I am trying to stream without the black bars. You know how when you use Camtasia+Adobe Media when you stream you get two black bars, one on the right and one on left when you watch your own stream. Does Xsplit + Uscreencapture get ride of those 2 black bars? I thought it does. So yeah.

You get those black bars no matter what when watching the recorded videos because the video player on twitch is set to 16: 9 or 16: 10 aspect ratio by default (not sure which one) and you stream in 4:3 aspect ratio so you'll get those black bars on the side. I see your stream on teamliquid is also not set to 4:3 which you can do by going to your stream settings page and changing aspect ratio to 4:3.

oo so it's impossible to stream bw without those black bars? I thought I saw someone stream bw without the black bars. Like their BW take up the whole stream when you watch it on twitch.tv/stream.


Most likely because they're playing windowed mode and using capture screen region on xsplit.

i found one mistake in this guide. Image format should be 32 bit RGB in Camtasia, when is 16 RGB then will be black screen also H.264 codec is faster than VP6, for audio best settings is 44khz, mono 80 or 96 kbps (for stereo min 128 kbps). I have 96 kbbs and sounds like this http://pl.twitch.tv/mca64/b/320641195

What's your hardware spec? Also for the fps settings, did you change it on both camtasia and fmle?

Laptop Toshiba L40 with 2GB ram and Intel Core Duo T2300 1,66 Ghz cpu. Fps in camtasia and in Adobe are the same. For 15fps cpu usuage looks like this [image loading]

Not sure if your laptop is good enough for streaming BW with higher framerate. It's an office laptop, which means that the RAM and other specs are good enough to run office-related softwares. I mean, it runs Doom 3 at 3fps.

Running BW will be no problem; however, using FMLE+Camtasia along with BW will be a huge problem.

Another question. How do I stream with me talking and can play music at same time? I can talk and stream at the same time but I can't hear my voice when the music is playing unless I SPEAK a lot louder than the music playing?

Turn the volume down on your music player?

Can you link the recorded video and time frame so I can hear what you're talking about?

Strange because VP6 was less CPU intensive on all three computers i tested on.

Check your PM.

Turn up microphone boost and microphone levels? This is a legit suggestion, not trolling.

ok i resolved problem... Problem was with slow graphic card, where 32 bit colour depth is max 10 fps.
For more fps, 16bit colours o Winows 7 are needed:
- AFME 2.5 (3.1 doesnt works)
- Camtasia 5.0 (4.0 doesnt works)

Camtasia live output must be runned before AFME is started, if not there will be still 32bit output even when 16bit is selected

I tried that and still having the problem of messy colours or 90% black screen only when game starts.

I also tried to apply blizzard color patch but it didn't help. i'm using AFME 2.5 and camtasia 5. any ideas?

Can you link to your stream?

Updated OP to include Xsplit with uscreencapture fullscreen streaming and also changed formatting which hopefully makes it easier to read.
