First of all you're gonna need xfire, here: http://www.xfire.com/download/now/ Then, Install it and register an account. Now go to option-tools-broadcasting, and click enable. Open up your game through xfire's list of your games, and hit scroll lock+B. That's it, your stream will now appear at www.xfire.com/live_video/username/ ! Feel free to share your xfire account names if you plan to stream! Edit: Small update, If your graphics card supports DX10 streaming won't work for you.  | ||

Edit: 'kay so I found the cause of this, if you have a DX10 graphics card and leave xfire running while playing, you'll get some sort of screen-tears. Currently no solution, except switching graphics cars ._. Edit2: Quote from Xfire, this will allow you to play the game with Xfire on but not stream. + Show Spoiler + * When I play Starcraft with Xfire In-Game enabled I get black bars on my screen. How can I fix it? You are likely running on a DirectX 10 supported graphics card. This is currently a known issue with Xfire In-Game's DDRAW rendering mode and dx10 supported cards. Unfortunately, the only workaround is to turn off Xfire In-Game messaging. To disable In Game messaging for individual games: * Make sure you exit any games that are running. * In Xfire, go to the Tools | Options | Games tab. * Under Installed Games, highlight the title of the game you wish to disable In-Game messaging for. * Click the Advanced Options button. * Check "Disable Xfire In-game." No Exit or log off is required for this change. The next time you launch that game, XIG should be disabled. | ||

I tried hosting one and watch at the same time with tabbing out and it was about 10 sec delay or so. Was that only because it somehow bugged up since I watched myself? | ||

Not network lag, heavy FPS lag. Impossible to play . | ||

This could actually get intresting if someone refined the OP with a collection of everybodys stream URLs. And possibly a detailed description with race and iccup skill level. Also maybe at what time its most likely for your stream to be active. | ||

im on a laptop and there isn't lag when i broadcast intel core 2 duo L7500 1.6ghz intel X3100 gma965 windows 7 32 bit im using high or medium settings in the broadcasting options so yeah it's either launch through xfire without anti hack or launch iccup and not be able to broadcast :s | ||

I suggest using ustream/justin etc instead. Xfire isn't really relevant atm. At least not in the sc2 community. | ||

Clbull, I think you can stream and record video at the same time, it's just that their two different functions and it will probably severely reduce your game performance. As for the service, I'd say it's really easy to use and setup, but the generally poor stream quality and poor functionality really hinder it. And for some reason, Xfire videos are huge files. | ||

I guess I'll have to do some more digging to see exactly what programs people use... *EDIT* Aha, youtube always saves the day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrV_iLd_FGU Well I agree with what people are now saying about Xfire. It feels kinda crap. Otherwise, I did a bit of looking around and found out that apparently people use Xsplit or Flash Media Live Encoder to stream with a Ustream or Jusin.tv account. Destiny has a good tutorial showing how he streams (using FMLE) | ||
