I've been using OBS to stream to twitch for a few months now and love it. Last night I noticed some strange anomalies with the software that I couldn't seem to find answers for after an extension search:
1. Tags are totally different than the last time I streamed which was last Tue. Normally when I would select a game like Starcraft from the options for a category it would fill in various tags that logically would go along with the selection like "English" "RTS" "Strategy" etc. This time around it will not fill anything in automatically and when I searched through the available options they didn't include any of these typical words to describe game genres at all like "Shooter" "RPG" and so on. This struck me as strange and I've noticed that other streamers that I normally watch are still apparently able to use these tags that are mysteriously no longer available for me.
2. When I would try to load my page on my iPhone and/or tablet (which I use as a live monitor rather than a second computer monitor) twitch would have a ton of problems loading and would either get stuck loading or give me strange error messages. Something like, "Having trouble finding rooms for this channel" which I think was effecting user's ability to chat like normal.
Does anybody have any idea why these things might happen and perhaps a solution to make OBS behave like before in regards to these two issues? Maybe there's something I'm missing? The streaming itself was working fine and I could load my twitch page on a browser with no problems. Thanks so much!
