Sorry to also hijack your thread Palaber, I'm looking for some streaming advice too.
I tried to set up OBS today to stream Planet Coaster to Twitch with seemingly no luck at all. To start with I was getting a serious lack of upload and download speed but then I discovered my dad was creating a bottleneck in the network by copying large amounts of files over LAN. [mad]
Now that I've got him told off though it's having serious frame-rate issues and seems to disconnect every 2 minutes or so. OBS tells me it's had a "bitrate overload" and I am really not sure how to fix that. Planet Coaster doesn't seem to be causing the issue as I tried streaming Notepad++ (pretty boring stream I know [haha]) to see what would happen with no other CPU intensive programs running and the issue persisted. I've tried using a delay and setting the output resolution really tiny but nothing seems to fix it.
I ran a speed test and this is the result I got:
https://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/4940708. I think that's about half the speed of what I should be getting for download from my ISP (supposedly it's fibre), I'm not sure about upload though, I'm new to streaming so I don't really know what's normal. Is there anything I should be trying to see if I can improve the performance a bit?
