Hi  
I have an affiliate account  
I play at 1440p 144hz  
obs resize to 1440p60  
6000kbps

can I send 24 000 KBPS upstream to twitch?

but twitch is skipping auto scale down to 1080p  
there are only 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p, 160p + SOURCE 1440p60  
where is 1080p?

is this a bug?

This is a developer forum, we can’t help you here, try [https://help.twitch.tv/](https://help.twitch.tv/)

One thing I will mention though, you’re an affiliate which means you only have priority access to transcoding, not full access like partners do. This means that transcoding wont always be available to you and your viewers will have limited or no options. This also means you’ll be providing a poor viewer experience by streaming at excessive bitrates as without transcoding not all of your audience will be capable of watching your streaming in a suitable manner.

this means 1080p will be on and off?  
when you add more transcoding servers right?
