Twitch Stream of Knack directly from PS4

So does the PS4 not stream in HD or something?

I've only used Twitch a few times before (months ago) but I could've sworn there was YouTube-like quality toggles before. I haven't seen it on any of the PS4 Twitch streams I've watched so far, they are all terrible quality.

its dependent on the broadcasters upload speed

Is there any way to incorporate the sony camera to broadcast your face as well like so many other streamers do?

The guy doing the Knack stream was using the camera to show himself during the stream. The Resogun guy didn't have the camera hooked up so nothing. It looks like the layout options are currently pretty limited but hopefully as time goes by it will become more customizable.

I don't see any way to chat via gamepad, so I'm trying not to ignore you. Still getting used to the DS4, so don't mind my suckage. Yes, my up speed sucks.

Yeah I wonder if you could use the playstation app on ios/android to do this. Seems weird you couldn't, but I guess if you have the Camera you have the mic anyway.

That was pretty cool. It took all of less than a minute to get up and running. Really impressed.
 
That Polygon jab was hilarious.

Something like: Polygon said the controller doesn't last long... We've been playing for more than 9 hours on a one hour charge.

lol

I've been watching a different Knack stream then the one in the OP. Two takeaways:

1. Knack looks all right. Nothing fantastic, but, I'm going to have fun with it.

2. The Twitch functionality built in to PS4 is super impressive! I'm sort of stunned this can be done so easily and at such high quality with nothing but the console.

Turns out you can apparently stream PS4 fullscreen and get rid of those borders. I think it takes away your webcam though. Surely Sony will give the option to have the game fullscreen and the webcam on top in a corner in a future patch for it.

They already have that. There are 3 views.

Joystiq had that view up yesterday while streaming AssCreed.
