bitrate

I have mediocre internet, so I struggle to get a good image. I stream to YouTube 720p60 with x264 faster preset, and it's had the best looking image so far. I get 4.6 MB/s upload speed. I set my bitrate to 4,300 kbps to leave some headroom for if I play an online game. I have a 3700X and a...

Hello! I've been having this issue lately where my webcam quality plummets whenever a lot of movement is happening in the game but when the game is still the webcam quality turns back to full quality. Why exactly is this happening? My settings are good as far as I'm concerned. Any help would be...

Hi all, I am a partnered twitch streamer and recently my obs has been stopping and going to 0 bitrate after about 3 hours of streaming. After, when I press Stop Stream, it gets stuck on Stopping Stream.... Then I have to close OBS and reopen it. Could it be my isp? or windows? I believe I have...

hello! first of all, I'm sorry if my enlgish is not that good, let me tell you my problem, in the past I was streaming perfectly fine, but with just 3mb upload speed and a shitty computer, now I bough a new pc, and a new internet (15mb upload speed) but I can stream because when I'm streaming...

Hello! I had some issues over a couple of streams, notifed from chat, that my stream will sometimes go pixely. I noticed my bit rate was fluxing quite a bit. I was running a study 4000 kbs with no issues a while back. Im curious as to what is going on, what settings I should use/adjust, and how...

Having an issue when I start up a stream. For some reason, OBS outputs a massive bitrate when I first start streaming a new show. No matter what I do in the output settings, it will jump around wildly, then eventually settle after 10-20min of streaming. This causes the beginning of the streams...

I stream at 6000 bitrate, but sometimes my bitrate output spikes up to 20 - 35K, which makes my ping in-game really high and the stream laggy. I really need help with this as the high bitrate stays for at least a minute which really ruins the vibes.

Hi there all, this is my first time posting so apologies if this is in the wrong section. I've been trying to stream recently and have a wired connection to my router. Twitch test shows that my connection to servers (US East) is around 80 on the best, with 6000+ kb/s. But I keep running into a...

Got a quick question, I got a i5 7500 with an RX 580 with sufficient ram and such but my recordings and streams are either terrible quality or dropping frames for a whole second at times, what’s the bottleneck here? Before you immediately claim “i5 bad” it was a pretty decent quad core i5 when...

Got a quick question, I got a i5 7500 with an RX 580 with sufficient ram and such but my recordings and streams are either terrible quality or dropping frames like crazy, what’s the bottleneck here? Before you immediately claim “i5 bad” it was a pretty decent quad core i5 when purchased I try...

Hey guys, I run a live music stream with obs, it's a 2 camera set up at 1080p with a live audio mixer. Anyways, that's all besides the point. Recently I've been having extreme fluctuations in my bitrate, I run on hardwire ethernet directly into my mac (I have a 2018 macbook pro that I have an...

Been experiencing an issue every day for over a week, where after roughly 2 hours of streaming, OBS reports 0 kb/s bitrate despite the internet still working fine (I checked). It functions for a few minutes before encountering the same issue after a full restart of the program. Upon opening...

I've been using Obs for a few years now and have never found the "Best" settings. I've heard bitrate can be the problem, so I decided to post here. What bitrate setting should I use? Like Cqp,Cbr, Vbr, or whatever. And what numbers? Thanks in advance. :) Specs: Acer Predator Helios 300 GPU...

Hi guys, So I recently tried to record my first video (Valorant gameplay) and after trying to configure the settings, it turns out my audio bitrate is capped at 160. Could anyone help me figure out how to let it go up to 320 (because otherwise the audio sounds terrible). I've already turned...

Hey, So I've been streaming for a little while now, and I've noticed that my stream and webcam can get pretty pixelated when moving in more graphic intensive games. I'm not sure if its the settings I currently have for OBS or my computer specs is the problem. Attached here are my current...

Hello, I am running into issues with the recording part of the software. I keep getting pixelation. I have tried almost every setting and recording software but I get the exact same issue across everything. I have a video I recently uploaded for reference as to what is happening...

Hello. I recently started using OBS in an attempt to stream. I was curious was to set my bitrate at for streaming (on twitch). My internet is fairly slow (25 mbps download and 10 mbps upload). I only plan on streaming low resolution games (low bit/frame rate games such as gameboy/nintendo ds...

Hi, My question is which values are particularly important in order to be able to stream and record on OBS with good quality. I've heard that CUDA cores should be the most important values. Is that correct? Please no answers like -All are important .... My graphics card: RX 580 8GB I thank...
