Livestreaming Software for Mac?

I have the "Game Capture HD" software at version 1.2.1 and it has the built-in livestreaming option, but doesn't allow room for customization (inputs of different sorts, etc.). Also, the footage via the built-in elgato livestream on Twitch has quite bad quality even when I am running on a good computer and have around 100 down and 80 up internet speed. Even when I bump up the bit rate to the highest possible, the stream still looks really crappy.

I don't have the software so I can't really comment, but I know many who use it without issues and can add in facecams as well. Maybe look up tutorials for the software?

Any of the above. If you go to the Livestream tab, there should be a download link for wirecast

Thanks for sharing the knowledge! Now I just have to work towards a partnership. I could already get one, but don't feel like settling for the easiest to get into as an option... Seems wierd how YT partners would get a 500$ program to livestream with, just for the sake of being partnered. :D

Because Youtube earns revenue off of livestreams that are on Youtube, so they make it easier, instead of driving traffic to Twitch.
 
BTW I've been using CamTwist and FMLE to streaming using EyeTV to capture. I just got my Elgato about a month ago after using an HDPVR Capture for Hauppagge *spelling*, but couldnt get it to work with eyeTV (I'll get into details of why in a private convo if you want), but I found out from calling them that if you call them and tell them you bought the Elgato Game Capture HD and would like to use EyeTV with it instead, they will send you a product key via email (takes only 2 days after opening ticket) for EyeTV that will ONLY WORK with an Elgato Game Capture HD device (NO OTHER DEVICE EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE IN LIST). But then you can Desktop Caputre + the window of EyeTV in CamTwist and voila, you have video capture. Set CamTwist as you camera source in FMLE. Then you need Audio Hijack to capture and record you sound/mic.

Man...now I'm going to go make a tut video... ;)
