Quote:Next turn will probably be about 8-9am (GMT) tomorrow (if we don't get any pauses). I've tried to do a Google hangout watching Seven play and my machine (or connection) wasn't up to it - so I doubt it will cope with streaming itself. Is Twitch less processor- or connection-heavy than a hangout?
It is both, depending on the resolution of the game. if you are going to try and stream 1920*1080, you're going to have a very bad time unless you have a 10MB/s upload speed IMO (you also need good upload due to in game lag). I play and stream at 1048*768 though, and I can do that on a line that has little more than a 1MB/s upload, with a 4670 core i5 processor. I can actually play and encode anything up to the full 1080p resolution, I just can't upload it fast enough to not drop frames.
