Hi all :)
I'm pretty new with OBS and I'm trying to stream some Dota 2 on Twitch.
I'm really happy with OBS so far and I think it's very user friendly and great because it's simple to unterstand for beginners :)
Although I'm not sure if I made all the settings correct so I wanted to ask you guys if someone could check my settings. I read through different threads and also watched some videos but I'm still not quite sure about some points.
I normally have 50 mpbs download and 5 mbps upload speed. I checked it with the server I'm connected to on Twitch (-> Frankfurt). I live in Switzerland and the ping and speed is about the same as to my nearest server. So that's great! :)
The thing I'm not sure about is the stream. When I streamed on my PC, I tried to watch my own stream on my tablet (Surface 3) to check if everything is allright. The stream is lagging but I think it's because of the usage of the bandwith of my stream.. So when I'm watching my stream it's only lagging for me... One friend of mine once checked the stream and said it's working flawlessly but I'm not sure about that... I think the problem also might be my PC. My PC is quite okay but it's not the newest.. I think that I might have too high CPU usage so it lags.. Ingame i have no lags at all and my internet connection is very stable.
here is the log file (is that the correct name?): https://gist.github.com/anonymous/042b4f72e54f44cb8d98
some facts about my PC:
CPU: Intel Core i7 CPU 870 @2.93 GHz
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 460
RAM: 8GB
I have a quite big monitor. So my ingame setting is normally on 16:10. I changed it recently to 16:9 ingame due to OBS overlays I use. Now I'm not sure which settings I should make in OBS.
It would be great if someone could give me some advises on my concerns.
