Hey,


I used to be able to stream 720p (short video from months ago => http://www.twitch.tv/thextera_/c/1814920)
When i had lag in here, it was due to hardware issues.

Now a few days ago, i got myself a new pc and decided to get into streaming again. But i'm unable to even though i have a decent enough upload speed for 720p http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2949936253

I don't understand anymore.

My pc specs:

* Intel i5-4570 @ 3.6 Ghz (turbo)
* Nvidia GTX 770
* 8gb Ram


I tried to play around with all the settings and none of em work.it's going between 0 - 1000 kb/s and always a red colored bitrate box.

http://www.twitch.tv/thextera_/b/457659455 littlie video on how it is right now. The moment i jump or do anything, it goes lagmode :/

Any clues?

Try a different server. London and Amsterdam had a couple bugs recently, not sure if they're all fixed yet.

I just tried with frankfurt and new york servers, and it's still the same :/

OK, try this: Broadcast Settings -> File Output Only. Do a local recording. Just to see if the output is lagging or just the stream. Just record whatever it was you were streaming before that lagged, do the same stuff you were doing before. Just try and reproduce the problem.

And then watch the recording. If the recording is fine, the problem is in your connection to Twitch. Either because your Internet connection can't keep up, or a CDN along the way can't keep up or Twitch can't keep up. If the recording is not fine, the issue is more local.

Yeah, the local recordings are fine..

http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2949936253 I linked this before, it should be plenty, yet the bitrate thing constanlty goes from 0 - 1000 kb/s :/


i'm not even playing a game and still the kb/s is on "0" a lot and goes to 750 sometimes, then down again, etc

Well, first of all... Speedtest.net is highly inaccurate as far as measuring a connection's streaming capability is concerned. Speedtest relies purely on burst whereas a stream is a constant stream of data. A more accurate test would be http://testmy.net/upload -- make sure to test to a test server near your preferred streaming server.

To find out which streaming server that should be, use something like http://obsproject.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3226 -- Some servers may be closer to you physically but their connection to you may be more unstable. You are looking for the server that has the best combination of ping and jitter. You don't want a high ping obviously but a high jitter is equally bad.

Last but certainly not least, you could consider running http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~partha/diffpr ... probe.html, to determine whether or not your ISP is shaping your connection speed.

Well, those are fine results indeed. That leaves us with a few variables, of which one very prominent -- Twitch. And given the fact you're European, that does kind of make sense. Twitch has been having some considerable issues with their service in Europe as of late. They are working hard on resolving these issues but until such a time as when those issues have been resolved, we are kind of stuck with accepting some unfortunate temporary solutions. Such as dramatically reducing bitrate.

Thextera, looking at your server ping plugin, I would suggest that there is a bottle neck between your ISP and the outside world. You'll notice that the ping timings to FRA for Vaughn Live are identical as the ones to our ingests, I would guess we both reside in the same major peering point in Frankfurt, which would indicate your ISP needs to determine where they are saturating to the outside world.
