Question / Help Dropped frames

I downloaded OBS to try it out and I started streaming and I notice frames are dropping a lot at times when I'm playing, but I have no lag at all in the game or browser, etc.
dunno where I can find the logfile

I had the same problem and realized under Broadcast Settings the FMS URL: was set to Global Load Balancing. I changed this to the closest server to me and the dropped frames stopped happening. I was getting upwards up 30,000 dropped frames per stream of 20-30 minutes long before doing this.

I took a look at the VODs and found that I didn't drop frames for like 40min, then it started to happen and the video lagged like mad, audio never lagged at all.
