Bug Report Dropped Frames on v0.47a (socket buffer full?)

Hi guys, I really need your help.
I've tried every single option to fix my dropped frames, inclunding:
  • * Changing quality between 6-10
    * Downscalling the resoltuion to 1.5 times
    * Changing preset
    * Changing max bit rate between 2000-4000
    * Changing twitch servers (UK/DE/NE)

And since the Log gives me a "bufferedSend error" I hope you know what is causing my problem :\

Here is my internet connection:

You have a lot of lagged frames, which indicates that your hardware can't handle the capture/encode at that resolution or using that capture method. You should definitely drop to 720p and try if it will run better.

The buffer full messages indicate that there is a problem between you and the twitch server you are trying to stream to. In most cases it means that you can't stream at that bitrate and have to drop it down untill you don't get those messages anymore. The new low latency mode can help here too.

Hi, thanks for you help Grimio!

I just tune some settings on my computer,dropped the max bit rate to 2000 and managed to have 0 dropped frames.

But still, other OBS versions I could stream with 3500 bit rate without frame drops and now I'm force to lower bitrate.
Also with my PC specs it shouldn't be needed to downscale resolution =\

As for the lower bit rate, are you sure you didn't accidentally activate low latency mode or something? This will drop frames more aggressively to keep your ping stable. The conditions for the Twitch servers change from day to day, something that worked the day before isn't guaranteed to work the next day, especially if you're not partnered.

Also, you have an i7 920, while you should be able to encode at 1920x1080, it's not going to leave a whole let left over for other applications, unless you've overclocked it or something, which isn't showing in the log file at least.

Just to fully understand if i activate low latency mode this will probably harm my dropped frames? I currently have it off. (also there is an option on Advanced> Network>Automatic low lantecy mode and its currently off to)

Really Thanks for the help paidbox. I tough that my CPU could handle because, like I said, in previous OBS versions I could stream without a problem
