Question / Help OBS Studio stuttering and quality help!Dual PC

22:03:25.316: Output 'simple_stream': Number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 38 (0.0%)
22:03:25.316: Output 'simple_stream': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 2 (0.0%)
22:03:25.316: Output 'simple_stream': Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 16 (0.0%)

This is a pretty negligible amount of stutter or lag. Are your viewers complaining of stutter?

If you want better quality, try 1080p or lowering frame rate to 30.

I'm not really an expert of streaming but this is what I would assume.

Hmm maybe I uploaded the wrong log or maybe I just have the wrong term for whats happening, its like its blinking every .5 seconds and stops then goes then stops, I'll double check tomorrow if that is the right log, not currently on the computer.
 
Hi,

The log looks clean, one thing to maybe try is to lower the bitrate from 3500 to 3000 assuming your aren't a twitch partner as the max here they allow for a long period is 3500. I would check your bandwidth to twitch as I suspect you are bursting above 3500 even with CBR and twitch is dropping the traffic hence no issues in the obs log. If nothing else something to tick off as not the issue.

Worth checking the overall cpu usage and not just obs in case something else is taking more than you expect, though I would expect some errors in the log to reflect which there aren't.

Weird, Ill try going to bitrate 3000 today and see if it still does it, even in the Vod it was doing the stuttering thing ill reply later thanks.
