Describe your streaming setup. Do you stream fullscreen Direct3D games on your PC? Do you use a capture device taking in console input? Do you simply use Procaster to capture emulators?: I use a Streaming program currently in Beta called XSplit Broadcaster, which gives a pretty good interface that allows me to control exactly what is being streamed, whether its even on my screen or not. It allows allows me to feed directly to streams such as livestream, just.in tv, whatever.

Previous streaming experience, if applicable (please be thorough!): Most of my streaming has been to show close friends bad games, so they don't have to play them themselves. To date this has included Dragon Age 2: Fuck You Anders Edition, Two Worlds, Fun to play but boring to watch games like X3, Fate of the World, and Settlers 6 and 7, and the occasional bit of The Old Republic with my co-op partner when we cant see each others' story bits.

Link to stream sample (do a test stream with some bros and save it to your LiveStream channel):Question about this next post

Why do you want to be a streamer?: To do something different
Why do you want to stream here, specifically: I started watching thanks to Vidya Wrestling, and I think it would be great to be a part of something so awesome, even if only vaguely

I've figured out how to put my past broadcasts in the auto-pilot, but I'm trying to figure out how to make them on-demand. If I need to have an authenticated account to do this then I might have to remove some clips from the queue until this application process is over

I noticed there was some audio skipping in the KoA video. Think you could dink around in the settings a bit more?

Also, I don't suggest streaming PC games with screencap mode. I find that capping the Direct3D in fullscreen is a bit more stable, but if you can make it work, then so be it.

I don't suggest it either, which is why I don't plan on doing it much. The MMX one is a better example of my streaming set-up, I was simply trying to find something to do for the poor people in chat who had been watching nothing but autopilot for who knows how long. (Which happens often)

The continuing saga of me getting both better at Ghouls and Ghosts and streaming quality in general
