Well, the huge issue in the streaming with Twitch is that, yeah it's cool for Sanzo and Draul that they can stream in full HD etc, but if they don't have a good twitch account, we (viewers) can't change the resolution, and since I can't load a 480p video on Youtube, I obviously can't afford a 600p+ on twitch (600p+ means at least 780p+ twitch is just bad with estimations). And I am French, I know many countries don't have such "good" internet connections.
On a 600p+ stream, half (or a bit less) can't see it properly, the stream works well during 1 second, then it starts loading during 10 seconds etc etc... and when the game is finish and all comments are saying "gg", you still have 10 minutes of video to load before the end.
One day we fixed it with Aekom on B} IRC, who made his stream in 360p, everyone could see the stream, I tried to convince Sanzo to do it as well, but he refused cause he said "we can't see players' names properly in the radar".
So what's the best option, half of people can see players' names or everyone can see the stream
About streams in general, it's always better to stream with some basic in-game settings such as "textreduce -1", just because the video you are sending to Twitch is obviously multiplexed, I will not explain it here, but it's just far better like that, in any case.
