Question / Help Stream lagging for viewers!

[rfalkner]

Hey Guys.

Im currently streaming SC2 - WoL, and some of my viewers are getting lagspikes (only video) during the stream.

My computer specs are:

CUP: Intel i5-3570 3.40GHz
RAM: 8GB DDR3 HYPER-X KINGSTON
HDD: 128GB SSD
GFX: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660

My internet speed is following:

Stream settings:

Max bitrate is set to: 3000
I might be missing something in this description.

What im looking for is the stream settings obv, which gives my viewers the best possible experience. With the settings im running atm i have no game-lag, only some video lagspikes for the viewers.

Thanks in advance

Resolution 1080p (without dowscale)
Maxbitrate 3000, buffer 3000
(you can check CBR)

The two main things that would cause viewers to lag is too high of a bit rate and VBR. The best thing you can do is enabled CBR and lower your bit rate to a more common-denominator point where people can download your stream fast enough to watch it. For 540p, 2000/2000 should be plenty, so you can start there.
