Hi, I am new to the community! Sorry if this has been asked, and I am adding to spam.

I was curious how to get my new stream I just started for "Dark Souls Remastered" via twitch, to appear on this site? Are there any specific requirements to stream here?

You need to have your Twitch account linked to your speedrun.com account (the current thing you have linked appears to be the wrong link). Then set the game on Twitch to whatever game you're running, and then you'll show up on the streams page.

Thanks! Just to verify, do I need to input the stream code from twitch into the text box on speedruns.com?

Canada

No, just put the link to your Twitch channel, that's all you need.

Canada

Awesome, thanks a lot. :) One last question, Dark souls remastered doesnt show up for a category on twitch. Does it just have to be the name of the stream title?

Thanks again for helping me get going!

Canada

Not sure why it doesn't exist on Twitch, I guess the remaster just doesn't exist in their database (yet?). The stream title is irrelevant.

Canada

Strange, that must be the case. Assuming if it isnt in the database it wont pop up? Thanks again for clearing that up!

I can't seem to get it to work. I run Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. I don't know what s wrong.

@GoldGamer32 Probably a combination of Twitch not distinguishing between Java Edition and Bedrock edition and your most recent Twitch videos not having Minecraft selected as the game. It's also possible the MC:BE moderators haven't set up the leaderboards to recognize any streams at all.
