Hello,

Whern I try to stream, it dosen't feel smooth, and when I watch the VOD on my twitch page, it kinda laggy as well.

I read that the Nvidia NVENC was the best, but maybe im using the wrong preset?


OBS Settings:

Nvidia NVENC (automatic preset)
Encoding Profile: Main
Max Bitrate 2500kb/s

1.5 (1280x720)
FPS 30


PC Specs:

GTX 970 4G MSI
8GB Ram
I7 2600k

Connection: 70/70 Mbits

Thanks in advance,

Regards Kristian "sensityy"
 
Only thing I see wrong in the logs is that you changed a preset to "llhq", which it's saying it's a slower one and may cause issues and low FPS.

Now, I'm not 100% which reset it's talking about - maybe the "x264 CPU Preset" under "Adavcned"? Make sure that one is set to "veryfast".

If you hadn't chnaged that, not sure then which "preset" it's talking about then.
 
The pixelation happens because you're using NVENC. NVENC is great if you're recording gameplay but for streaming, you're probably better off using x264 in terms of stream quality. Your CPU isn't that old and you can do it flawlessly especially if you play games like CS:GO.

Now the VOD player on the VOD pages is terrible and will make any old broadcast look laggy. You're better off downloading your old broadcast and viewing it in MPC-HC or VLC.
