Hello. Can you suggest a good streaming app for phone aside from omlet? I'm kinda new to streaming. Omlet is okay but I don't like the quality of the stream.
Hello everyone. My friends and I got together to take my D&D 5e homebrew campaign to Twitch. We are all new to the streaming game, so some of our past episodes are a little rough around the edges. Not sure if anyone hear is, or knows some people who are interested in watching D&D streams. But any helpful feedback would be awesome. We had audio issues with some of the past episodes as well, but those have been fixed, thank goodness. If anyone is interested, we stream every Friday at 8pm EST. Search GreatDisplace on YouTube for all our past episodes. Twitch.tv/greatdisplace for live streams and most past episodes. Thanks all :)
@Deleted User honestly, it is good for getting a feel for streaming. If you're streaming games and all that, definitely go to twitch. People who actively watch streams gravitate HEAVILY towards twitch.
but not yet I'm gonna try different time to stream it's gonna be very early for most of you guys but it's most comfortable time for me if I fix my sleep
Hey all! Hope everyone is well?! I'm thinking of running a giveaway when I reach affiliate as a thanks to the community - do the community like these or are they fire and forget? i.e. the community (or some of them) sign up and then drop out of your stream/follows when over? I've not ran one before but it'd be nice to payback the support
I've just finished my upgrades... Gone for an RTX 2080 was the main upgrade and switching to AMD (Ryzen) - questionable as to which is the main. Found it was difficult streaming across a sim rig and main PC but it's much more stable now
@maaliktomtom ah yeah I've heard of that. My buddy wanted me to do some booster drafts but with the lockdowns and stuff we didnt get to do any of that.
so one of my friedns is designing my twitch logos and another one of my friends popped into my chat and offered to edit myy vods into youtube videos for free cause he is bored
I’m very new to streaming and haven’t liked how twitch has streamed my console. I don’t have a capture card but am looking to get one. What’s a good 1080p device I can use for my Xbox? I’ll be getting a computer in a month or two but I mainly play Xbox now
the problem is I get lucky with shit like that but on my last stream I had only 3 people open my stream like not 3 average viewers just 3 unique viewers
@maus.mob im super late but if youre wanting to stream your xbox you can use the xbox console companion to pulll up your xbox screen on your pc(edited)
ok so I'm looking up webcams to buy... main question is on the logitechs everyone recommend 720 or 920 can you rotate them 90 degrees if put on side of monitor? or are they only able to clip on top
Phew, have not used a webcam for a while to be honest. Used to have a little one which only clips to the top. But I found that I just can put it on anything and it's okay xD
I bought c 920 however I'm using c270 for now until I get c920, I found c270 to be good enough after changing some setting as long it's not full screen, so I say any cam at 40$ and above should be good(edited)
@Shanecus thanks man! I hope so! also I overhauled my scenes and got some animated video frames yesterday! trying to step things up since I hit affiliate
5:25 PM

I think I still wanna tweak the intermission scene a bit but I am gonna go hard on this vapor wave asthetic
That makes sense lol I thought it was just flashing when I watched I didn’t put two and two together but I was focused on mcstabbins and the tiny dragons
I have been working to make it a little more subtle so that you can tell it is going to the music better but the issue is when people talk on discord it just maxes out the Db...
5:52 PM
but I also need to hear them for raid... soo... kind of a catch 22
5:52 PM
but for down time and stuff it is really noticeable is is going to the music
Yea it is always interesting trying to have discord and other stuff going. No issue at all when uploading a YouTube vid. But when talking on stream it is tricky to equalize all of them
it's all good, hit affiliate the other day so I am on the long log path to partner now. I am patient and wanna see organic growth, so from here it is just about making solid content consistently at a steady pace and build my brand
6:57 PM
might start a little later tonight btw, having some issues with the keyboard cam atm... need to troubleshoot
@TenderSausage most of them are just modified free resources. I am getting better with photoshop but not amazing yet so I haven't dipped in making my own resources full on, but I am doing all my own emotes, sub badges and stuff. the animated frames are actually the free ones from cyber punk 2077 that I just tweaked
8:07 PM
I have photoshop and after effects so I can make my own stuff, just trying to hone my skills by modifying stuff for now
Good idea about pre-writing your social media blasts. I write mine just before I stream and it honestly takes an extra 30 minutes preparing everything. There has to be a better way
8:07 PM
Might just sit down one day and write out a whole bunch that I can just copy and paste.
yeah but don't just copy paste, make like a template that you modify each time
8:08 PM
like littlle differences. you want it to be memorable but it shouldn't make your page seem like a bunch of canned responses
8:08 PM
needs to feel organic even if it is a template
8:09 PM
here's my like generic raid day announcement that I just tweak.
8:09 PM
Hey Everyone! It is everyone's favorite day today... RAID DAY!! We got some hot stuff for you guys today, and by hot I mean lava... Remember to come by and check out the Wintersprings Ski Team raid of the dungeons Black Wing Lair and Molten Core! What could be better than lava and dragons??? Streaming now exclusively on Twitch - Preraid Shenanigans starts @6 PM EST and as usual we start the raid itself at 8:20 PM EST. Going to be trying to burn through my steam summer sale purchases for the preraid show this week, so that should be fun.(edited)
8:09 PM
sorry for promo in gen chat
8:11 PM
replace the generic words like "everyone" , change little details about the raid itself. try and keep the time consistent
8:11 PM
and I have different ones for like twitter, facebook, discord
Yea copywriting is a huge help to promote yourself. Also each social media platform has different hooks that sink deeper. Twitter loves video. Facebook loves memes. Insta likes pretty things. There are little tricks for each and everyone. Getting a template that works for your stream is a useful skill for sure
Thanks so much!! I really appreicate that. I have probably put in like 100 hours the past month to learning after effects and photoshop and tweaking things... im up 80 followers this month and average views went from .8 to over 4 now!!!
2:24 PM
I am just happy people are in my chat and talking. I will try to pop into your stream more, I never see you on though when I am looking for streams to watch @Shanecus is the only one on. when do you guys stream? I am in EST and usually stream late nights.
I think I am going to stick with these speciality days I have been doing i.e. horror night, bob ross show... I like doing different characters kinda for each of my streams. at some point maybe I will do a scheduled like regular stream and pick one game to do on those days as my main game. right now I am planning on that game being New World when it comes out at the end of the month. Really wanna try and solidify myself in that community
I just kinda like eh i wanna get XYZ done in Minecraft so I'mma go work on that or I want grind out XYZ in track mania so I do that I don't have set days for them but that might be an idea
Yea having a them for a day is good when you variety stream. That way they can still get a gist of what to expect. Like with Thursday being tabletop my viewers know either DND or Kids on Bikes
yeah @Shanecus your stream feel really genuine to me. like when you come in it is like watching a long time friend. you have a very like welcoming face and voice.
2:49 PM
I might come watch your dnd game sometime. I do like two games a week but not on stream cause my players don't wanna be on stream for roleplay stuff... working on doing a streamed dnd game...
2:49 PM
any of your dnd games have any spots haha? i do voices and am heavy into rp
2:50 PM
@SoulDrinker idk if grinding stuff is the best for doing on stream...
