Hi there
When I'm streaming to Facebook via OBS (happens on SLOBS too) my stream bitrate intermediately tanks and causes massive frame drops to the point the stream becomes unwatchable. I've also noticed the bitrate spiking well above my CBR setting of 6000. My upload speed is around 74 so streaming at 1080p60 with 6000 bitrate should not be an issue at all but in any case, my bitrate can also tank when I have it set as low as 4000.
The crashing is semi random as I have noticed somewhat of a pattern which includes when I start of a game of Warzone. I often notice the infamous red box on OBS appearing as I've just loaded into the pre game lobby which suggests to me it may be something to do with my router? However at the same time my internet connection is all good, I don't disconnect from the lobby, I can still see my chat angrily telling me the stream is lagging so I'm honestly stumped. When this happens I just stop and start the stream again and the stream goes back to normal until it eventually starts messing up again. I'll list some troubleshooting I have attempted already however with some expertise I'm willing to try anything again.
Disabling firewall
Opening ports 1935, 80 & 443
Disabling UPnP
Tried various bitrates, including VBR and dynamic bitrate settings
Ran OBS in Admin
Reset and restarting the router
Restarting the game (this is on Xbox fyi)
Also for the record both my PC and Xbox are connected via ethernet.
Please please please someone put me out of my misery, I've been battling this issue for months and I'd love to fix it. Let me know if you need anymore info from me.
Thanks!
