Question / Help Dropping frames like hell.

Hello, I know this is yet another dropped frames but after reading all the guide I managed to find that might've seen related to my problem, but I haven't managed figure out and fix my dropping frames.

The "symptoms" while streaming are: dropped frames in chunks and the bitrate speed in the lower right goes from 14**kb/s up to 38**kb/s while I have 3500kb/s bitrate setup.
If I lower my bitrate even up to 1400kb/s(which sucks in quality) the same thing happens but on a lower bit rate somewhere around 900kb/s up to 2400kb/s.

Also I have to mention that I've tried to resize my resolution, even under 720p same thing happens.














Any suggestion would be helpful and thanks in advance.

Posting a logfile is recommended, as per the stickied thread at the top of the forum. It contains all of your settings, and saves posting a bunch of screenshots.
Bitrate will jump a bit, though shouldn't be THAT bad. We really need to see the logfile to help more though, as it contains a lot more information about what's going on, on the back end.

I did all the above, I dislike coming on forums to ask questions and bother people, taking their precious time for my problem, so, obviously I used the search function, I searched on other sources also trough google before coming and post my problem.

  • I tried all servers in OBS.
  • I lowered the bit rate, every time I lower it, even if it's under 1000kb/s the same thing happens, the actual bit rate is used by obs is with 30%(or more than that) less than the amount I tell him to use it.
  • I stream through a router but I did tried w/o it with direct connection,(I don't have wireless provider just the router and if it would've been from it it wouldn't have matter when I tried on direct connection).

  • I just added port forwarding again(I did test this before and had the same results).
  • I added OBS in firewall again(problem didn't disappeared).
  • I added exception in antivirus and same thing.

  • No malfunction of the hardware from what I see(maybe I'm missing something)
  • About ISP throttling I don't know... this is the log from ShaperProbe
DiffProbe release. January 2012. Build 1008.
Shaper Detection Module.

Connected to server 38.98.51.47.

Estimating capacity:
Upstream: 59887 Kbps.
Downstream: 66592 Kbps.

The measurement will take upto 2.5 minutes. Please wait.

Checking for traffic shapers:

Upstream: Measurement aborted due to high packet loss rate.

Downstream: No shaper detected.
Median received rate: 65258 Kbps.


As a side note, I am from Europe, during the day I get that upload speed in speedtest, which is miserable for me.
But usually it goes more than 15mb/s and when I get those results I usually can stream quite good, when I get results of 20mb/s I can stream at 1080p with no loss... but those periods of time are so few and I don't know from where it can be anymore.

Also I have a new log... and it was even worse than before.

I would like to be sure if it's from me, my settings etc. or is from my damn provider cause changing servers didn't work, but anyone would get pissed when he sees 5mb/s or 20mb/s on speedtest and at the same time in OBS he can't do stable 2500kb/s or 3500kb/s, always having an unstable bitrate...
Anyways, any suggestion would be helpful, thanks.

There's your problem. Seems like something with your internet connection is limiting your upload bandwidth. This could be with your own LAN hardware or ISP throttling.
