I have checked pretty much checked out all forums and threads for any advices which could be the solution to my problems, but still not any luck.
When I stream using OBS, I've noticed that my recording are running smoothly, but when I checked out my own stream (through my 3g mobile network, not the same network I am streaming from), I experience moments of lagging. It could go smoothly for some seconds, before eventually start buffering(or something) and the stream stops.

Could anyone please help me with this? I would appreciate it very much :) Thx in advance
Btw, would I benefit from using my integrated videocard instead of my dedicated videocard? I got a pretty decent CPU and a rather bad videocard as you can see out of the log.

Anyway, thanks for all replies

I don't think the Intel iGPU is going to work better than your discrete GPU.

It's likely that your 3G can't stream the bitrate you have on your stream, if you have little to no dropped frames in OBS then you should be for the most part good, unless you have viewers saying that its skipping/lagging I wouldn't be worried.

 

[fredrik johansen]

In the bottom bar during streaming, there is no dropped frames (at least that is what the program tells me). So you dont think of any reason why my stream could lag for other viewers? Btw, my internet connection is 25 mb\ps and 5 mb\ps

 

[qhgf]

When you are watching your stream is it on 3G or through your wireless?

If it is dropping frames for viewers then really your best option is to follow the thread that sapiens posted earlier

I think the issue is exactly what I linked you, which has nothing to do with dropped frames.

 

[fredrik johansen]

I will check that out :) I have also seen comments regarding Quickview instead of x264, that this could help the issue about lagging. Any opinion on that?

 

[Sapiens]

Quick Sync wouldn't help because this isn't a system performance issue. Buffering is what happens when the data from Twitch can't get to a viewer fast enough, which can happen for a variety of reasons and is explained in the thread linked above.

 

[fredrik johansen]

Ok, if you say so. Thx for all replies :)

 

[fredrik johansen]

One more thing.. I have a question about my router which are connected between my cable modem and my computer. I am currently on a wired network, btw. This router has a data rate up to 300 mbps, and I wonder if you think this is enough or If this router could be the cause to the lag I've mention before. Thx in advance

 

[Sapiens]

You're streaming at just under 2 Mbps and aren't dropping any frames, so no, the router is not the issue. Again, please refer to the thread I linked above.
