Question / Help Help! Offline on twitch but it works

[Brandonplaysbr]

Hello my name is brandonplaysbr (on twitch). I use obs studio to stream and i would like to say that it indeed does work. All of a sudden everytime i click start stream it would start but still show offline on twitch. I made sure the streaming service was on twitch and i reset my key and verified it is the right stream key. Please help me!

Live streaming is up to 30 seconds behind real time. Start streaming, wait like a minute then refresh your twitch page if it is still offline post a log

Its still offline.I waited for even eleven minutes and it does not come up. Thank you for your help!

14:38:37.329: [x264 encoder: 'streaming_h264'] custom settings: opencl=true scenecut=0

why do you have your x264 options set to this? delete opencl=true from these options and if you are still having an issue post a new log

Thanks so much for the help! My setting is like that because I saw someone added that on a youtube video for "best obs settings".

You're welcome. The thing is since we all have different hardware and all have different wants/needs the "best" settings are different for everyone.
Glad I could Help!

Hey if your still able to see this I still lag when I stream. I don't know why but OBS-Studio adds a ridiculous amount of lag to my game and it appears bad in the stream. In the stream I would just stand there but audio would continue to role. https://gist.github.com/99128243fff621b3376fb3529a93d77c

1. Update OBS
2. Your CPU is weak which is causing the lag. Your probably gonna have to decrease the resolution for a smooth stream. A Pentium N3520 is just not gonna cut it for live video encoding. I'd recommend trying 480p (854x480) at 25fps. Might even have to go lower. Also you might want to decrease your bitrate that would also help.

Hmm I still think I need lower settings. Any recommendations? Also game capture seems to bring lag more then something like window capture (which is broken now)

just keep lowering your resolution. Try 360p next (640x360)

actually probably using quicksync encoder might help. I think its enabled on your cpu.

Hey i recently mad another post but no one replied so Im falling back on you. Thanks for the help and my game runs fine now but on the twitch stream is always freezing up or buffering, and the audio keeps on going. When I tried streaming on youtube it said it wasn't getting enough video to maintain a smooth stream. Please help

incomplete log, you need to have a full recording or stream in it

That system isn't suited to running OBS. I suspect it stays close to maxed out just from running Minecraft alone.
