Well, as far as the connection goes -- that log is actually pretty good. 0 dropped frames. I had a look at a past broadcast of yours for a few minutes and it seemed perfectly fine. Well, as far as lag is concerned anyhow.

Given the fact you're streaming to AMS, I am going to assume you're European. For the record, Twitch has been having some issues in Europe lately so it could simply be related to that. Again, your VODs are fine, your log is fine. Everything seems to be in working order.

Hello i have same problem like here...

I have 2-3 second lags like 15-20 seconds in part...

I have tried different versions of OBS, i have changed the server locations, may other options like kb:s and screen resolutions and nothing helps..

Anyone knows what is the problem..

Yes, that is too much for the average viewer. Twitch also doesn't like when people use over 3000-3500kbit/s bitrate.

i switched it to 2500 kb and still little lag.. 2000kb nothing..

I have VDSL 100/100 so i can give really big bitrate..

Paulius9, Asbe - I was watching some vods you made and didn't particularly see any problems. If possible you may want to point to a specific vod and time within the vod that demonstrates the problem.

If you're lagging in your game (high ping caused by streaming), turn on "minimize network impact" in broadcast settings. Note that this can increase the likelyhood for frame drops if you're using too much bandwidth, but reduces network impact of the stream upon other things on your computer (such as league).

Now, if your viewers are experiencing lag, that's another story, usually just caused by frame drops or high bitrate.

Asbe - noticed you were streaming at 4000. 4000 is a bit high and can cause some viewers to get lag. Reduce it to 3000 or less, 4000 is probably too high and may cause some viewers to experience lag.
