I have only had OBS for a couple of days and every time I stream I disconnect from the server every 20-25 minutes on the dot. I have tried a different server and changed my stream key 4 times. I have also lowered my bitrate and nothing seems to help. My upload is 6 so I am streaming at 2400 for my bitrate. I just want to be able to stream for hours with no problem. Please HELP!

Thanks

You'll have to post a log, but generally we can't help much with frame drops and disconnections all that much, other than advising trying to find the best server and lower bitrate until it stops. In rare circumstances it can be network driver issues and certain firewall program issues. Sometimes it can be the router. If you're on wireless it's often that. Sometimes it can just be the internet connection. Sometimes it can just be your general location.

There are too many variables, which makes it difficult to really tell, but we've tried to cover them all in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8870
