影音直播平台 Twitch 今（21）日在美國拉斯維加斯舉行 TwitchCon 嘉年華，活動中宣布解禁實況主在其他平台「同步直播」（simulcast）的限制。

We’ve announced that you can simulcast on ANY live streaming service!

在限制解禁後，Twitch 官方同步直播指南規定在圖奇上播放的視訊影像大小和圖像品質，必須等於或高於其他平台。實況主不得在視訊或聊天室中，使用連結刻意將流量導向其他平台。

最後，Twitch 也明文規定不能在同步直播期間，使用結合第三方服務的活動或是功能，像是合併聊天室，藉此確保 Twitch 社群徹底融入實況體驗中。

不少人得知「同步直播」解禁皆相當樂見，但未能合併聊天室等條件卻讓部份網友及創作者有些不解，認為該條例根本不用存在，引起使用者之間的議論。

You were SO close to getting this right. But you need to take another look at those terms, not being able to combine chat is literally fracturing the conversation, just let people create how they want and let viewers watch how they want, none of us have the time or energy to…

Wait actually why have the third part there?
Not allowed to merge the communities in the Livestream by having like a combined chat on screen will make ANY simulcasting into a really bad experience

A W but it still has the L in there
Sad 🐢

I like it but at the same time the third rule does not need to be there. I want everyone on their respective platforms to be able to see what everyone is talking about. That third rule does not help with inclusiveness.

Sooooooo, they expect you to separate all interactions on twitch from other platforms, have 2 separate chats up simultaneously instead of 1 unified chat, and not grow your following synonymously between the platforms you are live on…. Sooooo basically with these guidelines it…

除上述新規定之外，Twitch 也宣布連動實況的名稱為「Stream Together」。此系統能夠讓最多 6 名實況主合作直播。官方指出目前有 15 萬位直播主加入版本測試，預計今年稍晚會開放給所有人使用。
