  • I've been interested in game streaming for quite some time, so yesterday I took it upon myself to make Twitch and Hitbox accounts and start experimenting around with how to do it. Technically for me Twitch would be more efficient because my graphics card supports hardware-level direct streaming to it through NVIDIA Shadowplay, but it's still in beta and is kinda clunky...sometimes it was hard to know if I was even streaming. On the other hand, I liked using the OBS software to stream to Hitbox (it can also broadcast to Twitch)...overall I think I like Hitbox more, but I know Twitch is more popular.

    If you have an account and want to follow along, that would be awesome :)

    Also, I would appreciate any tips on getting started since I'm new to this and want to improve as a broadcaster if I can. :)

  • Hey, I know it's an old topic but what the heck...

    I was thinking of streaming Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri - Alien Crossfire tomorrow night, just wondering if anyone would be at all interested in watching / listening to my crap commentary?

    Sorry Mootles :'( Thought I had, hopefully I have properly now. :)

    I should be streaming at 22:00 GMT tonight.

    My twitch is here...

    while I do quite like how twitch works, I may consider changing to use something else depending on how it goes, last night when I was testing it worked fine for me, but seemed to keep buffering for someone else. :-\

  • Is there an easy way to stream on console? I've thought about doing a few streams but I don't have the first clue what to do.

    With Xbox One and PlayStation 4 yes, older generations and Nintendo's consoles require a capture card.

    With Xbox One, all you need is the Twitch app. Just sign in, adjust settings and when you want to stream, Snap it.
