When I load up ustream and broadcast from it, the player automactially asks for permissions to use my laptop webcam and the settings are not blank like yours.... I dont understand. http://img140.imageshack.us/i/helptgz.jpg/ If Ustream asks for your webcam/audio then FMLE isn't sending the stream to ustream correctly. Close the browser window with the Ustream broadcaster in it. Go back to FMLE and stop the stream. Finally, DISCONNECT the stream by a button on the right side of FMLE. Start the stream again, it will reconnect automatically. Don't connect the stream manually, just hit the big green Start button on FMLE. Finally, start the broadcaster. Only start the broadcaster AFTER FMLE is streaming. On May 10 2010 11:38 Cirno wrote: I have a question. I followed the guide and got it all setup but I have a desktop resolution of 1920x1200 and when I set the output settings to that the stream lags horribly. My computer doesnt lag and starcraft 2 runs perfectly fine but the stream is super laggy. I assume thats because you cant stream at a resolution like that but I cant play in window mode because the cursor always moves outside of the window because theres no real monitor edge to move the camera over. Is there any way I can get this to work properly? If the stream is super laggy and your computer is ok, that means your internet connection can't handle the stream. Try using lower settings. I had to do an input res of 1920x1080 but an output res of 1024x570 ish. You may have to go even lower too, my internet is pretty beastly and I still couldn't get max res.

I'm using an AMD Phenom X4 965 Black Edition. It is an equivalent processor to the i5. I recommend AMD processors if you're on a budget, they run a little cooler and cost a little less for the same performance. Intel though has the best high end processors of course because AMD isn't even in that market.

This truely depends on the capabilities of your video card. Some video cards have no problems in windowed mode, others do. On May 10 2010 12:40 slained wrote: any idea how to record hd vods? can ustream do this? The best way to do this is offline. You can use this same setup and send the FMLE output to a file. Just set your video output to max settings. Another easier way if you don't want to set all this stuff up is a program called FRAPS. ^^ this | ||

Unfortunately it sounds like you both have kinda crappy internet connections. Take the test and post your results: ![[image loading]](http://www.speedtest.net/result/810407319.png) choose a city closest to you and choose "copy forum link" at the end. Alternatively, don't use VH Screen Capture, use manycam... its very simple to use, no directions needed. | ||

 Theoretically it should be enough for a 800x600 resolution stream, but try dropping your bitrate to 300 and FPS to 15.. Work your way up from those numbers until you see choppiness again. BTW I'm just guessing here.. I really don't know how different internet connections affect streams. | ||

If you have a fast, modern processor and want to try high resolution streaming, follow OP's guide. If you read the first two paragraphs I've covered the reason for the guide. Livestream has been crapping out on -EVERYONE- lately. Thus the mass exodus to ustream. I personally prefer Procaster myself due to ease of use, but if the end product is choppy and laggy due to livestream's servers then no amount of adjusting the source will fix it. If and when livestream gets their act together I'll be first to jump ship. On May 12 2010 12:23 Ch00 wrote: OP's guide? do you have a link? OP = original poster  | ||

Especially the audio. | ||
