Question / Help TwitchTV is pissing me off

Hello,

I've been streaming since more than a year and recently Twitch has become a pain in a ass.
I can't stream properly anymore.
I need your help because I don't know what to do anymore.
One day I can stream for more than 4 hours without any frames drop or issues and the other day I'm being disconnected every 10mins.
And when rarely everything is working some people are saying my stream is lagging/skipping (not everyone).

I have definitely the upload to be able to stream in a good 720p.


Here a log, I did stop after doing nothing and still being disconnected (was encoding at 600kbps)

I did try every EU servers all the same.
I also tried different send buffer (also on and off), but I have to admit not understanding how it works, and why it has been reduced to a recommended value of 32k/8k to 1460.

I'm pretty sure this is not an issue with OBS or my computer/internet.
I just don't know what to do anymore. All help is appreciated.
I'm looking for alternative to Twitch with maybe better EU servers, if you have some good streaming website, please share with me.

Thanks for reading and sorry for my not so good English.

The frame dropping in the app is still not great -- I changed it back to older better-working code in 0.447a, but it still has some issues that we're going to try to fix in the next update. That may or may not be your issue, but 0.446a was causing some people some problems because I accidentally left a tweak to it in there that I shouldn't have.

Twitch also has been known to have issues with their EU servers as well.

I just streamed for like 3-4hrs without any frame drops with the new version.
So that was not only Twitch fault but also OBS apparently ?
Sorry and thanks.

Yes there were big issues with the framedrop code. The current version has a workaround, but it's getting worked on again for future versions.
