first thanks for this amazing software and all the devs working and improving it.
i have a mid-end cpu [amd phenom II x4 965 @4.2 GHZ] and decent gfx [GTX 570SOC] my connections are 51D\3.1UP
i have been trying to stream with multiple settings but it all have come to one problem, no matter what i do i always get in game ping lagg and i am warping\spiking all over the place my ping goes from 80 [normal ping without streaming] to 160-180
im streaming tribes:ascend gameplay. this kind of lagg dosent happend with xsplit alltho xsplit is too heavy for my cpu
i have found the source of my problem it all comes to "use send buffer" wich is set as default to 32768, i tried to play with that option by going down with the options and it seems that as low as i go the less ping issue i have ingame but as low as i go the stream lagging\quality dropping as well
my stream settings are
veryfast\faster preset
base rez : 1920x1080
rez downscale : 1.50 (1280x720)
fps : 25 [not marking disable aero option]
the server im stremaing to is twitch and it has the lowest ping to me
encoding - quality : 8-10
max bitrate\buffer size : 2000-2300
audio : AAC\192\44.1stereo

when using the settings above i get 60\80 fps in game but again the ping is sky high and its unplayable
im really looking forward to using this program it is cpu friendly and the quality is amazing compare to xsplit
i hope will resolve my problem
thanks!

Edit: i have just readed the "known bug issue" thread and i tried to lower the "use buffer size' like i said above but the stream is really laggy and pixleated and im getting a massive amount of frame droppes in obs
