    I know some people have been quick to hate on Twitch for this update with transcoding saying that they are lazy for putting the "fix" for better streams on us and our hardware instead of fixing it themselves. However, I am with Harris that this new update is a GODSEND not only for streamers who just want better quality streams, but the fact that Twitch will no-longer have to pay for their own transcoding servers which in turn could lead to higher payouts to Twitch Affiliates and Partners.
    Yes, you will need a better PC in order to take advantage of this, but I would be willing to bet that 90% of all streamers right now have a PC with a Nvidia GPU that's a 2060 or higher which in this case would be enough to take advantage of this new update.
    Great video as always Man and I am excited for the future of Twitch!
    P.S. I also am very sorry to hear about all the layoffs today from Twitch and I hope for the absolute best to all the people who lost their place of employment this morning. I have a strong feeling this is also another measure being taken to potentially raise that 50/50 current split. Only time will tell.

    • @estebangardila
      @estebangardila Před 5 měsíci +1

      I wanna be optimistic about all of these announcements. Like, I really want to... but it's impossible to not bring some counter arguments:
      Twitch's owner is the absolute king in web services and servers and stuff. So how is it possible they're not capable of doing the investment on servers that allow transcoding for everyone and the adoption of new (old because AV1 exists since 2018) tech?
      I can guarantee you that if you look outside the US, there's A LOT of folks streaming from their 1650s, 1080s and the like which don't have access to AV1. Heck, even the 3000 series cards don't have AV1 encoding, only decoding. Those folks like me will have to use only HEVC.
      It boggles my mind that people are already alienating themselves into thinking this has a direct relation or will surely increase the split payouts and balance. Can we be optimistic and think this could happen? Sure. But people are already assuming it will be that way and that is just not true. And that's without considering the layoffs that just happened.
      This is a godsend for the top streamers that can afford the hardware and the internet or even already have them. For the smaller/non-partnered streamers, they'll have to pay up to get the benefits of most of this stuff. If you're an affiliate that for some reason has fiber and a 4000 series cards, great on you because you won't have to depend on Twitch's system of transcoding for non-partners but I'm pretty sure that's an exception.

  • @OctagonalSquare
    @OctagonalSquare Před 5 měsíci

    This is cool from a tech side. It does mean you just need more processing power to even stream 720p now as you have to transcode as well, and you’ll need more bandwidth to transmit 3-5 video streams at once.
    Think of it this way: if you were streaming 1080p, you’ll now also be streaming a 720p and 480p video. Before compression, that is a 60% increase in data as you’re adding a few million extra pixels. Once you add in 4k, it’s going to be a lot of bandwidth and processing.
    Now, it’s not likely to cause issues unless you were at the absolute limits of your rig and internet bandwidth, but it could significantly effect a lot of small streamers who don’t have the money for an upgrade

      Yes, it will take more system resources. Since the encoding is primarily a video card thing, one option for single PC setups could be a secondary video card to handle encoding plus a few other system things so the primary can focus on gaming. I really, REALLY hope each of Nvidia, AMD, and Intel roll out single slot cards geared towards the encoding end of things so we can have more options for how to build rigs.

    In a way, this new change could also bring back dual PC setups and make them more prominent once more. What I mean with that is if you stream something that's intensive, like VR, for example, I'm not sure that the GPU on the PC will be able to run the VR system, Encode the data and then transcode it. But, if you did stream using a dual setup, the secondary PC could be used to encode and transcode the system easily without affecting the Streamer. I'm saying this without knowing much yet on how much transcoding will affect the GPU, but I doubt that it would be something that can be ignored easily

    Correct me if im wrong, but by the way you explained this, if the transcoding is being done streamer side. Won't you need a absolutely massive ISP Upload? And by extension, this will only reward twitch and streamers who already make money & punish streamers with low to zero viewerships.
    You practically go from upload streaming 1 resolution to twitch, to restreaming 5 resolutions to twitch simultaneously.

      If your upload is only 25mb, you wont be able to do everything with the remaining 7,000 bitrate. This is in no way a good thing. Twitch is not doing this to improve the experience, they are doing it to cut costs. Falls right in line with them cutting 500 staff.

