    Has anyone tried the live streaming yet?

    If so, any issues/faults or are you happy with it?


    You can also post a link here if you are live streaming, I'm sure a few of us would like to check out your mad skillz :pac:

    I've been look around menu's and stuff but haven't actually found out how to do it. Can anyone explain where you go/what you do in order to start streaming? I know it streams through youtube but thats about all I know.

    Seems you can only live stream league play and you need a minimum of 1.5mb upload speed otherwise you can't do it.

    Minimum of 1.5mb isn't too bad... I think you need a minimum amout of viewers too or else it won't work (not sure about this, I stand to be corrected).

    i use xplit broadcaster to stream live to twitch.tv
    what i find very new/strange is i hooked my tritons up to the laptop so i could talk to the viewers and it let me still chat to everyone ingame also even though i had no head set plugged into the xbox/ hd pvr. i wont complain it saves me a pile of hassel!

    When I went to try it myself it wouldn't allow me to do it as my upload speed is less than that but it also said that your stream may be turned off after 30 mins to allow other users to stream.

    For the chap above if you go into league play the option is definitely there to stream.

    What? 1.5 up is pretty damn high, a lot of Eircom connections can't carry that speed.

    Actually, all them can't. Highest eircom provides is .768mb

    Ahhh was gonna give this a go, but apparently you need a minimum of 10 viewers to go live... kind of retarded imo. Would like to see how it effects the system.

    same here, ten people is alot when your not whiteboy/woody etc lol.
    i found it only gives you a few mins to get those 10 viewers. thats not alot of time to tweet or text people about it.

    Was using it the other day and the quality wasn't great but that's expected for a free service,true about the number of viewers.

    Also fuck Youtube streaming.
    Twitch ftw
