Enhanced Broadcasting

About CloudOBS' Enhanced Broadcasting

Enhanced Broadcast has been deployed to all Cloud OBS accounts. This enables HEVC 1440p60 streaming to Twitch on Advanced Plan servers.
For all servers, non-partnered channels can get "transcoding" by using Enhanced Broadcast, too.

  • To enable EB, head to Settings -> Destinations and select a Twitch destination to use for Enhanced Broadcast.
  • If you're on an Advanced Plan server and want to stream in 1440p60, you must first head to Settings -> Video and change your Base and Output resolutions to 2560x1440, then choose your Twitch destination as Enhanced Broadcast under Settings -> Destinations

As of July 2026, having Enhanced Broadcasting enabled will prevent some other destinations from working properly, including other non-Enhanced Broadcasting enabled Twitch destinations and Kick.

This will be resolved in a future update, but for now, if you want to stream to multiple destinations, you may need to disable Enhanced Broadcasting.
