Question / Help What should my OBS settings be? :)

denn4550 · Jan 30, 2014

Hey guys!

I verly want to begin streaming some DayZ SA, but i just can't get the right settings :(! What should i set bitrate and things like that to? My internet is pretty slow 20DOWN/17.UP.

You can find my pc specs here - http://www.twitch.tv/freshytv

- 480P WOULD BE OK IF ITS RUNNING WITHOUT STUTTER! :) Doesn't have to be 720p or higher. Only if its running without probs :)

You'll need to post an OBS log, though. http://obsproject.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=97

alpinlol · Jan 30, 2014

okay i'd say start with a 1200 bitrate with 540p 30 fps and preset on faster maybe you can even go with fast.

audio bitrate i'd go with 64

still like to see a log... but whatever test those settings for a little 10 minute session or even more and then make sure to post a log of it, also make sure to check your ping if you get any high ping spikes

make sure that you but 2 second for the keyframe interval and use the main profile since twitch kinda wants you to use those settings.
