I'm trying to stream using OBS because my xSplit streams were all laggy and wierd. I have been fiddling with the settings of OBS for awhile now and can't figure out why my stream is so choppy! It plays at a steady 30fps but whenever I look at a certain area in the game orjust do something spontaneous it glitches and looks all choppy and bad.

Example: (skip ahead to 45 seconds in) http://www.twitch.tv/pizzawizardpls/b/383225589

PC Specs:
Intel i5 3570k @ 4.1Ghz
EVGA Geforce GTX 660ti
16GB Corsair Dominator RAM @ 1600Mhz
ASUS Maximus V Formula MOBO
Corsair H80 Liquid Cooling

Internet:
80 Down
4 Up

Found the problem. I had CBR turned on because I would usually render with quality CBR in Vegas for YouTube videos. Turns out that streaming with it is a bad idea. Now running a stream at 720p with 60fps. LOVING OBS

Streaming using CBR is actually preferred, something else could have been going on. Were you using CBR+CFR? Definitely post a log from when it wasn't working right.