Adding a secondary card, like the 380, is way cheaper than a 40series card and would in theory give the same benefits, as long asa the OBS software isent locked to Nvidia.

    i feel like this will be a multi-year process to get to the point twitch wants to start passing savings onto streamers
    1. all streamers will need access to it, non beta
    2. there will need to be a lot of generations of cards with this ability on the market with differing price points (ideally one 3 years old)
    3. after 1 and 2 twitch will need to go through a transcoder phase out process before re-evaluating their costs
    4. twitch might be incentived only to offer the bigger split to those using local transcoding preventing all streamers from getting better splits (only those with enough capital to buy good enough components to build a computer that can game, stream, and transcode)
    Great move by twitch, long time off actually seeing money and if they dont wana share it with streamers, they can easily just remove Dan and find a new CEO who didnt promise that.

    What? I always can set any quality on any stream. Will this be removed? That would kinda kill a lot of twitch for me as I won't use 1080p to stream over mobile to my phone while outside... I see why they would want to motivate people to do the encoding... but I don't think this will happen. Let's ask him when he streams! :)

    So, here's an issue I just now realised I'm going to have.. dual PC streaming.
    I run a 3080ti in my gaming rig and a 1080ti in my streaming rig. As twitch was doing all the encoding, my 1080ti was only sending video. I wonder have I inadvertently crippled myself amd should I upgrade to a 40 series card in the streaming rig

    So how many small streamers can afford a 30 series or 40 series to help twitch look better and save money?I stream to CZcams with a GTX 1650 no problem at 1080p 60fps and they do not use my gpu so they pay less.....But like always no one thinks of small streamers. Funny thing is I had my FIRST stream on Twitch yesterday and how will this now affect my small GTX 1650?Will I be ok or should I just end streaming on Twitch???

  • @bryanthaboi

    Certainly a bummer that it's Nvidia only. Last gen AMF encoders came leaps and bounds closer to nvenc last year and their new AV1 is phenomenal. Yet another walled garden move from Nvidia.
    That aside, really glad Twitch is finally improving!

    This might be a legitimately stupid question, but won't this also make the system requirements for the streamer higher? Won't we need better systems to continue to put out the same quality? Or will this not actually impact our end that hard?
    If we push our system to the edge now, will this be the straw that breaks it?

    I can finally use my AV1 encoder on my RTX 4090 woohoo. CZcams is the only livestream service that allow to 4k and av1. I will say even tho 4k is allowed yt and soon twitch i would probably stick to 1440p 60fps using AV1 hopefully twitch will allow higher bitrate wirh transcoding cost coming down ibhate that 6,000 kbps is recommended and 8,000,kpbs is the capp after that stream will buffer allowing up to atleast 15,000kbps would be nice
    For those wandering about AV1 encoder, nvidia did announce 4070 super and 4080 super will come with AV1 4070 being $500 and 4080 being $1000 or less still cheaper then 4090
    Of course, if u need a lower bidget card, the intel arc has some for cheap. idk if AMD does yet, tho

    @gr33dy_ph4nt0m Před 5 měsíci +2

    Before I say what I’m about to say, I believe that you should almost exclusively use Nvidia over AMD when it comes to any kind of live encoding. With that said, Harris saying that the 40 series GPUs are the only ones that use AV1 is just not true. Both AMD 7000 series and Intel discrete GPUs are able to take advantage of AV1. Now if he is talking specifically about AV1 in the case of this twitch and Nvidia collaboration tech, then I can’t say if he’s necessarily wrong.

    i don't understand the problem with the layoffs, it's 35% of people who worked at twitch but that is a first step to cutting costs, twitter fired a lot of people too, but it is still working.
    Also i was thinking of a way twitch could heavily optimize streams. What if twitch did fake streams? 99% of streamers only have 1 viewer which is themselves. You could optimize this heavily. Don't send the stream to twitch if no one is watching and do like a ping every minute to use as thumbnail + to see if the stream is running fine. If one person is watching the stream, don't load it until they press the play button and if it is in the background with the sound on only send the sound. This way only people who have viewers will use bandwith.
