Which is a crying shame, cause viewers are really missing out on some really good quality 2000k streams. It's a pity I can only go up to 500 kbps. And it's 500 kbps whether you're verified or not. Only premium users can go above. | ||

The stream is great in the site but its a little bit laggy in the game and i am not sure that in iccup it will be good if there is lag for me. Which setting i should lower to improve the quality of play int he game ? Thanks in advance ! You should just set starcraft and camtasia recorder to high priority in task manager. You need more than 1 core to run flash media live encoder. At least that's my experience. I use a Core 2 Duo. | ||

At least that's my experience. I use a Core 2 Duo. Sorry, but this a noob question about computers. I have a Core 2 Duo as well, but do I have to manually set the Media Live Encoder to run on one core and Starcraft on the other? Or does the computer set that automatically? I have no idea what I'm doing wrong because I lag like crazy whenever I start running my LS session. Basically, Starcraft is unplayable.  | ||

I would not recommend assigning cores if you don't know what you're doing. It's efficient enough to just let your computer assign cores. If you're getting lag in Starcraft, up its priority only, and shut down everything save for FMLE, Camtasia, and SC. This includes all background processes. If it's still lagging... You need a better computer. | ||

What you want to do if put sc on High and FMLE on Above Normal in terms of affinity. But overall quality wont change as you can't really modify the important values in their encoder, 500kbps at 480x360 is actually more then enough quality if we are talking about a proper encoding instead of a live encode. | ||

I have been using 248kbps, 200 video and 48 mono audio for 560x420 output size. the problem is that if i setup more than 48 in audio the audio lags, and if I put more video I am not sure but people with not good connection get lag even though people with DSL higher than 5MB see it perfectly. | ||

Don't worry about viewers. You have to have terrible internet to not be able to view 248 kbps. Stream at the highest you can stream without lagging. I'd recommend Stereo Audio for Audio cause Mono just sucks. | ||

I'm trying to stream my desktop- not StarCraft yet, and I've got the resolution in Camtasia/FMLE set to input 1024x768 and output 320x240... I've set the bitrate to the lowest possible 100kbps just to see if it works... it does, but when I go into livestream and preview the "external feed", it shows a black screen.(not offline, just a black screen) The same happens when I try to view it from livestream.com/loser777 FMLE shows my desktop in realtime just fine, and its connected to the server and everything (it even says "streaming to primary..." | ||

Well non premium users are capped at a 500kbp/s stream so really might as well use the whole 500kbp/s it's odd that not even half you're capability would lag your transmission. If the audio lags i'm sure there is some settings to manually increase your buffer to be larger. | ||

If you're having lag issues, I'd recommend lowering the bitrate instead of lifting it | ||

So now in AFML there is no option to get the sounds I hear onto the stream, the only option I have is the Microphone for the headset. So is there any way to get what I hear onto the stream without getting a new headset that I plug directly into the soundcard? (Since I kinda destroyed my old headset in a moment of nerdrage during a big loss streak a few days ago lol) USB Headsets always have a 'built in sound card', and shows up as a seperate device in windows. Should be easy to mix mic and output with Virtual Audio Cables in this case. | ||
