I am trying to stream but there is black around the sides like this:

Now I my screen is 16:10 and I think that may be the problem...
How do i fix this?
 
Yep, you encountered the 16:10 in 16:9 result:

  • You can stream in 16:10 and only viewers with a 16:9 or other monitor will see black bars if they fullscreen your stream. (The small player on the twitch page will probably always show slight borders)
  • Or you can stream in 16:9, move the source to one side, and fill the black area with a graphic/text/information/follow links etc. That way on the twitch page and if you fullscreen the stream on a 16:9 monitor, there will be no black bars. If you watch it on your own monitor in fullscreen you will have the usual 16:9 bars.

One last thing, DO NOT stretch your sources, this will degrade quality and make them look awful.
