Settings Reference

Open settings with the gear icon in the title bar or press Ctrl+,. The settings window has a searchable sidebar. This page lists every tab and what lives in it.

By default settings open as a centered window. Turn off Compact Settings Window in the Interface tab for a full-page layout.

Profile

Your account and identity hub. Manage linked accounts, switch or sign out, connect 7TV for paints and badges, equip cosmetics, view your rank and entitlements, choose your profile theme, control which sections show on your public profile, and view accolades. See Profile and Cosmetics.

Player

Everything about playback.

• Player overlay buttons: turn the on-player action buttons on or off (follow, subscribe, clip, clips and VODs, add to multi-stream, reload, close).
• Auto-switch: what happens when a stream goes offline, including switching to the same category or your follows, following raids, and staying in offline chat.
• Streamlink: stream timeout, retry count, and enhanced codecs.
• Video: lock aspect ratio, low-latency target mode, preferred codec, and quality auto-selection.
• Audio boost: the compressor and gain controls with a reset.

See Player and controls.

Chat

The look and behavior of chat.

• Chat design: font size and weight, line height, and text rendering.
• Name style: how your own name and its separator appear, and the accent source.
• Behavior: timestamps and format, emote scale, deleted-message handling, collapsing repeats, offline chat, and the input placeholder.
• Appearance: hover preview size, separators, current-user highlight, and viewer count.
• Custom user commands, highlights, and per-user overrides.

See Chat and Emotes.
