Hey folks,

Could use some help with this as I may just not understand what I'm doing. I'm using the auto-config wizard on OBS Studio 64. Youtube allows nearly infinite bitrate and I'd like to test the auto-config with their recommended bitrate for 1440p/60, or 18k. However, the auto-config is capped at 10k for the Youtube stream. Is this intentional or do I just need some guidance?

YouTube will suspend your channel if you don't do a "real" stream. OBS doesn't do an upload test to YouTube for this reason as it sends a random stream of data that would be flagged by YouTube, so it picks 10mbps as a starting point. Feel free to raise / lower it as your connection allows.
