Question / Help Video freezes after a second of recording-live stream

Whenever I record a game(any game, tried it with a few), I can save locally just fine, video runs fine and dandy. However, when I try to stream to twitch, I press Start Streaming on OBS, and it loads like one second worth of video, then the video freezes, but sound continues. I believe every once in a great while it moves, so it might just be enormous lag? I'm not really sure.

Is there something I'm missing?

usually when the sound continues and the video stutters while you dont drop frames its a twitch problem ... all you can do is change the ingest server and/or lower bitrate

Your CPU isn't powerful enough to encode at 720p60 since it is dual-core. You're going to need to downscale your resolution and drop your FPS to 30 or maybe even 25. If things still aren't working, raise your x264 preset to superfast or ultrafast.

Thanks, Dodgepong I dropped it from 60 FPS (I don't remember putting it on 60 lol) As I said, I dropped it from 60 to 30, Unfortunately It didn't work, but then I dropped it to 25 fps I went like ''If this doesn't work I'm uninstalling obs'', I set it to 25 fps and applied it, Ta dah It worked After Hours of research putting fps down by 35 worked LOL Thanks so much!
