JTVPing was a program used to ping all Twitch servers and find the fastest server.

Use the new TwitchTest tool instead, as TwitchTest will also do a test stream and monitor your bitrate and connection stability. JTVPing will no longer function due to Twitch API changes.

+ Show Spoiler [Old Information] +
JTVPing will ping all the available Twitch TV ingest servers and show you the average ping and jitter. Generally you will find that streaming to the server with the lowest ping will give you the best results (higher bandwidth and more stable stream), although you should experiment with several servers to find out which is best for you.

Update (Jan 2014): Now uses the new Twitch API rather than the old undocumented XML ingest list (the latter no longer appears to be maintained).

As of September 2016, JTVPing is completely non-functional due to Twitch API changes. Use TwitchTest instead.

If the number stays black it means the program was unable to connect to that server.

Thanks R1CH, useful as always.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Not true. I get 9ms for the Ashburn Primary, and 23ms for the Ashburn Secondary.

Is there a way to directly copy the ip address of the servers from the program? Would be a neat addition.
