Hi,

I have downloaded OBS to try and stream on twitch, and I set everything up just as the guide suggested on the twitch website, but every time I start a stream in the OBS software, I go to check my twitch channel and it still says I am offline and not streaming.

Thanks a lot.

post a link to your logfile. it can be found in the help menu of OBS. copy the link and post the link here.
 
Slower preset in use

You have changed the default preset to llhq. Using slower presets can result in late frames and high CPU usage / low FPS. You should only change the preset if you are sure you have the CPU power to spare.

Wireless detected

You appear to be streaming over a wireless connection. While this can be OK, keep in mind that interference from other radio sources or obstacles can cause your connection to momentarily stall, resulting in dropped frames or disconnects. A wired connection is strongly recommended for a reliable stream.

Possible slow server

The server you are streaming to (rtmp://live-lhr.twitch.tv/app) took 899 ms to connect. This may mean your connection or the server is slow, or the server is far away from you. If you are using twitch.tv, you may want to try using JTVPing to find an optimal server.

Bad server selected

The server you are streaming to (rtmp://live-lhr.twitch.tv/app) took a very long time to connect. This could be due to a poor connection, server problems or streaming to a server that is a long distance away from you. Streaming to servers that are closer to you often results in the best results. If you are using twitch.tv, try using JTVPing to find an optimal server.

Hook conflict detected

Game capture detected a hook conflict but was unable to determine which application was responsible. Try closing any other applications that may be injecting into your game, such as FRAPS, D3DGear, MSI Afterburner, AMD Raptr / Gaming Evolved, Action!, TeamSpeak/Mumble Overlays or any other kind of FPS monitor or overlay program

Code:
keyint: -1

you aren't usings key frames in your stream with NVENC. I would:
1. set frame interval to 2 your NVENC preset has changed key frames (aka keyint to -1) which twitch and flash need to see your stream. key frame interval:auto will not work. you need to set it to 2.



2. change to x264, your cpu should be alright with this and the stream will look a lot better. if you have high cpu usage reported, you can use NVENC.

Code:
RTMPPublisher::SocketLoop: Stalled for 2100 ms to write 434608 bytes (buffer: 0 / 438272), unstable connection?
3. lower your bitrate to 2500, your stream bitrate is to high for your upload to twitch, this could be just your ISP package or it could be your connection through your ISP to twitch. either way, lower it.

you cant expect to have a good full stream with a shared internet.

If you can work out a time-slot or something would be your best bet.

but even at that, your upload is the most important to streaming so work on that because even at your top results there you are not even in the ball park to be able to stream.

What I recommended to you is 2500 bitrate, which is basically 2.5Mbps upload that you will need to sustain throughout your stream.

your top results was 146bitrate,which is roughly 0.145Mbps or 146kbps as it says there,
