Question / Help Beam Streaming?

[BlockAboots]

So have just started fiddle about with Beam for stream and have a few questions.

Am i correct in thinking that Beam has a cap of 3500 bitrate quality?

How can you stop your stream from becoming pixelated when there is a lot of movement on the screen if your capped at 3500 bitrate (im currently streaming at 1080p and 60fps)

I seem to be getting dropped frames, for a 45 minute stream i got approx 98 dropped frames, how do i not drop frames?

Should i use RTMP or FTL?

Does using Tachyon over OBS yield any advantages??

thanks.

You'd have to ask beam for their bitrate limits.
The Tachyon build of OBS is not developed or supported here. If you have trouble with it, you need to go to beam directly.

Ok taking Beam out of the question,

How can you stop your stream from becoming pixelated when there is a lot of movement on the screen if your capped at 3500 bitrate (im currently streaming at 1080p and 60fps)

and Should i use RTMP or FTL, or will they produce the same quality?

RTMP vs FTL is irrelevant for picture quality.

3500kbit bitrate isn't enough for 1080p30 and you're trying to squeeze 1080p60 into it. Of course it's going to pixelate.
