highlight, VoD, or clip was…

  13. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/17/512 Twitch needs to look at the actual letter of the law and unless the person doing the strike does everything as required in paragraph section C. Paragraph 3, Subsection A, no strike is valid or legal as ruled by US Ninth Circuit Court in Lenz v. Universal Music Corp resolved on September 14, 2015

  14. Can we have an API to pro-actively check music against the detection algorithm to know ahead of time if we should use it or not? I feel pretty blind when it comes to playing custom tracks for Beat Saber for example. If I could pre-screen the music through the algorithm first, that could be handy. Allowing me to sort it into "streamable" and "non-streamable".

  15. I would like to get all of the streaming platforms, some big name streamers from each, some partners, some affiliates, and some just starting to stream, and then get them together with Record Labels, some of their artists who are both for and against us using their songs in online streaming, and a panel of congress men and women to sit down discuss the Copyright and DMCA Laws, and then work together to Change it to benefit everyone.

    It's time we sit down and discuss this matter to ensure that things like playing music on a video game stream, is…

  16. Create a database of commonly struck games that links with Game library on the dashboard. Then have a warning that displays when a streamer changes category to a game that is commonly struck by the game's (or music creator's) rights holder(s) so a streamer is aware and ready to deal action AFTER or make plans before.

  17. The games I stream (Fallout 4/Fallout 76) have in-game radio stations, and these seem to be getting flagged; I imagine Bioshock and Grand Theft Auto would face the same problem. Can we have some clarification on how music that comes in a game is being handled? I don't have external music in any of my streams (unless I'm singing along with the in-game radio).

  18. Twitch has become a lifeline for many streamers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, in particular club and mobile DJs whose only source of income has been cut off in recent months. Therefore, it is essential that streaming services like Twitch remain a viable outlet for music users, while providing fair compensation to songwriters, recording artists, and record labels.

    Unfortunately, U.S. copyright law is still vastly out of touch within the marketplace for independent DJs, many of whom make little or no income from their online broadcasts. This certainly presents a unique challenge in the case of Twitch. DJs either run…

  19. Twitch should hire/contract out some of their own content creators to develop music and sounds that are twitch owned so people can pull from those resources without penalty. This way you provide raw resources for old and newcomer streamer's content, while giving back to the community with work.

  20. How about making a tool where we're able to link a music streaming platform (Pandora, spotify, SoundCloud) to our twitch.

    Maybe you guys can find a license agreement where by having a paid account with the music platform and linking the two, we might be allowed to play music on stream. Maybe with a volume limit.

    Perhaps a tool where we can play music from that does not get recorded on the VOD or clips. Kinda like a 2 track system where 1 is left out of the final mix.
