I haven't had this issue with xsplit, but after about 3 hours of streaming my stream will disconnect randomly and reconnect, after which it's fine for another 3 hours or so.

Did it again tonight, 3:36h and it disconnected/reconnected. No dropped frames or any indication that there was anything wrong with the connection. Connected to the twitch/chicago server.

Same thing happened to me. I haven't had much time to test but I unchecked "Use Send Buffer" (even though this isn't recommend) and so far it's been fine. Still need to do a like a 6 hour run to be really be sure.

Hmmm, so it's not the chicago twitch server? I don't know what's causing it and it's so intermittent that it's really hard to troubleshoot it.

I've been curious about the send buffer as well as it seems to be a lan optimization, but I have a gigabit lan so I really don't need to worry about congestion there.

I have no idea what it is and neither does Jim, so I'm just experimenting with different settings to help pin point the area. I use the LA Secondary server.

I actually can't say for certain what the problem could be if you're getting disconnected with no b-frame loss. If you're not getting frame drops, is your stream pausing a lot? (note that this sort of pausing only occurs while viewing, it does not show up in the vods)

No, it's not really pausing... it's pretty solid. I think my bitrate may actually be a lot higher then it needs to be for 720p. You can look through past vids in the link in my sig if you're interested. I reviewed last nights to see if anything out of the ordinary was happening before I d/c'd, but it didn't look that way. I noticed that there was one small pause I found(one secondish), but that was in a 30 minute segment I reviewed of the 3:30 long vid. Otherwise it looks fine.

I'll have to try it tonight without the send buffer and see what happens.

Logs from last night

Ignore the short snippets, I was messing around with 45/60/90/120fps streaming, but wasn't actually streaming to a server. Still looks like I'll need a faster computer to do that as it does put noticeable strain on my game as far as input latency and fps goes (why I'm really gunning for streaming software that offloads to a secondary GPU).

NS2 is still a terribly optimized PoS too.

Hm, it's difficult for me to really know you are disconnecting because I unfortunately don't get it on my end, but if you find that something that changes this please let me know. For now I'm kind of having to make educated guesses because I don't really have any way to really know for sure

Happened again, send buffer didn't do anything. Also about a hour into my broadcast it started spitting out a massive amount of dropped frames. It looks like every single b-frame after the 1 hour mark was a dud. I didn't notice it because it looked fine on my secondary monitor, but it made my stream ridiculously jerky. Happened 1:14h mark, had no indication of why it happened.

http://www.twitch.tv/bensam123/b/344917424

Restarted my stream and it was fine till it disconnected around the 3 hour mark again...

hm, could you try 0.449a test build 4 in the test build thread (top in each forum)? Not sure about the disconnect, but it should fix the dropped frame issue

Yeah I updated to .49a in hopes that it fixed the grey thumbnail on twitch too... I'll check it out tonight. The p-frame issue was especially aggravating, there should be some sort of red flashing warning box that pops on if I start dropping a massive amount of frames. XD

Yeah, I actually have three monitors... Not sure what sort of complications that would cause. :l

I have two monitors and have gone on many hours of streaming with no issues as far as I can tell. I know of people right now that often go 6+ hours with no problems.

Did it again today on test 5. I did a lot of messing around with the stream before hand, but it still happened at 3:36:35... one of the other times it happened at 3:36:22.
