Stream crashing several times a stream =(

[FreeXenon]

Hey guys,


i have been having my stream crash too much over too many months.
Typically my stream crashes and then OBS becomes unresponsive and then I have to end task it, and restart OBS.
I have attached the 3 files from yesterday's stream.

I wish there was general log analyzer so I can see what is going on after the stream.

Thanks,
Jim

OK, thanks!!

Game DVR - now off
Widows Updates - now completely updated =O
Frankerfacez - disabled
Web Cam - should be at: 720p, that may have been an old scene I hit while panicking during the 3 crashes.
Camera definitely does not appear 640x480 on stream. Resolution set to camera default. I can send screen shot if you like.
Internet - 100MB

Turn off dynamic bitrate control. You may be running into an issue between that and Nvenc encoding when your network can't keep up. Unfortunately switching to x264 encoding is not an option on that CPU.

Currently, I have CBR set @ 300 kbps - quality high

I will not stream again to test out these changes until Friday afternoon cst.
I will let you know how that stream goes.

thanks again.

I did the Twitch Speed Test thingy a long time ago.

The other thing only allows analyzing your LAST log, so I cannot see the previous 2 from the stream after it has crashed 2 other times.

OK, yesterday it crashed 3 times.



Here is the last log analyzed.

I do desperately need a new computer, so that may be large part of my issues.

Internet Speed - 99 MB/8.5MB

Twitch Bandwidth Test: I have done this a few times over the last year or so.
I did it again (10 sec) , so you can see it. I am set to US East: Chicago

Last Stream Analysis: From looking at the analysis from the last log, it seems I may have to reduce my stream quality?

Here are my current settings:

Encoder- NVENC (new)
Rate Control: CBR
Bitrate - 3000 kbps
Keyframe - 2
Preset - Quality
Profile -High
GPU - 0
Max b-frames - 2

Output - 720p
FPS - 30

No crash today.
I did change one setting:

Preset: Performance

No clue if that is a good change.
It does not always crash.

These last 2 streams went by OK, fortunately.
Any other feedback about the last set of crashes?

Thanks again all.

OK, here is the info on today's OBS:
Stream showed crashed stream on Twitch.
I could not just end the stream in OBS.
It just stood there grinding.
I end tasked on OBS.
I restarted OBS and restarted the stream.
Then it stays it was streaming but there was no stream in Twitch!!

I am really disheartened.
I only had a half hour left in my short 2 hour stream and I had a good conversation going on.

Thanks all.

There is no crash report for today.
Last one was in Sept
