Well this is weird

Check this,2 months apart:
1) http://www.twitch.tv/sorapak/b/471884633 The ok one

2) http://www.twitch.tv/sorapak/b/490276915 The NOT ok one

I didn't change anything,although I was forced to update because the OBS client I was using suddenly had server errors and couldn't connect,and by updating to latest OBS version it was fixed (did twitch shut down a server?)

I tried fiddling around with settings,tried some guides. used this: http://obsproject.com/estimator

and apart from wrecking my stream quality it did nothing more,I have no idea what to do. Basically my stream is ruined although I had same settings same computer ISP everything,only thing I did I was forced to update to latest OBS because the version I was using couldn't connect to the server

(I'm not sure but I THINK that there was an italian server that doesn't exist any more? Might just be my memory fooling me though,for the life of me can't remember which server I was using in the previous OBS version.)

Re: Haven't streamed for a 2 months,came back,dropping frame

Unfortunately, dropped frames is very difficult to diagnose, the reasons why it can happen are subject to so many variables that we don't really have any control over. We made that guide R1CH linked to try to tell people what we know about it, and the best things to do about it. Generally, the most common suggestion we can really give to people is to find the best server you can that causes the least issue, and lower bitrate until it stops.
