Question / Help Stream getting major lag spikes

[awesomealvin]

Hello, I recently got my internet upgraded, so I tried streaming, but been having problems.
So every 3-6 seconds, major spikes occur, and it's pretty damn annoying.

My upload speed is currently at 8000kbit/s+.
I have streamed using DXTORY, and it still lags, and I even tried window and desktop, and still laggy. However, my performance is perfectly fine.

Here are my OBS settings:

Source - Video Capture Device: http://puu.sh/4Vvto.png

Encoding : http://puu.sh/4VvuT.png
Broadcast Settings : http://puu.sh/4Vvzu.png
Video : http://puu.sh/4VvAe.png
Audio : http://puu.sh/4VvAv.png
Advanced : http://puu.sh/4VvAF.png

DXTORY Settings

Codec Settings - http://puu.sh/4VvCs.png
Dxtory Video Setting (Output 1) - http://puu.sh/4VvCP.png

If there is anymore information you need, please let me know.

thanks

Can you post your log? viewtopic.php?f=6&t=97

What are you using DxTory for? In most cases, game capture should work better than DxTory, and DxTory isn't needed for capturing in OBS except for a few specific cases.

Yep. Under XSplit DXtory is almost required. OBS doesn't need it; the built-in Game Capture mode works MUCH better, and at a significantly lower CPU hit as well.
But yes, post your logfile and we can take a look.

Hello, thanks for the replies.
The thing about the OBS Game Capture, is that it crashed the game that I was playing (Warframe) as I started the Stream. And also when I tried the file output mode at 30fps, it didn't look as smooth as DXTORY 30fps.

I will upload all the logs from last night.
I experimented with different settings as you can see in the logs.
They will be in a .zip file.

I am going to try stream a game using the OBS Game Capture, and will come back with the results.

thanks

Okay, So I tried it with OBS Game Capture, and still having lag.
That box at the bottom of OBS is always at green.

check cbr and cfr also set your keyframe interval to 2 seconds and 3000bitrate/buffer the same should be way enough for 720@30

Are we talking framerate lag or in game ping?

 

[awesomealvin]

I changed to the settings as alpinlol has said, but no difference.
Though, I did notice that I was getting 10-30 higher ping in League of Legends, and the spiking is still there.
I changed to 2500 kbits and my ping only raised 2-10, and the spiking was gone at most.. BUT there are still a bit of lag spikes every once in a while... My upload speed should be more than enough, but I don't know what's still wrong.
Yes, I am on a wired connection, and am not connected to wireless at all, but tho i can.

So I'm not getting any ping lag or framerate lag at all.

thanks

EDIT: The thing that lags is the output video on the stream.
EDIT 2: Yup, I stopped streaming for a bit, then streamed 2 hours later, and then the spike came again... I'm sad ;(
EDIT 3: Tried again 5 minutes later, and it's fine again... I'm confused now... Uploading logs.
