Question / Help Excessive stream buffering.

[Yazzssai]

Hello! I'm having a problem where every 10-15 seconds my stream will start buffering for about 5 seconds.

My internet speed shouldn't be the problem as i have 90mbps up and 90mbps down.

Proof:

My settings are set to the recommended Twitch.TV settings, and i have tried to lower my bitrate but with no success

CBR: yes
Use CBR padding: yes
Max. bitrate: 3500
buffersize: 3500
FPS: 45
Resolution: 1680x1050
Keyframe interval: 2 seconds
Use CFR: yes

Thanks :)

Lower you stream resolution to 720p and set bitrate to 2000-2500kbps.

Yeah, people are going to buffer like mad at 3500kbps. Drop to 2000kbps maximum. Even 2500 will cause a significant increase in viewer buffering.

And there's no benefit to streaming at 45fps.
