Hey guys started streaming a while ago. Now I really would like to know some optimal setting to make my stream only be about 2 seconds off my OBS capture. When I stream it's around 10 seconds from where I actually am:) Thanks a bunch.


Also Please someone tell me what the Latency Tuner in the advanced options does. And yea I've read that only the developer can do that or whatever, but how are we suppose to use your program without knowing what the buttons do haha.

Really would like a quick reply my download and upload is 6.8MB-Download and 1.5MB-Upload

My settings are 2700kb/s and 55fps at 720p

Its been working so well with 0 frame drops.

but like a said before It's 10 seconds + behind where I actually am so when I am doing giveaways It's really awkward to interact with my viewers:) Thanks guys!

Is there any "easy" fix for the seconds behind? I have watched people stream where it is 1 to 1 but I have no idea what that requires...

You can't. Delay is inherent, and even before the Twitch HLS rollout 4-6 seconds was considered 'good', with 10 being more average. Now it's closer to 30 seconds. YouTube uses the same streaming method. You just need to suck it up and deal. No one (but Twitch) likes the new streaming method.

Your upstream is set to 2700kbps (2.7mbps) and you only have a rated 1.5mbps upstream? Either you're getting WAY too much up from your ISP, or you have discovered quantum tunnelling.

Well if you want to talk quantum tunneling haha. Is that so? Well thank you for your quick reply.

Do you happen to know what Latency Tuner is?

Whats required to have a stream that is 1 to 1? When you become a twitch [sponsor] I don't know what its called, but when you start getting paid for being on twitch to they give you more bandwidth?

You can never have a 1:1 stream, full-stop. The technical limitations mean it will never happen, with current-day technology.
As a partner, you get transcoding options. With a subscriber button, you get subscribers, custom emotes, and a couple of other bits. You might get higher priority on the distro servers, but that's more of a feeling, less of a fact.

Well thanks buddy! Real big help here! I actually am watching your past streams currently. Your quality is fantastic. I just want something like that haha. Whats your Download/Upload if you dont mind.

Should I keep my quality at 10? Or should I stick it around 8-7?
