For some reason I found out that my stream lags and its' choppy becasue the screen region being captured is laggy, why is that? I tried deleteing screen region adn doing everything from scratch, and it worked once, i can see my previewed screen region and it's smooth, so when i ran the game it was smooth. but when i tried to fix my sound and i closed the broadcast and started it back up, it didn't work again =[ why is that?! It was not like this before.

Fixed my problem by unchecking the box for "optimize for motion capture". When that box is checked for me the preview screen in xplit is pure choppiness, but when it is unchecked it is a normal frame rate. Tested with a stream and was able to do 720p smooth at 30fps. Fuck yeah.

interesting ill try that tomorrow, because most people recommend that box be checked O.O but i guess now it being unchecked is better. lame, how come everyone else does not have this problem when they stream, like the real good streamers, seems like they can just turn on the stream everytime and have it work.

I have problems where sometiems it disables my mic, my sound is very choppy on stream, or my ventrilo cannot be heard. and also after opening xsplit whenever i do right click options on windows, some tabs stay shown and displayed on the screen until i flash the resolution. it bugs me.

This has fixed it for me!

Back to 720p streaming! Thanks for finding this :D

I'm looking for help streaming 1080p. My specs are as follows:

Phenom II X6 1090T @ 4.5GHz
Radeon 5970
SC2 @ 1080p Extreme graphics
30/6 internet connection

I'm currently streaming in 720p, which is fine as far as quality goes. However, when playing Diablo II it will crash my internet connection. Seems to work fine with SC2 so far.

That being said, I'd like to run 1080p because I know my setup can handle it, but no matter what settings I try I get pretty massive stutter on justin.tv when streaming. My in-game FPS stays 80+, and according to my bandwidth monitor I'm only ever using about 2000 upload tops.

The settings I tried 1080p on were 2000-5000 bitrate, 25-35 fps, and quality 6-10. Nothing seems to fix the stutter issues.


Just an update on my efforts here to get a 1080p stream working. I've narrowed down the issue to frame rate in XSplit. If I try to stream 1080p over 15 FPS, the stream will stutter every 2-3 seconds. Note that my CPU usage is under 40%, GPU usage is under 70%, and RAM usage is under 60% so I'm not bottlenecked by anything on my end.

I'm starting to think the issue is XSplit itself, as starting it up instantly cuts my FPS in half locally (even when not streaming) but it's not actually adding any extra strain to my computer. It just seems to kill local performance for no reason.

This happens to me too. I can't see where's the bottleneck.


I figured out what the issue is, if you're still having trouble.

So basically, the problem is that XSplit absolutely sucks with streaming 720p/1080p. It's amazing for lower qualities, but I switched over to FMLE and I can stream dual 1080p streams now with no trouble at all and also much better quality than XSplit.

Basically, you still use XSplit as the capture device and for resolution/framerate, but all of the encoding is handled by FMLE. I didn't think XSplit was the problem since everyone keeps saying how much better it is than FMLE, but apparently that's only for non-HQ streams. A few hours browsing around google turned up quite a bit of information on how XSplit can't handle HD streaming yet.

So, if you need any help with setup just toss me a PM. XSplit will probably work better once it's out of beta, but for now it looks like the only way to stream decent HD is with FMLE as the encoder.



Even after the recent update it is still pretty awful at any resolutions that have a dimension above 1024. I can stream anything under that perfectly fine but if I increase it at all it becomes choppy as hell. I want to stream at 720 but Xsplit just can't seem to handle it. I tried FME in combination with Xsplit and I can run a 30 fps 720 stream perfectly smooth without even getting close to maxing out the CPU. Dunno what is causing that problem. I would prefer to just run the single program.

Mallard, try right clicking on the screen region and unchecking the two top settings.

where you set your max kbps, to the left of that is Quality, try turning that up or see if you can bump your resolution 1 size up
Also you should try and use the same streaming ration as your desktop
Resolution 960x600 ratio 8:5 /my desktop 1680x1050 also 8:5
if the resolution you want isnt in the list "Tool - Settings - put a check on the one you want" and it will show up on the list out infront under "View - Resolutions"

Exact same thing happened to me. A few things changed in it, but search around in the settings, I just got mine back to the smoothness that was there before the update. I even upgraded the quality of the stream.

What I did was go to the settings on the screen region, they changed some things there, so I checked optimize for motion picture, for text resize, and the other one there don't remember what it was. I also upped my resolution but put my "quality" to 1, and changed the video encoder from xsplit default to fast I think, and made my max kbp upload 500 with a buffer of 500. I have a really shitty system so if yours is better, start from there. Audio is either 32k or 16k, not very high. I will stream soon if you wanna check it out.

I have not had this problem personally, but my buddy tells me you should do this.
1) Ctrl Alt Delete and close this process on Xsplit
2) Close any browser or media
3) Start up xsplit and broardcast, start browser / media

For me personally, if i try and start xsplit i have to have my browser closed, other then that no problems.


try this above.
My bug and solution:
Cant start up xsplit while my chrome is open on something, i have to close, open xsplit open browser

Update to this thread:

I was trying to figure out the best streaming resolution/quality/fps combo for my machine, and so I had several screen regions selected, though only 1 was checked. It looks like those screen regions are still being considered for capture, however, so at one point I had 5 screen regions total with 1 checked and my computer was outputting like 5 fps. If you have multiple screen regions saved, delete them, because although they aren't checked they still contribute to slowdown and I'm not sure anybody really knew this. Try to only have 1 saved screen region when streaming, and delete the ones your aren't using.

Sorry if I'M a little offtopic but here is and headsup for you guys that thinks you have to low uploadspeed to stream.

[image loading]
That is my results, not that good.

But I am able to stream in 720p with decent quality. When the game is set on low it looks totally fine. But when I set the game to medium you will see that there is a bit lack of bandwidth. But overall it is all watchable.

Settings in xsplit:
Format: 1280 x 720
Quality: 7
VBV max Bitrate: 349
VBV Buffer: 698

Audio
Format: 22.050 KHz, 16bit stereo
Bitrate: 48000
Codec: MP3

Hope this helps someone.

Hi guys.

I'm trying to get xsplit working but I'm having problems with sound when I have SC2 running. If I'm only running iTunes (for example), everything works great, but if I start up SC2, the sound suddenly starts to stutter, like someone talking through a fan.

Any thoughts? Much obliged!

Settings:

Video:
Format: 1280x720
Quality: 10
VBV max Bitrate: 400

Audio
Format: 44.1K, 16bit stereo
Bitrate: 64000
Codec: MP3

I have an i7 processor, Radeon 5870 video card, and 12 GB of RAM.
