I'm having a problem where everything (xsplit and DXtory) work up until the point where I enter a SC2 game or replay. Nothing crashes, it just displays a black screen until I exit the game replay, and everything starts working again.

Turns out that my problem is actually that SC2 stops streaming every time I alt tab, immediately resuming once I tab back in. Anyone got a fix for this?

Does this behavior also happen without using DXTory? And what is your "window mode" set to in SC2?

You're trying to stream 500 kbit/s (+32 kbit/s audio) on a 400 kbit/s upload. That won't work
Try streaming to a different server (San Franciso may be the closest, but it seems the vast majority uses that server, so it may pay off to try a different server due to ingestion).

Also, in the latest XSplit released there's a "Test bandwidth" button in the Twitch.tv settings window - use it, and set your combined bitrate (video+audio) to just below the test result. Note: It is important to do this while playing SC2 or running a good high-food action-packed replay.

I strongly encourage people not to blindly trust the result of Speedtest.net. It is only a rough estimate on the bandwidth to whatever server you choose, but it will never be the actual streaming server at Twitch.tv. Therefore use the far more precise measurement feature (the "Test Bandwidth" button) that Twitch.tv now has built into their XSplit plugin.

a) Are you using DXtory? If so, does it crash when not used? If not, you're kind of in the wrong thread
b) Have you already tried re-installing Flash and XSplit?
c) Can you stream to another provider, ie. Own3d?

Livestream.com only allows for 500 kbps unless you plan on buying their premium service:

Please try and make a new presentation in the "File menu". 9/10 times this helps. The reason is that something is "stuck" and still using the old capture driver. I had this problem initially when I tried DXTory the first time too.

hey. i was wrong. it did help.
a little stutter is normal, its even when xsplit is closed.
i forgot that, and tought i had absolutley NO stutter usually. wrong.

i compared the stuttering dxtory+xsplit / xsplit only, and with the screensource dxtory its MUCH smoother.
thank you very much.

I've been trying to use Dxtory with XSplit for some quality testing purposes, but I am finding that I can never actually "start recording". My default hotkey is F12, and even when I try to switch the hotkey It still won't work. I can take screenshots, but I can not "start recording".

Does anyone have this issue / a fix?
Kindly appreciated

Everything works well except for one thing. Without Dxtory open and not recording/streaming I get an easy 70 FPS while playing WoW, but when I start recording/streaming it drops down about 50% so I get about 35 FPS, then when I open xsplit it drops down to 25 FPS and when I start streaming, I get 15 FPS. How do I solve this?

Did you try this:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=12501769

You say that it drops 50% when you start the DXTory "record/stream" (before XSplit is started). DXTory does not stream anything, so I assuming you're solely talking about recording. You may want to avoid that - the drop could be related to your hardware not being up to the job. The rest of the drops are almost certainly related to my link though some amount of FPS drop is mandatory.

Unfortunately your hardware is severely limiting your options. Depending on the specific model of your CPU, I would suggest a 480p stream - maybe 560p.
My suggestion for settings:
Stream: 480p @ 20 or 25 FPS
Location (assuming Twitch.tv): Use a server near you
Preset: Default
Quality: 6
Max bitrate/buffer: 600/600 (<-- adjust this as high you can while avoiding lag - keep under 800)
Audio: 44.1KHz, 16 bit stereo, 64.000 bit/s

Monitor your CPU usage while streaming - if it is ever maxed and it lags, you need to lower stream resolution.

Hey, I'm using DXTory with my friend and he keeps getting black bars on the left and right of his video.
Any way to fix that? They show on his XSplit too.

Make sure he is streaming in the same aspect ratio as his desktop/game is. If you play in 16 : 9, use a 16 : 9 stream resolution too.
One sec, I'll find a thread describing this in detail.

Having a problem. I have everything set like the video. When I load up a game and press f12 it starts recording. When I go to xsplit it isn't showing anything. When I go to my stream in j.TV its showing q blank page. Also it doesn't go live. It shows the video once I've stopped. Any help?
