Hi!

I just wanted to be sure which server to pick for optimal connection for me and the viewers!

I took a test and I don't really know which one to pick.

I live in Sweden by the way.

Internet changes all the time. your closest server is fine but you really want to go with a server with the highest quality then look at the one with the lowest RTT (ping) this is, of course of the ingest that meets your upload needs (all of them in this case).

I would run the long test to validate results and rerun if you have issues.

But in terms of the result of the test, which one should I pick, the one closest to me or should I pick the one with the most quality?
run the long test and post again. I personally go with the one with the highest quality but in your case it really doesn't matter since all the EU ingests are above 90%. so ping in this case 15ms really doesn't make a difference from an ingest with 45ms ping, unless those ingests have more hops.

As a fellow Swede I try streaming to the Stockholm ingest from time to time, but I always drop a lot of frames (not reported in OBS. just choppy non-buffering end result on twitch) or other strange happenings. Running Amsterdam instead have always worked flawlessly for me.
