Question / Help Problem with YouTube Live New tool

Hello ;)

I use OBS for stream on Twitch and YouTube.
I have no problem on Twitch, the viewers see the stream almost at the same time that it happens.

But, on YouTube I have 2 problems.
On Youtube, viewers see the stream with more than a 1 minute 30 seconds delay. It is a bit annoying, but as long as everything is synchronized it is not very serious. And I think that this problem is mostly related to the new YouTube tool for livestream and not a problem with OBS.

But the second problem that I have is: youtube gives me a report on my stream, and the message says:
Please use a key frame rate less than or equal to 2 seconds. Keyframes are not sent frequently enough, it will cause buffering. Frequency of keyframes current: 8.3 seconds. GOP sizes may be incorrect if integration errors.

I do not really understand what setting to change that message no longer appears.
I want to solve this problem, but I do not feel that my stream has any problem.

I stream in 720p 4000kbps.
I use these video options: http://puu.sh/2zBkJ
I use these advanced options: http://puu.sh/2zBhP (I have a AMD FX-6100 processor so I can change some options?)

Thank you for your consideration, and sorry for the bad english, I'm french.

I seem to get those errors too when using the Youtube Livestream 2.0 (aka New youtube live) whereas everything seems fine w/ version 1.0

Oui, exactement ce que je pense.
Mais le nouveau live permet donc de stream dans toutes les résolutions pour les viewers, ce souci doit certainement avoir une solution

Je me suis permis de te répondre en français vu que tu l'es^^

In Advanced options, add the following custom x264 parameter:

keyint=60

Make it 60 or less, and as long as you are streaming at 30fps, you shouldn't get the keyframe error anymore.
