Given your current hardware, if you aren't happy with the quality there isn't much you can adjust to make it look better while staying within Twitch's streaming requirements. You should actually be looking at downscaling your stream resolution to something lower like 720p to improve the quality. Other things to adjust under Settings > Advanced for general Twitch compliance:

- Set your profile to main
- Set your keyframe interval to 2 seconds
- Enable CFR

I have a simpel question and i dont what to make for that a extra thread so:

I have two scenes set up. One for "Please wait" , and one for the aktual game. each one with multible sorces.

Now i what to hold the viewers in the "Please Wait" scene while i setting up/adjusting the game scene without showing. Like position and size.
How can i do something like that?

Batto, this is not currently possible, but should be when the OBS rewrite is available. For now you'll have to set up your scenes beforehand. Also in the future please don't hijack someone else's thread just because you think your question is simple. It isn't at all related to what legendaryflower is asking.
