Hi,
I'm a bit new to this and am having problems with stuttering audio whilst streaming from OBS.
My source is a gaming stream going into OBS that's being streamed to me from a friend in Germany, then I'm adding commentary and streaming out to Twitch.
Often whilst streaming, the audio I get from him is fine for the first few hours but then starts breaking up and gets progressively more stuttery and jumpy until it's completely garbled. After it has begun, this deterioration happens over only a few minutes.
The start of the audio breaking up is often (but not always) accompanied by "adding X milliseconds of audio buffering, total audio buffering is now Y milliseconds" etc messages.
The issue seems to be resolved by reconnecting the source but this doesn't explain why the problem is happening in the first place.
I'm running OBS v0.16.2 on Linux (system info below).
OS : Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon 64-bit
Cinnamon Version : 3.2.7
Linux Kernel 4.4.0-53-generic
Processor : Intel© Xeon© CPU E5-2630 v3 © 2.40GHz × 8
Memory : 31.3 GiB
Hard Drive : 82.3 GiB
Graphics Card : NVIDIA Corporation GM204 [GeForce GTX 970]
Graphics Card : ASPEED Technology, Inc. ASPEED Graphics Family
Any ideas about what might be causing the problem and is anyone else experiencing the same?
Thanks.
