Awesome man! I managed to stream sc2 1080p with a decent fps on my i5 and 10mbit internet. When I tried with Xsplit I always had problems but OBS worked as a charm!

And it's free! This is so awesome and thank you so much for putting time into this project Jim

Got mine to work :D I am able to stream @ 720p with 25 fps and still maintain ~90 in game fps. The only thing that is holding me back is unfortunately by HORRIBLE 1mb upload speed :|
I live in an area where one street to the left, I can get 5-10 mb upload for the same price, or one street to the right I can get 10-15mb upload for slightly more expensive. But of course here on my street, I'm stuck with what I got without DOUBLING my payments for 5 mb upload

First time using this with Windows 8, I seem to notice significant slowdown throughout my system, not just in Dota 2. Everything runs fine when I start it, just when I hit the 'start stream' or 'start preview' does the slowdown happen.

Any ideas?

Is this compared to normal or xsplit / ffsplit?

This is compared to OBS before I installed Windows 8, when I was on Windows 7. I tried XSplit with similar results.

edit: Just to throw in a bit more; the slow down in noticeable without anything else running, just opening/closing windows and even going through the new start menu.

You can try 360p and some 480p and then only games that dont really stress your system to begin with.

Set expectations low.

I have worse upload than that and I can set my bitrate at 800kbps. You can see the results in my signature's videos. Isn't the best but no one has complained about the lack of 720p yet.

Granted my download is much better than yours (3x better actually) but I don't know how much impact download has on streaming.

Any tips for making my stream look better?

http://www.twitch.tv/rexxyc/b/337253313
This is OBS doing 720p/60fps. Runs very smooth but it has that dark, blurry look compared to when I used FFSplit which was 1080/30fps: http://www.twitch.tv/rexxyc/b/324732727

I'm at work right now so I can't post my stream settings but I think it's a Very Fast and quality of 8. I'm running a 3770k/HD7850. My upload is around 3.5 Mb/s.

I dont see anything outside of the obvious fact that 720p is a lower resolution than 1080p

If you are talking about the blur that happens when you move screens that might be upload related but its honestly not very prominent.

Barely. Stream is going to suffer when you move the camera a lot. Better keep it to 360p or 480p.

Windows 8 does not play well with streaming software. FFsplit would not encode above 25 FPS in Windows 8 and I could not get OBS to even detect an image in Windows 8.

Similar problems arise when you use Aero in Windows 7, so I assume the problem is linked to whatever new version of Aero or whatever they're calling it is causing the problems.
Might makes right.

Yes, it wouldn't surprise me if this was the problem. I just don't know how to disable the new equivalent of Aero or whatever. :D
