Why isnt it possible to stream Discord audio to Twitch on Xbox?

because the video capture system on the Xbox console is a basic one that basically grabs the frame buffer and compresses it which is in the chain before any chat audio is

If you wish something more complicated, you're going to have to purchase additional equipment

If you are live streaming on Twitch you must use the twitch settings. When you stream on Twitch in a party everyone in that party must “include audio” for it to be heard on stream.

Hello Oxfaction,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble with streaming on Twitch with your Xbox X. There are a few possible reasons why your mic is not working properly. Here are some steps you can try to fix the issue:



- Make sure your headset is compatible with Xbox X and Twitch app.

- Check your audio settings on your Xbox X and make sure your mic is enabled and the volume is adjusted. You can do this by going to Settings > Devices & connections > Accessories > Xbox Wireless Controller > Volume.

- Check your audio settings on your Twitch app and make sure your mic is enabled and the volume is adjusted. You can do this by going to Settings > Audio > Microphone.

- Try unplugging and plugging back your headset or using a different headset to see if the problem persists.

- Restart your Xbox X and your Twitch app and try streaming again.

Hi there Billy, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

After doing some research, it seems that currently it's not possible to stream Discord audio on Twitch. The only way to achieve this is if you and your friends are in an Xbox voice group, and your friends consent to having their voices heard on the stream.

You can see that other players also indicate the same as me through the following threads:

Let's hope that in the near future it will be possible to stream Discord audio to Twitch natively, without the need for external hardware such as video capture cards.

I appreciate your understanding and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,

Thank you for your assistance.

We solved half of my problems. My audio is now streaming to twitch. However, game chat is not. Last week on I was able to stream my mics audio AND my IN GAME chat audio to twitch directly from my Xbox series S, meaning my PC and Playstation party mates audio was making it into my stream.

That is not happening now. Slightly less frustrating but still quite.
