Question / Help Viewer performance issue

Hello, I recently got my OBS setup and I have just 1 issue with it. I have a few buddies that were watching my stream for me and seeing how the quality is as I tinkered with it of course. 1 person says they can watch my stream just fine at 1080p, and a couple other people are having issues watching it, it gets choppy for them and such. I have my bitrate set at 4250, is there a work around to this so I can broaden my audience?

http://www.twitch.tv/muraza is my channel, playing back the videos is always smooth, at least for me.


Quality balance: 10
Max bitrate / Buffer size: 4250
Native Resolution, @30fps
Process Priority Class: Normal (use multithreaded optimizations enabled)
x264 cpu preset: veryfast


Computer specs so you know what I am working with
Have 50dl/6up connection
AMD FX-8350 4.3GHz
8GB RAM
GTX 660

Become a partner so you have multiple transcode options, or stream at a lower resolution and bitrate.

Odds are they people with trouble watching can't handle the bitrate you have set

With my computer specs and everything would there be any other work around, so I don't have to sacrifice quality. 720p is kinda fuzzy, 1080p just so sharp.

You're dropping alot of frames because of the connection, change to another server and lower the bitrate/bufsize to 3456 and the quality to 7

Alright thanks for the help, will give this a shot at my raid tonight and see how everything goes. Will post back :3

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Didn't really have many viewers, but on my end it was pretty smooth and I would imagine it is more forgiving to watch now since the settings are lowered. Thanks for the help again!
