    Connection to any streaming application on Xbox

    Hi there,

    The only streaming services on the Xbox is Mixer and Twitch but the Twitch app is only limited to using the Kinect as a webcam and mic because Twitch hasn't seemed to update the app.

    On Mixer you can connect a webcam through USB and the Camera option will be selectable in the "Broadcast & capture" tab in the menu found under Advanced Settings. As far as the Microphone goes, I think it should work and be detected as you say that it works
    for party chats and most streamers use their headset mic's but give it a try in the advanced settings on Mixer and let us know if it works.

    Camera not Broadcasting on the twitch App

    ok this is an issue my son had himself and i corrected it this way. ..

    download the xbox insider app and opt in for the insider program and beta dashboards etc, update your console this way and hopefully your camera woes should disappear, its a small issue with current dashboards but hopefully this should solve it for you

    Is there any way I can record my voice while I'm recording in captures?

    Hello Cris

    Go to the Xbox game controller and turn it on. Access the Settings menu and locate the Broadcast & capture option as shown above.

    Under Broadcast settings, check the box corresponding to the mic option.

    Download and install the Twitch application from the website or App Store.

    Go back to Xbox, select Broadcast, and start streaming to twitch. You can tweak settings, like sound and microphone level, to meet your specific needs during streaming.

    Launch a game and start streaming and recording.

    You can pause the recording, download it, and share it with your fellow gamers

    Twitch Streaming

    When you stream through Xbox there is a setting in the twitch app to include party chat. But the party members have to allow their audio to be used. If you have “Party Chat” muted on the broadcast screen (it's in between “Microphone” and “Game”), or won't have the option to include audio.
