Connect the twitch account to the console

Now the first thing I want to do is at the console go ahead and hold the share button on your ps4. Once you hold the share button down, go down to sharing and broadcast settings, and now you're going to head down the link with other services, now depending on which one you want to stream with. I'll select either twitch or YouTube will start off doing the twitch one.

Go ahead and click on twitch, and go ahead click on sign-in, and once you get to this screen it's going to give you an option. What you need to do is go to twitch that TV/activate to put in this code here, which is the 3feveD, let me go ahead and enter that, and then I'll show you exactly what I'm doing.

I still go ahead, go back to the desktop, basically what I did was I went ahead and I'll here was a Miss, just in case a little hard to see with the twitchTV/activate, put in that code that was showing on ps4, and now we're going to click on activate, and that's all you got to do to connect the twitch account to the console.

You have to be in an application for it to work

We'll go ahead, go back to the console, give it a few seconds to register, that code was activated, and there you go now. It is officially connected to your ps4, go ahead and click on OK. Once you click on ok, you need to go ahead and go back to the main screen.

Now to stream with the ps4, you have to be in an application for it to work. So you have to go ahead and open a game, etc, whatever you're going to use to stream is hold down the share button again, and now we need to click on broadcast gameplay, and we're going to go ahead and click twitch on this one.

Then basically need to set your title, set your quality, be very careful with your quality, because depending on your internet speed you want you to need to choose based off of what your speed is, also depending on whether you have a standard ps4 or a ps4 Pro will depend on whether you have a 1080p option to stream at.

Now you can go and click on your microphone and audio broadcast, display messages, etc, or whatever you want here, and then you just go ahead and hit start broadcasting.
