Hey, I've been trying to get a decent stream the past few days to no avail.
Originally I was streaming with the AMD encoder and was wondering why the video quality looked low (big square ghosting pixels when turning) even at higher bitrates until I read on the forums here somewhere that hardware encoders are more for recording.
So I've switched back to software x264 at a 2500 bitrate and 160 audio bitrate, downscaling from 1080p to 720p and 30fps using bicubic.
While playing the game there was no lag and the cpu load looked fine on OBS as well as it saying 0 skipped frames. Then when I play the saved stream video back through twitch it's skipping big chunks of frames constantly making the video unwatchable...
Here's the log file, hopefully it helps pinpoint what's going on...
Oh and I have 40Mbps upload on speedtests and I have Sydney set as the server as that is closest, has the lowest ping and in that twitch connection test program I get 100 quality and 10,000+ kbps.
