Question / Help Fairly new streamer concerned about webcam.

Hello guys, so i just started streaming last week, and i figured i would like a webcam for my stream, to get the viewers a more pleasant experience. I am just concerned that my internet is good enough for streaming. also i have experienced some lags while i stream, and i really insecure about the settings I used in my OBS. So basicly im asking how to make it pleasent for the viewers with a good quality, and me not lagging when playing. and the site question, if i can stream with a webcam or not. I am streaming CS:GO, if any of you have any experience with that game.

Kind regards - Markus Runge.

That logfile is missing important sections. Just use the 'upload log' function from the Help menu, and post the link here.

You should be fine on upstream speed, though speedtest sites are worthless for livestreamers; they test a different type of connection than livestreaming uses.

If you want advice on a webcam to buy, the Logitech c920 is the current gold-standard for streamers.
