In case there is Chinese tournament without twitch stream you want to watch, or you simply want to learn Chinese language or listen to SCBoys. Here is a guide you may need.

[image loading]

The main toolbar, starting with the pause button (start button the stream is paused) is what you need most. Beside the pause button is the refresh button. You could refresh the stream without having to refresh the whole web page.

Next, you see the volume control. Left to it is the feedback button, which is pretty much useless. Right to it, the first is the control of flying words. Orange means there will be flying words, and grey means there won't. Further, you could change the quality of the stream. Normally the highest quality will be at the top and the lowest bottom.

Then you have the gear, it is the 'settings' button. The top line is the transparency setting. Left to right is 'None', 'Low', 'Medium' to 'High'. The bottom line is flying word control, if you turned the previous control at orange, you may choose where the words will be in the frame.

Further right to the gear you can have full-screens. The first is full screen in the web. The second is full screen in the window.

Also, you can use the arrows right to the fullscreen buttons to close the chat room.

For those who can't load, refresh your web page; for those who lag, add '?cdn=lx' at the end of your web address.

Hope this can be helpful.

P.S.: Please check the discussion below for more info.

They had a Chinese restream of HSC on the front page, with 130 000 viewers! (Probably because of it being on the front page, but still, that's a lot of people)

Oh, also, I've never had any troubles with Douyu TV since coming to China. Twitch always lagged back in Sweden but here Douyu is super smooth.

Twitch is far from flawless in my experience.

Unfortunately Douyu's viewer numbers should be taken with a sizable amount of salt (they're commonly believed to be inflated, though it is unknown by what factor).

Actually douyu.tv has been reconfigured recently for foreign IPs.

EDIT: This is a change that took place less than a month ago.

I've used Douyu before, but this is quite nice to explain things.

Yeah, forgot to mention that I don't really believe that 130 000 people were watching HSC.

Divide the displayed viewer number by around five to six you get an appox. number of actual viewers, the factor is bigger before tho
TranslatorIf you want to ask anything about Chinese esports, send me a PM or follow me @nerddigmouse.

Given that a lot of Koreans have opened (or going to open) Douyu stream and a lot of you want to watch are having connection issues. I hope admins will forgive me for bumping and urge people to read the penultimate paragraph. Also, I'd like to correct 'if you lag' to 'if you have connection issues'.
