I found a post in this Reddit that asked about multi-platform streaming along with Twitch. It explained that if you are an Affiliate you're not allowed to live stream your stream on multiple platforms (because of the 24-hour rule that you cannot share your twitch content for 24 hours on any other platform). Does this 24-hour rule still apply if the layout is different (since TikTok has a vertical layout)?

I use Streamlabs OBS for my Twitch Streams, but I know I would have to pay for prime if I wanted to stream on multiple platforms. Either way, I'm looking to stream with different layouts on TikTok & Twitch. Could I run a TikTok stream on Studio OBS while running a Twitch stream on Streamlabs OBS at the same time? In the post linked above it also said I might run into problems running these two programs at once.

I've also heard of restream.io but it doesn't seem to have a TikTok function. I looked into Loola which offers TikTok streaming but its $19 a month to stream through their platform - that's a big yikes for me

Please no lectures on the morality of streaming on two platforms - I know I'd have to respond to two chats. I don't mind the challenge and I mostly want to use the live streaming feature on TikTok to guide people to my Twitch (also it would be a noice financial opportunity)!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

I'm looking forward to hearing from yall and getting the community's help.

I hope this post can help others as well.

If you want to increase your audience reach, try multistreaming to Twitch and your other favorite platforms. Multistreaming allows you to stream on Twitch and YouTube — or stream on Twitch and Facebook, or all three! — at the same time.

Restream is a super simple live video platform that empowers you to create beautiful videos and multistream them to your favorite channels. It only takes a few minutes to connect your various live streaming accounts, and Restream integrates natively with the popular encoding software OBS. You can also multistream on Twitch and your other preferred streaming platforms without any software at all, using Restream Studio.

How to multistream on Twitch with OBS

1. Log into your Restream account.

2. Select “Add channel” on your Restream dashboard.

3. Choose Twitch from the list of channels.

4. Click on Connect Twitch. You will have to sign in with your Twitch credentials and authorize Restream to use certain permissions on Twitch.

5. Repeat steps two through four for each platform you want to stream to (Facebook, YouTube, etc.)

6. Open OBS Studio.

7. Choose Settings from the bottom right corner

8. Click on the Stream tab.

9. Select Restream.io — RTMP from the dropdown menu next to Source.

10. Click Connect Account.

11. Enter your Restream account email and password in the window that opens and click Allow.

12. Click OK on the OBS Settings window to save your settings.

13. Manage your live stream with the Restream widgets that pop up in OBS Studio.

The Restream Chat window lets you see messages from every platform you’re live on.
The Multistreaming window lets you toggle which platforms to broadcast to.
The Stream Information window lets you name your Stream and select a game (if you’re streaming gameplay).

Once you’ve set up your scenes in OBS and connected your webcam and mic as sources, you’re ready to start streaming!

How to multistream on Twitch with Restream Studio

To multistream on Twitch without encoding software, repeat steps one through five from above. Then, instead of opening OBS, launch Restream Studio by clicking the Live Studio button on the left-hand sidebar of the Restream Studio dashboard. In the Studio, you can add audio and video sources, share your screen, change your screen layout, add a chat overlay, and plenty of other customization options.

The rules about multistreaming on Twitch: Twitch Affiliates are not permitted to stream any content they’ve streamed on Twitch to any other platform for at least 24 hours.

👉 Pro tip:

If you are a Twitch Affiliate, Restream can still help you out. When you go live with Restream, we save a recording of all your broadcasts in Restream Video Storage (this feature requires a paid plan, however). You can then use Restream Events to schedule a broadcast of that recording a full 24 hours after the end of your Twitch stream.
