What Is It?
Use the Twitch input to trigger OvrStream animated alerts and updates for incoming Follower, Subscriber, Resubscriber, Host, Raid, Cheer Bit, Gifted subscription, and chat alert notifications from Twitch.
There are two types of Twitch Input; Alerts and Updates. You’ll see each type in the input list; Alerts will activate a title every time the data is changed, and and Updates will simply update the text on-screen, but will not affect the playback of a title design; making them perfect for projects such as Overlays.

How To Use It?
You can log in to Twitch by assigning the Twitch Input to a graphic in the Playlist.
This will open the Twitch login panel where you can log in to your Twitch Account.
After entering your information and authenticating, your Twitch graphics will play in automatically whenever new data is received.
If you need to assign (or re-assign) the text boxes that render variable data, click on the ‘Show Inputs’ toggle in the Edit/Preview pane. From there, you can click & drag the input type over the text box in your title design.
