I've been posting for some time on the Xbox One forums but haven't recieved any feedback. First off, I don't want to come off as whiny but there are some major issues that need to be addressed. I'm sure the Twitch team is possibly aware of some of these and working to fix them but I would like to make sure. Twitch was half the reason I bought an Xbox One but recently it's so flawed that it's not worth using. Anyways here are some of the major issues I've been frequently having as of late:
1. My broadcast says I'm playing "#IDARB" no matter which game I'm playing. Haven't broadcasted #IDARB in about 3 weeks.
2. The face cam option for the Kinect has recently starting screwing up. When using autozoom it will sometimes insist on being fixed at the fa upper corner of the room. No matter what you try, including restarting the app and everything, it will continue. It seems to do this on specific games for whatever reason but will sometimes randomly fix itself. The game I've noticed this the most on is Diablo 3.
3. It will often say there are 0 people watching me but there will be a couple people chatting in the chatroom. This leads me to believe the viewer counter may be glitched?
4. Not sure if it's really an Xbox One specific issue but the "archive broadcasts" feature has completely failed to archive my broadcasts on about 3 occasions now.
5. As with the last issue, I don't think this is Xbox One specific but recently all my broadcasts have been muted for copywright detection. I'm playing a video game with music in it, of course there's going to be copywrights. I'm not trying to claim it as my own and I'm not trying to make money off my broadcasts so why should it matter? I usually export my past broadcasts to Youtube and sometimes Youtube will detect 3rd party content but it doesn't mute my video. It just makes a little notation stating I can't benefit from ad revenue or whatever which I'm fine with.
6. My friend and I are subscribed to each other on twitch and favorited on our xbox accounts. It seems Xbox did away with the notifications for friends launching a broadcast which I suppose makes sense as it would annoy some people. But my friend and I often have trouble finding the other person's broadcast. It will often say we're offline when we've been broadcasting for several minutes or more.
