I apologize for the sus stream last night. YouTube was having traffic issues or something, saying it wasn't receiving enough data (I have 40Mbps up) so I had to stream solely on Twitch. I'll reboot all my equipment and check some more settings for the next stream. I care too much about the visual quality of my streams. I'll figure something out. Maybe switch to 1080p instead of 1440p and lower the bitrate on YouTube.

You may have noticed I've been streaming on Twitch again. I've been using a plugin for OBS Studio that lets me broadcast to multiple platforms at the same time and it's been working very well. I've cleaned out more of the old vods from Twitch, and everything from Twitch I want to save has already been moved to YouTube. Streaming to both platforms allows me to give a lower quality stream to Twitch (900p @ 60fps) without sacrificing the visual quality on YouTube (1080p+ @ 60fps). Months earlier, I would stream solely on Twitch and export the vods to YouTube, noticing the visual quality wasn't where I wanted it to be. Not an issue anymore. Only streams that I intend to keep on Twitch would likely be rhythm game streams that might get my YouTube channel hit with copyright strikes or something, otherwise my primary focus will be here on YouTube.

Twitch doesn't want to save vods anymore because Amazon is poor. Hmmmm... Just moved into a new place. I have faster internet. Maybe it's time to ditch Twitch again.

Twitch muted the audio on a very tiny portion of Garten of Banban 2 during a jumping puzzle right before a chase scene. I did not have the foresight to locally record Garten of Banban 2, so there will be a tiny portion of the youtube video muted as well. Please understand. =\
Just got a new 4TB SSD for my streaming computer, so the crashing during streams should no longer be an issue. Please look forward to more videos.

So, just letting you guys know... I forgot to hit the local record button on OBS during a recent Twitch stream. I figured I'd just export it to YouTube and then download the vod and edit it when I run it through Vegas Pro, unfortunately YouTube video downloads look like vomit. If I give you guys the edited vod, it will be cut shorter and visually be of lesser quality than my other videos. Alternatively, I can just publish the unedited stream from Twitch here and it will be of higher quality. Obviously, I'd prefer to give you the edited video because it's more personal to me since I edited it myself like all of my other videos for Lethal Company, but the quality is so absolutely horrible that I'd rather give you the full-length uncut vod from Twitch since it's visually much better than what YouTube provided me. There are jump jokes and words used by the people I streamed with that I wouldn't use myself, (example: a player who is of specific orientation using a sus word to describe themself) language I didn't personally use, but is heard in the uncut video. That said, I've already posted a short from this session, and you may notice the short is of lesser visual quality. I may delete the short and repost the version of the short from Twitch made using Twitch's own clip maker.

Visual and Audio quality are extremely important to me, because I hold a high standard for myself and I expect it to show in my videos/streams and be better for it. The bitrate on the edited version that I pulled from YouTube's own download button is so bad, it looks like it's from 1996. It doesn't look 1080p, it doesn't look 60fps, it's pretty bad. So, I'll not be posting the edited version of Modded Lethal Company 54. I'm looking into getting new storage specifically for my local recording, because my current storage is an 8TB external HDD, and I believe it's been causing crashes while recording, editing, and rendering videos for YouTube.

Another thing I'm considering is changing my branding/socials. I play with a different group now than I did 8 years ago, and I think rebranding would help the channel. If you read this far, lemme know what you think.

Hey guys! Today (8th of August) I did a birthday stream on Twitch. I streamed for almost 9 hours. During that stream, I played Garten of Banban and Poppy Playtime, as well as NIKKE, Fallout 76, DOOM, Dave the Diver, and Doraoko Wanko! A highlight is being made on the Twitch channel so we don't lose the vod. I don't think I'll be putting this one on YouTube just because it's so huge and because I played so many games in a single sitting.

YouTube's music removal tool is flawless...
I won't have to trim out entire segments again...
If only that were true.

The second Labyrinthine video was uploaded and then claimed for the end credits music. Just snipping that out and then it'll be up for real.

Heeeey, that Lethal Company game is pretty fun.
Video incoming. Just making sure I don't get flagged over Crazy Frog or sumthin.

New video soon. Just waiting for YouTube to finish processing the video edits.
