In case the built-in Twitch streaming doesn’t work, there is always the option to use an RTMP fallback.

### How to configure RTMP for Twitch

1. Add a Live Streaming output destination to your mimoLive document.
2. Select “Custom RTMP Server”.
3. Set the “Ingest Server” field to **rtmp://live.twitch.tv/app/**.
