any ideas?


Me and a friend both have this exact problem... someone help plz.

And switching to screen mode isn't a good alternative... the stream flashes very rapidly w/ screen mode.

Hey , I've got problems streaming SC2 and I really want to start !! Can someone with knowledge of streaming in SC2 help me out?

Two problems really (one is general):
1) there's really random white square on the top right corner of my stream... NO IDEA WHAT IT IS
2) streaming SC2 lags like fuck, and when I go into full-windows mode (SC2 options) or w/e, I can see my taskbar while in game .

Can anyone help me out?!

Try opening SC2 after clicking game and then while in SC2 press CTRL+F1.

I also have this thing where I go to windowed fullscreen mode, and it displays my taskbar at the bottom, can't really play like that because then mouse scroll doesn't work. Do I need to stream in windowed fullscreen mode?

**tried turning off windowed fullscreen, then my stream started flickering**

When you start recording and you have those bars that block scrolling, do the following:

1. Zoom in a few times, then back out to maximum. That changes the green bars to little black ones for some reason. Once you have the black bars...

2. When you enter an ACTUAL game, alt tab out to another application, maximize it, then go back to SC2. The bars should be gone and scrolling should work.

This works for me in Windows 7 using Procaster in Screen mode, SC2 in Windowed Fullscreen

I get the same problem as amanet sometimes, although I think I may have just had my settings way too high.

What is a good/minimum upload speed for streaming + playing online?

[image loading]


I have great download speed, but is ~.5Mb/s gonna be too slow?

Yeah, how do you have like....audio from your microphone, and then the game sounds at the same time?

Do you just turn on Ventrilo and then you start talking? Or what?

You're gonna have to set your bitrate way below 500 Kbps. Maybe 300-400 Kbps max. It's best to get faster internet.

Is there demand for more streams or are people just going to the featured streams mostly?

I had this problem a lot, if you go into task manager (Control Alt Delete) do to processes, find procaster and terminate it. After that open up SC then Procaster :D
You make it sound like there's a correlation between what should happen and what actually happens. I mean, life is chaotic and it's often unfair. I know it is for me.

The thread kinda lost me a bit, if anyone have a time to help me with a complete set up so i can stream sc2, would be great. Below is my connect speed information i would like to stream in the best quality as possible (1080p) if possible.

Thanks in advance for all replies and help.

I've tried livestreaming and everything is working perfect. I just have 2 questions. Is there a way to remove old on-demand videos? I have some testing videos that I would like to remove.

Also, is there a way to remove sound recording of Ventrilo but keep recording of itunes + Starcraft 2? I can remove my mic which stops recording of me speaking but is there a way to remove ventrilo so that it doesn't stream my friends talking?
