On July 22nd 2019 (yes, pi day), Rosuav took a number of questions regarding Twitch streaming, tech stuff, and the like. The pertinent part of the VOD can be found here as a highlight. The questions came from various sources, most notably Person In The Mirror, whose idea this was in the first place.

Things were not discussed in any particular order, and other topics were raised that weren't in these questions. It was a long and rambling talk. :)

  • Mirror: Please include information about how OBS remote works, since you said that can be a potential work around if a streamer forgets to end their streaming software.
  • Discuss possible stream bot: automatically stop stream when you start hosting (a sort of molly-guard)
  • Backing up your OBS configs esp using git
  • Mirror: What exactly are view bots, why are they in my channel, & what should I do about them? For instance, should I ignore them, restrict them from earning currency, or just ban them outright.
  • Mirror: Things to consider when choosing channel bots or extensions, privacy granting issues, channel support personal & privileges they can be granted.
  • General tips: install Python 3, use git, have my shed
  • OBS features: Studio Mode, bandwidth test (show example, don't demo), Stats window (View|Stats), locking scene elements, source group, scenes as sources, Ctrl-F to Fill space
  • Streaming tools: Mustard Mine, StilleBot
  • Multiple monitors and how to make the most of them
  • Stream Deck, StreamPuppy, OBS Remote Control
  • Music selections and VOD muting

Handy links, in no particular order:
