Want to look good on camera? The big light in your studio isn't going to cut it. If you're determined to make a go of streaming and want an all-singing, all-dancing channel, you're going to have to invest in some extras.

The initial learning curve for OBS is a little on the steep side, but once you've learned its ways (which won't take too long) you'll find it to be a versatile and powerful package that's ideal for streaming to Twitch and other platforms.Īn alternative to OBS is the Windows 10-only XSplit (opens in new tab). Now, if the phrase 'open-source' rings alarm bells for you, well, your reservations aren't entirely unjustified. The most popular streaming option by far is the free and open source OBS Studio (opens in new tab) for PC, Mac and Linux. However as you gain experience you might find Twitch Studio just a little bit limiting, in which case you might be better off with a more fully-featured option. Twitch has its own free app – Twitch Studio (opens in new tab) – which is probably the easiest way to get up and running as it provides a guided setup as well as customisable templates for quickly putting together a good-looking stream. Things get a little more complicated if you're streaming from a PC or Mac as there are quite a few streaming apps to choose from.
