Hi all,

Just want to say thanks to all the people that make obs possible for free.

Ever since the latest update, my stream is lagging and stuttering.
I have tried using the elgato software to stream and it is smooth.

Any ideas?

Below is my log

Could you give a vod of this? Your log actually reports no real problems at all. Good settings, no dropped frames, no skipped frames, no late frames, almost no duplicated frames. It's pretty much clear across the board on all accounts for OBS itself.

Well I went back and checked some vods and it didnt look as bad as it was when i was watching the live stream.

Good to know my log looks ok.

I changed twitch servers and it seemed better after that.

you always have to watch your vod's i mean when your streams actually lagging than obs tells you that you dropped frames but for everything else only a vod is reliable about stream quality.

no matter what your problem is actually old and known already that twitch is having a lot issues lately and they try everything to fix it i guess especially for european streamer/viewer
