Hey,

So when im Streaming my Stream is stuttering for some people despite the fact that everything is ok on my side. No Frame drops, constant fps and my internet is fine too.
So when im watching my stream its stuttering too but only on chrome, when i use firefox its not stuttering. Can someone explain to me why this is or is there anything I can do to fix that?
I have a highlight where it is stuttering at some points on chrome... not on firefox. http://www.twitch.tv/lilfelix01/v/39094296

thx in Advance

Felix

First, lets define stuttering. stuttering is when 60fps does not look like 60fps but instead looks like 20 or 30fps.

buffering is when a stream pauses and continues on for a client.


first, you have a very strong cpu, change to x264 in the encoding tab. NVENC looks aweful compared especially since you have a nice CPU.

second, dont watch your own stream while you encode. just use a popout chat. low capture rates andin-game stuttering can happen just because f this here.

chrome is a know hog when it comes to twitch and youtube and is never recommended.

Edge and internet explorer is the best when considering hardware decoding which will free up your CPU to encode and game. so if you have to watch your own stream, use one of those browsers instead.

firefox is still worse compared to the two browsers above.

once you've done the above, post a new logfile of the results. I bet we can even drop your preset for even better quality.



Other thoughts, check your mic and headset's audio format. are they set to 44100Hz or 48000Hz, if 48000hz, change OBS in the encoding tab to 48000Hz for audio format


change scene buffering to 700ms in the advanced tab.
