What is wrong with the Steam client
recently...

i have to restart steam all the time if i want to watch a broadcast...
and after a watch a few it stops working again until a restart steam...

but on my browser... its instant with no problems....

is there a setting check someone can do...

it should not be this much of a struggle...

hello Juanitta..

i dont actually want to do that...
because i have had months of no problems watching
broadcast without clearing cookies and cache.. and i
dont really install a lot of different games all the time..

and.... and... it seems to do a partial correction when
i restart steam...

and.. and... no problems watching from my browser....
browser is almost instant... like it used to be on steam....
i did the clear download cache..
lets see what does or doesnt happen

the other thing it does when not working is
it gives you the chat dialog with chat in it..
but when you click on the users it says 0
when there is hundreds or even thousands
watching as welll...
that didnt take long... loading loading loading and nothinig... again..

browser is still instant... what is wrong with this steam client..

if i log out and jump back it will work for a few broadcasts til
i go to discussion forum or here and then it goes back to not working.... terrible..
skip that....
resetting is not fixing anything today......

no accountability... why does it work in a web browser....
if someone did something just now... thank you...

its working... :btd6thumbsup:
worked for 5 minutes today... and its busted again...

doesnt make sense...
still not working...

there is nothing i am doing or not doing when it is working..

sometimes when i log out and back in it works... then it stops...

Hi.... lots of them.... i try the first one as it has around 5000 viewers..

when its working some of the different broadcasters might be a bit slow
to start but a lot are quick usually....

its just hanging on them all at the moment...

its close to instant on my web browser

it really needs to be investigated... when its working its great...
so its like i am hitting a bad server or something.... but like i say...
in a web browser... its click and watch everything within seconds...

hello
Same here, work perfectly in browser but not using the steam client
does not work with older or newer steam release...
There is something strange ; all the broadcasters are offline, i guess it's why it does not work under the steam client may be
try to watch one of your friends playing and see if it works
omwb to older steam ..

hello
So you are lucky, all the broadcasters are still offline of me , so i guess it's the reason why it does not work under the client.
its very odd.... i did nothing... and it just works again...
