Twitch is a live streaming video platform that is used to live stream and watch people playing video games.&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tm7\">As surprising as this may sound, there are millions of people who enjoy watching these games.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">So what\u2019s the deal with this streaming site? Why is it so popular? Well, for viewers, Twitch offers a kind of entertainment not readily provided elsewhere. Instead of watching Sunday Night Football, people sit around and watch people play the latest Madden video game. As for the gamers, the website opens up their doors to lucrative opportunities that can easily rival those of professional athletes. We&#8217;re talking millions of dollars. Some of the most popular pro gamers who broadcast their games get paid by sponsors and followed religiously by hundreds of thousands of people on social media. This is all very<\/span><span class=\"tm7\">&nbsp;unexpected for anyone who used to sit around playing video games all day.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">If you want to watch the hottest video game tournaments live or get a shot at internet stardom at Twitch, here&#8217;s what you need to know:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"tm6 Normal wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-first-create-a-twitch-account\">First, create a Twitch account<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">Before you get to take part in all the action, you have to sign up for a free account at Twitch. Having an account lets you interact with other users, create your own videos, follow your favorite streams, and more.<\/span><span class=\"tm7\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">If you\u2019re planning on uploading content on Twitch when you sign up, go to the Twitch settings &gt; \u201cChannel and Videos\u201d tab and then check the \u201cAutomatically archive my broadcasts\u201d box. While doing so won\u2019t save old streams forever, they will be stored on your channel for the next two weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"tm6 Normal wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-next-select-a-platform\">Next, select a platform<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">Now, the fun is about to begin! Before everything else, though, you have to decide what streaming platform you\u2019ll be broadcasting from: a XBox One, a PlayStation 4, or your PC. In general, you\u2019ll have no problem streaming games directly from a PlayStation or Xbox game consoles, but you may need additional software when you broadcast from a computer. Here&#8217;s how to stream from each console:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"tm6 Normal wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-twitch-streaming-from-xbox-one\">Twitch streaming from Xbox One<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"h-here-s-what-you-need\"><span class=\"tm9\">Here&#8217;s What You Need:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">Xbox One (duh.)<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">An Xbox One Kinect camera<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">Xbox One controller<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a stable Internet connection<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><span class=\"tm7\">Sign into your Microsoft account.<\/span><\/li><li><span class=\"tm7\">Download the Twitch app from the Xbox Live store.<\/span><\/li><li><span class=\"tm7\">Install the app.<\/span><\/li><li><span class=\"tm7\">Open the app and click on \u201cBroadcast\u201d.<\/span><\/li><li><span class=\"tm7\">Once a 6-digit code appears on the screen, enter it at Twitch\u2019s website to activate the device.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">As you are about to broadcast your game, set Xbox\u2019s privacy setting to \u201cAdult\u201d first. Do this by going to Xbox settings &gt; clicking on \u201cPrivacy &amp; online safety\u201d &gt; and then selecting the \u201cAdult default\u201d option. Also, in the &#8220;Preferences&#8221; section on the settings, make sure the \u201cAllow broadcasts and Game DVR uploads\u201d option is enabled.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">When you\u2019re ready to broadcast, open the game you want to play and then say \u201cXbox broadcast\u201d. To stop it, use the voice command \u201cXbox stop broadcast\u201d. It\u2019s that easy.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"tm6 Normal wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-twitch-streaming-from-playstation-4\">Twitch streaming from PlayStation 4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"h-what-you-need\"><span class=\"tm9\">What You Need:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a PlayStation 4 (duh.)<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a PlayStation 4 camera<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a DualShock 4 controller<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a stable Internet<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Log into your account.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Select \u201cBroadcast Gameplay\u201d &gt; \u201cTwitch\u201d &gt; \u201cGo to the Twitch website\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Log into your account.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em>Press the \u2018Share\u2019 button on the controller as you play a game to start broadcasting.