Twitch live streaming

Restream to Twitch without leaning on your encoder

Twitch is often the primary live destination for creators, esports teams and always-on community channels. Stream Repeater lets you keep Twitch in the mix while also reaching YouTube, Facebook, Kick, Vimeo or private delivery workflows from the same inbound stream — be everywhere your audience already is.

Why bother pairing Stream Repeater with Twitch?

Send one feed to Stream Repeater and push a monitored Twitch relay alongside every other destination.

One upload for every audience

Publish once from OBS, vMix or a hardware encoder. Stream Repeater handles the Twitch relay server-side, so adding more destinations never multiplies your local upload load.

Cleaner operations for live teams

Keep Twitch status, relay health, throughput and restart history visible in the same calm dashboard as your other platforms — no "wait, is it still live?" panic.

More resilient live shows

Automatic relay supervision restarts failed outbound processes with backoff, helping your Twitch stream recover without manual server work.
