Hi in this tutorial we're going to look at
how to stream to Twitch using your Webcaster X2
Now the default settings on Webcaster is to
stream using the standard HD settings that
Twitch specifies so that would be
1280x720p 30 fps and 2 Mbps
Now you can change that in the Preferences
in your Webcaster and I'll show you how to do that.
You just need a mouse and a monitor connected
to make changes to the Preferences settings.
The first thing you're gonna want to do is
choose a platform.
Of course there's Facebook, YouTube, Twitch,
or AV Studio.
There's multiple platforms so the first thing
we're gonna do is choose a platform.
Now there's two ways to do that you can just
click on the multi-function power button and
you'll cycle through the different platforms
or you can choose using your mouse and connected
monitor.
So I'm just gonna change views so you can
see that.
Okay so you can see that AV Studio is the
selected platform it really
Webcaster just  remembers whatever
 you had selected previously.
So all I'm gonna do is I'm going to click
up here in the corner and get the welcome
page back so that I can choose a platform
and just click on Twitch.
Now you see here this is the IP address of
this actual Webcaster unit and I'm gonna want
to take this IP address and put it in to a
web browser and that's where I'm going to
be inserting my stream key that I'm going
to get from Twitch.
So if you weren't seeing this I'll just right
click to make that go away you could always
click on this Pairing code button right there
and it's going to come up again.
So once you have the IP address of your Webcaster
whether you got it from the front screen on
Webcaster or from your connected monitor you're
gonna want to now put that in to your web
browser and go to that pairing page.
So I'll just change views again.
Now here's where I have a tab open on my web
browser and you can see right here that I've
typed in the IP address that appears on the
front screen of Webcaster.
I can type it in as HTTP:// and then the IP
address you know you don't always have to
type in the whole URL in to your web browser.
I'm gonna want to now copy and paste the stream
key from my Twitch account in to this pairing
page and here's where you're gonna want to
enter your Twitch stream key.
So all you need to do is go to your dashboard
in your Twitch account and under Settings
here under Channel I already have selected
the page that has the stream key and okay once
you click Show Key you've got this message
pop up that is asking you to confirm that
you know the risks of sharing your stream
key I'm just going to click I understand because
I am gonna change this stream key as soon
as I finish this recording so I've just copied
that now and I'm going to go back to my Webcaster
paring page and I'm gonna paste it in
right there and click submit.
And that's it now my Webcaster is paired with
my Twitch account.
Very simple now if you wanted to change the
default settings you could certainly do that
and stream at a higher bit rate and a different
frame rate all you need to do is go back in
to Preferences
just click on Preferences and here you can
change the Encoding resolution
that's the default so I can change it 
to 1920x1080 if I wanted to
I could also change the Video
bit rate right now it's at 2000 kbps and there
and there are some other settings here too as well the
one that is interesting here is for the Twitch
Details if we just select that this is the
streaming servers by default we have it set
to Auto select and you can choose one that's
closer to your area we're just gonna leave
that at Auto select and again you could also
manually put in your stream key here if you
wanted to use either the pop up keyboard to
type it in manually but you can see how that's
a pretty lengthy number to try to be trying
in it's so much easier doing it using the
web browser
I'll just right click to get out
of there now of course you could stop streaming
by clicking this button right here or you
could press the multi-function power button
on Webcaster itself the other way you could
do it is if you had a keyboard attached to
your Webcaster you could hit the space bar
and it would stop streaming as well
and
if you want to unpair we probably
should stop streaming first
you just click here and Yes we want to unpair
and that's it it's really
very simple to stream to your Twitch account
using Webcaster X2
