There doesn't seem to be a games-only restriction atm so you can just stream whatever I guess, for now.

yeah I was getting in the order of 2-5 seconds when I was testing it out.


Anyone "serious" about streaming is going to stick to using OBS so they can have a webcam and use chroma key with their greenscreen (I'm sure webcam is soon but chroma key might not be) but this is pretty neat I guess.

so there's no webcam support yet? no scarecams as a five nights at freddy jumps at the screen? what about audio? can someone at least scream into a microphone? i just need to hear someone scream.

yeah you can scream into a mic. I imagine their feedback is flooded with 'y u no webcum?' right now tho so expect it soon.



I sure wish 'y u no hl3' would work that well.

yeah but that just means you gotta make friends with a corrupt admin/staff to fully utilize twitch. They're literally everywhere so it's not even hard.

i knew a guy who went on to work at twitch and according to him a lot of their infrastructure is really shoddy because they had to expand a whole bunch in a short amount of time.

steam broadcast owns, as well.

I think this is just steam's answer to the new consoles having this stuff. It works super well for a first day beta thing though. Steam owns

Yeah, but now we have an alternative to Twitch that's being pushed by Valve so people may actually use it.
