Question / Help Massive Frame Drop

[DarkKingJoey]

Ok.. I'll Indulge you.. How do i use tcp Optimizer

 

[EBrito]

A freind of mine had a lot of network problems with OBS Studio.
He contected Microsoft and they give hime the guide linked:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/10741/windows-10-fix-network-connection-issues

Now he streams 1920x1080x60FPS 5000 Kbps toTwitch with no problems.

(By the way, Twitch raised limit for non partners, but considering 3500 Kbps as a limit helps viewer not buffering in case of slow ISP)

So i ran Tcp Optimizer.. and i went through that second link too.. All done.. Still the same issues

If you restart PC and issues continue (and no issues with other software) I have no more ideas to help you :(

 

[DarkKingJoey]

Nope.. still getting huge frame drop. I'm 100% certain its not my network.

I think Obs Studio could be conflicting with something cause i could do a blank stream with Nothing to show and it has 50% frame drop.. So somethings going on

 

[DarkKingJoey]

I dont have minimize network impact even selected on obs classic.. this makes no sense

 

[EBrito]

Try installing a portable version of OBS Studio

And check if this new, clean, OBS Studio works or not.

 

[DarkKingJoey]

Yer still got the same issues

 

[EBrito]

No more ideas, sorry. :(

Have you read this?

 

[DarkKingJoey]

Thanks mate.. i dont think its network.. Sheerly cause it used to work.. the network didn't change.. but suddenly the program stopped working how it was

Maybe a long shot, have you checked your anti-virus software causing a delay in data being sent whilst streaming?
Try setting up an exclusion for OBS Studio if you haven't already, some AV programs are notorious for interfering with network connections.

 

[DarkKingJoey]

I'm running Windows Defender for Anti Virus

 

[DarkKingJoey]

Still the same issues.. I'm noticing the data flow seems to be from 200kb to 4000kb.. yet my obs classic stays stable at 3000

 

[BornDownUnder]

The only other thing I can think of is maybe it is a routing issue in regards to lost packets somewhere along the lines from your end to the twitch server you are using to broadcast.

In saying that, it does not explain why you would have no issue with OBS Classic yet have the issue with OBS Studio, which points to a network configuration issue at your end, or a conflicting program (Most likely an AV program intercepting the data packets to screen it, causing a delay when it bursts the transmission data post-analysis)

Can you take a snippet/screenshot of your network config settings for more info to try & work out if it is a setting issue that is conflicting with OBS Studio, perhaps a dev can chime in as well with more insight?

 

[DarkKingJoey]

Ok.. Out of Nowhere.. Obs studio is now working.. WTF

this makes no sense whats so ever

Such is life when the source of the problem is outside of your control.
