Hey all,
So whenever I live stream, my webcam stutters. I have a logitech c270. I am posting the issue here because it only happens when I live stream. Whenever I record a video with the webcams software, it doesn't seem to stutter. Only when I stream, it doesn't matter what live streaming program it is, it always stutters when I stream.
I can confirm this because when I check the option "Disable Encoder while previewing" I don't see it stutter. I've updated all of the webcam drivers. Any ideas? Thanks guys. :D
This also started happening since I've upgraded to Windows 8. A few days ago I went up again to 8.1, and that didn't fix it.
Edit: Forgot the Log
