Livestreaming to Twitch Using a Command Prompt
Fancy something different today?
Introduction
Do you have a prerecorded video that you’d like to live-stream to Twitch? Sure, there’s a bunch of tools out there that will allow you to upload prerecorded videos not only to Twitch but also to YouTube and Facebook Live, but wouldn’t you like to try doing it the old-school way?
All humour aside, this article is meant for novelty purposes only. I’m hoping that some readers will be fascinated to learn something that they might have not known of before, just like I did when I learnt this.
Step 1: Setting up your Livestream
Hopefully, if you are reading this, you might already have a Twitch account. If not, it’s fairly straightforward to sign up. After you’ve logged in, click on your profile on the top-right of the screen to bring up a dropdown. From the dropdown, click on Video Producer.
This should redirect you to the Creator Dashboard. Click on Stream Manager from the left panel and then click on Edit Stream Info from the right panel.
