In reply to a post by robertcrowther:

It would be interesting to see if an old version of Chrome has the same issue. I know a lot of people who do live streaming have stopped using Chrome as it's got freezing issues lately.

I have done the odd live stream now and then and I use Chrome on Twitch, but Edge on YouTube, the reason being is that they have worked the best for those streaming providers.

But all browsers on Twitch buffers for me on Twitch when watching streams, but after a few hows it settles down.

For live streaming I don't use any browsers a browser is only used for the chat (sometimes)
