    So I just started streaming after months of making excuses and pushing it off b/c of my complete lack of knowledge. Your channel changed all that. You helped me get my stream setup and running. I've been streaming now for only a week and have already had comments from viewers saying they were surprised that it's not been longer b/c of how professional the stream looks. I can't not thank you enough for giving me the confidence to do this! This week has been a blast and I am constantly looking at all your video's to try to improve my setup even more. You have a big fan here my friend!!! Thanks again Pete!

    So I came across this channel 9 months ago and I thank you for what you are doing. I've looked through the videos a few times now and came across an issue that could throw someone for a loop. Let me explain:
    Last week I upped my Download and Upload Speeds from my ISP. Got my new rig all set up and ready to stream. Looked back at all the helpful videos of yours to get OBS set up once again. Then went to do my test stream for checking bit rate and dropped frames via the Twitch test and it came back fine except for 3 hiccups over the 3-hour test but overall performance was good. The next day I went live to stream a raid for someone that was sick so they could at the very least watch and cheer us on.
    That is when disaster struck, constant buffering, choppy frame rate. Did another twitch test and that came back fine. So I was totally lost on what was going on reset my Modem, router, switch, rebooted my PC. Tried streaming again same deal. This led me to do speed tests and that's where I saw something. My upload speed was not what it should be, it was in the KB/s range of what is at max a 20 MB/s connection.
    Techs came out we bypassed the router and plugged right into the modem same thing was happening replaced the modem worked fine for about a day. They had to come back yet again swapped out the modem, checked line noise all within normal tolerances but this time when we plugged the cat6 into the back of the modem all the issues where gone. Ok done deal let me plug everything back into the normal layout and that's when the other shoe dropped. You guessed it the router was bad as well.
    It took about a week and a half to get that all worked out. So just because the Twitch test says you are set up right until you are really sending actual video streams you might not know there is an issue and it might not be with your settings. Take the time to find where the problem might be at it could very well be a modem, router or any of the other network connections you might have that are at fault.
    Again thank you, Pete, for all that you are doing you are a great asset to new streamers where they are just doing it for pleasure or for a living!

    @JocoseJikininki 6 лет назад +30

    I had dropped frames, reduced bitrate way down to like 800 and went up until I started dropping frames then I reduced it a little bit and voila. Sadly I live in South Africa where the bandwidth isn’t particularly good - I can get around 3000kbps and a 50 quality rating on a good day but yeh it’s not a huge issue if you’re at 480 or 720 p. Hope it helps any of you guys

  • @CDome
    @CDome 6 лет назад +2

    Great vid, useful tools for sure. It should be noted that even if your test shows 'excellent' quality with no changes to be made on one day, another day's connection could result in lesser quality.
    Your connection will depend on your ISP (internet service provider) ultimately, and if there are heavier loads then your connection may suffer.
    For example, I streamed for 7 hours at 720p, 30fps, 3500kbps with 0 dropped frames. The next day I could barely manage 2800Kbps with 5% dropped frames. Just food for thought. Good luck!

    I have trouble with a certain kind of lag, when I play minecraft and fly around suddenly in the stream in jumps back a few frames, it's kind of tearing the picture. I don't know if it's my bitrate or something else, when I play everything is stable and none of my hardware is fully used. It happens when I move really quick in the game or look around fast.

    Hello Pete, as I've been watching your videos to get me started on twitch, helped me a lot in many different ways, wanted to say thank you first of all :) Now I'd like to ask, would it be possible to create a video on "How to chose a bot moderator on twitch and how to properly set it up/use it ?", I'm asking because I've stumbled upon that very recently as I changed my bot and actually noticed that finding the right one that suits you and how to properly set it up isn't as easy as one could think.
