Streaming myths are getting out of hand, every day I see a tweet, or a TikTok from some stream coach who charges 50 bucks an hour to give you advice despite never growing their own audience, and the advice they’re spouting is often just outright wrong, or misleading. I’ve been creating content as Eljay for 4 years now, and I wanted to cover five of the most common myths I see because it feels like they’re getting dangerous now, these are myths that can get you banned, stop your growth, but most importantly ruin you and your communities enjoyment. 👑 Protect Yourself From Copyright Strikes With Epidemic Sound: https://share.epidemicsound.com/StreamSchemeFEB24 👑 Check out Eljay Live Right now: http://bit.ly/eljayemtwitch 🔴 Download FREE Animated Overlays From Our Discord: https://bit.ly/FREEStreamOverlays 🔴Video Sources: 🔴Fair Use On YouTube: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9783148?hl=en&ref_topic=2778546&sjid=1834943736287696108-AP 🔴Twitch View Count And How It Works: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/understanding-viewer-count-vs-users-in-chat?language=en_US#count 🔴Please Support Zach Bussey for working tirelessly to correct rumors: https://twitter.com/zachbussey 🔴Shout out to Kurtis Conner as my example for fair use. 🔴YouTube's Official Education Channels: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpghnKjBBG8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1jDk_2Yeno How To Grow On Twitch? If you want to grow your Twitch stream, it is important to be critical. Being critical isn’t a bad thing, people say, “Oh don’t be so critical of yourself!”. But there are a lot of things you can control and improve, such as your visuals, audio, and most importantly your content that you’re creating. Watch back your VoD and be honest with yourself, is it up to scratch. Does your mic sound good? Are you engaging? Is it easy to watch and enjoy or is there something that is off-putting? Be honest, push yourself to grow, and become a better entertainer! Because at the end of the day, the only way you are going to grow your stream is by growing yourself and being critical in a positive way. 🕘Timestamps: 0:00 Streaming Myths Are Ruining Your Content 0:28 How Twitch View Count Myths Are Ruining Your Content 1:22 Busting Twitch View Count Myths! 2:40 Why Your Twitch VoDs Aren't ACTUALLY Being Watched 3:37 How Low Energy Streamers Can Still Grow 4:38 Are Sounds And Songs Safe To Use Under 7 Seconds? 6:10 Why The Twitch VoD Track Will Get You Banned 7:42 What Safe Music Can You Use On Twitch And YouTube? - Sponsored 8:30 Are You More Likely To Be Banned On Twitch? 9:50 Why Growing As A Content Creator Isn't A Mystery Anymore What Bitrate And Settings Should I Use For Streaming? The easiest way to understand bitrate is by calling what it actually is, your upload speed to the Twitch servers. Now you’ll need a higher bitrate depending on how high quality you want your stream to be, this means 1080p 60 frames per second will need a bitrate of 6000, which roughly equals 6megabits upload speed on your end being taken up By lowering your resolution and framerate, you can make it a lot easier to stream, for example, if you set your base canvas size to 1920x1080, but change your output to 1280x720 otherwise known as 720p you drop down to only needing a bitrate of 4500 or 4.5megabits. If you still want 1080, you can even just lower your framerate from 60fps to 30fps and then adjust to 4500bitrate.