<\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">That\u2019s how you set up initially. To begin the actual broadcast, press the Share button, select \u201cBroadcast Gameplay\u201d, then \u201cTwitch\u201d and finally click \u201cStart Broadcast\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"tm6 Normal wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-streaming-from-a-pc\">Streaming from a PC<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">Before you begin, you need to know that streaming a PC game isn\u2019t as easy as it is with the consoles. It&#8217;s also important to know that not every computer is capable of handling a live stream.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">In some cases, you\u2019ll have to consider getting a hardware upgrade (even purchase additional software) to produce a good stream quality. However, before we go any further, let\u2019s go over the basics:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"h-what-you-need-1\"><span class=\"tm9\">What You Need:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a capable computer processor (e.g. 2<\/span><sup><span class=\"tm7\">nd<\/span><\/sup><span class=\"tm7\"> generation Intel Core i5 or i7)<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">4GB of RAM<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a powerful graphics card (Radeon or GeForce with support for DirectX 10.1)<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a decent camera<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a headphone with built-in microphone<\/span><\/li><li class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">a stable Internet<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">To begin, you need to install a broadcasting app on your computer. For beginners who can\u2019t afford to buy a new software at the moment, the only option may be to set up the free <\/span><em><span class=\"tm10\">Open Broadcast Software <\/span><\/em><span class=\"tm7\">(commonly known as OBS), which is readily available on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Once you\u2019re done installing, here the next steps:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em>Log into Twitch.<\/em><\/li><li><em>Go to Dashboard from the drop-down menu (top-right section).<\/em><\/li><li><em>Search and select a game you\u2019re about to play on the \u201cPlaying\u201d tab.<\/em><\/li><li><em>Enter a name for your broadcast.<\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">After this initial setup of your Twitch account, next part of the process is to configure the stream on OBS. Here are the steps:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Right-click OBS, select \u201cRun as Administrator\u201d so you can use the \u2018Game Capture\u2019 function.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Select \u201cBroadcast Settings\u201d from the settings menu.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Choose \u201cTwitch\u201d as your streaming service and click \u201cOptimize\u201d (bottom-left of the menu).<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Go to the Twitch dashboard and choose \u201cStream Key\u201d. <\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Follow the subsequent prompts to get the special streaming code.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Copy-paste the code into the Streak Key box. Click \u2018OK\u2019.<\/span><\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">Now the last part of the process is going live. To do this, follow these procedures:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Right-click the \u201cSources\u201d box on the main OBS interface. Choose Add &gt; Game Capture.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Choose the game you\u2019re playing from the drop-down menu. Click OK.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Right-click the Sources box to add any additional feeds. At this stage, you may add images and text to customize your stream layout, use Monitor Capture to show your display or choose \u201cVideo Capture\u201d to use any installed or built-in webcam.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">Go to Preview Stream &gt; Edit Scene to change how you want your stream to look like.<\/span><\/em><\/li><li><em><span class=\"tm7\">You can finally go live by clicking \u201cStart Streaming\u201d on the OBS dashboard.<\/span><\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">An alternative to the complex OBS is the <\/span><em><span class=\"tm10\">XSplit Gamecaster<\/span><\/em><span class=\"tm10\">, which is easier to use. However, unlike the OBS that\u2019s an open source software (meaning free), the <\/span><em><span class=\"tm10\">Gamecaster<\/span><\/em><span class=\"tm10\"> broadcast software requires a paid subscription for you to use some of its better features. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"tm6 Normal\"><span class=\"tm7\">The truth is that game streaming is slowly becoming a huge part of the internet. That\u2019s exactly why <\/span><u><a href=\"http:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/amazons-970-million-purchase-of-twitch-makes-so-much-sense-now-its-all-about-the-cloud-2016-3\"><span class=\"tm11\">Amazon spent enormous sums to acquire Twitch<\/span><\/a><\/u><span class=\"tm7\"> in the first place. If you\u2019re curious why so many people are watching and broadcasting their games on the site, there may be no better way to find out the answer than to visit the site itself. Just don\u2019t do it while you\u2019re at work.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitch is a live streaming video platform that is used to live stream and watch people playing video games.
