Hi guys

I need some help - the quality that this program puts out is great but it causes a huge spike in latency, and I don't know why. My computer can handle streaming, and I have had no problems streaming with xsplit. My settings are:

Video Source: CHScrCap
Video Bit Rate: 2500
Encode Preset: Fast
Video Resolution: 1280x1024
Frame Rate: 30
Audio Bit Rate: 256 Mono

Here is the vod of my latency, it's very hard to play with (Skip to 2 minutes)

If anyone can help me that would be great :D


What is your Upload speed?

You should be able to stream without a problem.

I think he meant to say FFsplit overlay, in your FFsplit settings, you should choose that overlay, as FFsplit is not 100% compatible with other video sources. If you are lagging, what did you set your bitrate to? Remember, it should be around 70-75% of your upload speed. I think with that upload speed, you should have no problem going with 1500
You are no longer automatically breathing and blinking.

If you set your bitrate higher than what is needed, it will improve the quality only to up to a point (depending on the res you're streaming in). With 1280x1024, you only need between 1500-2000. Try that out and see what you get.

k, im using this ffsplit and got it setup. However, there are no scene switchers? (for out-of-game and in-game overlays)
Also is there no way to adjust the added images size without manually changing each image in PS?

Because im noob can you explain why ffsplit is better than xsplit other than the better audio quality we get?

its still beta and full release isn't even close. They are working out kinks in the program before they add scene switches etc. FF split will take less resources from what i encountered.

FFsplit in its current stage is for basic streaming. Maybe in the later beta stages you will be able to use FFsplit with all the extra stuff that xsplit allows but until then, people who like the extras should stick with xsplit.

The better quality i can get with FFsplit is unreal, i'm streaming HD using 600bitrate, so much more crisp than xsplit, however i notice that my stream just dies and i can't figure out why. It also takes awhile to load onto twitch.tv

current setting with 1upload speed and i5 2400 with ati hd 5850 and 8gb ram

bit rate: 600
encode preset: fast
video resolution: 720p
Frame Rate: 29.97
Audio bit rate: 96
Audio Channels: Stereo

If i notice some ingame lag, what settings do you suggest i tweak.

It dies if your bitrate isn't stable. Have the debug console open when you're testing your stream, and it usually dies when u see the the bitrate go constant. Thoguh, the only times that it has happened to me are in cases where my internet is lagging or something. By ingame lag, do you mean input lag or fps lag?
also, can you post a link to your stream?

stream link is http://www.twitch.tv/NMxStyX
check my vods, i've tried many times and it justs cuts off, however the quality is so sexy

i've been testinig and i think my bitrate isn't stable... 600bitrate with 96 onaudio = 700
and at 30fps and 720p i don't think its handling it well,.
ingame lag i mean input lag, game delay. I click on something and it takes longer to process,
myingame fps is prettystable at 60fps but i do feel some ingame lag here n there but the main problem is my stream that dies.
Using faster preset now as sc2 + ffsplit makes my cpu go up to 80%

So when you start streaming, what's your upload at in the debug console? Is it a stable ~650-700?

Can you screenshot your debug console when your stream crashes?

Well, I've had this problem a couple of times, but usually it's really random. Like, some days it'll happen, but then other days it'll be completely fine. I don't really have a sound solution to this other than just messing with your bitrate and testing it over and over (worked for me eventually).

ahh that sucks.. not surprised since i doubt its anywhere close to being in its final stage.
Thanks for trying anyway.
Whats intial settings did you use and what did you end up using after testing?

should i reduce from 30fps to 25fps and go below 720p?
