Question / Help Dropped Frames In OBS

[christopher123456]

I was streaming the game CSGO for about 2 hours and saw a message at bottom of my OBS
"DROPPED FRAMES 6 0.01%..... Is it normal to drop frames 0.01% or dropped frames 6, once in a while? does it effect the stream? Thanks.

This just means your internet connection crapped out for 6 frames of video. No one will notice and I wouldn't worry about it.

6 frames out of about 216,000 (assuming 30fps, it's 432,000 for 60fps).
People are NOT going to notice.

So does everyone who stream normally encounter small FPS drops in OBS? FPS drops of 6 0.01% or more? Thanks!

Normally you should have 0, but 6 is small enough not to worry about.

So do a lot of people sometimes encounter a small frame drop? Also what causes that frame drop of 0.01% is it my download speed or upload speed that caused it?

If anyone has any input or advice I would be very grateful... Thank you so much guys.

Three different people already gave you the same advise. You're looking for a fourth opinion or what?

Unless you have a leased internet line to Twitch, which no one has, a very small percentage of dropped frames are inevitable. Stop worrying about it. I won't reply to this thread again.
