Hi. I used search. Maybe I failed, but I didn't find anything.
First off, I want to say I've watched the last 3 TSL. I loved it. I loved the casting, I loved the community coming together, I loved the rush and excitement of a new sport emerging from the scene. It's fantastic, and I was looking forward to TSL4 the second TSL 3 was over ( I even advocated for TSL to be quarterly).
Since TSL 4 has begun, I haven't been able to watch one match yet. Not even ONE match. Why do you ask? The stream lags, every 2 seconds, and it's the pause for 5 seconds lag. The lag that makes you want to punch your computer because you blame it on that. The lag that makes you rage quit games. I hate it. I hate it. And I thought it was all me. Until I asked in chat. And again. And again. Aaaand again. People were experiencing this with me.
Now I know many of you aren't experiencing it obviously - but there are a few out there, enough for me to say hey, anyone experiencing lag every time I turn the stream on and a couple people immediately respond, yes not watchable.
I've tried every browser available, I've tried turning off everything on my network. I've used the shittiest resolution. Reset my router. Etc. I've NEVER had a problem streaming ANY other tournament. EVER. GSL/NASL/GSTL/IGN/ even the takeTV 30k+ views, not a problem. On the highest qualities.
So - what gives? Am I broken? Are all those other people broken? How many people are experiencing this? What's the deal man?! I love TSL and I wanna watch damn it!! 
QQ off, but it was a serious QQ.

I gad a little lag but goign into popout viewer thingy fixed it for me. I can watch at 720P+ no lag at all. (i#m in denmark btw.)
Mabye try disabling chat? (watch in popout view and don't have old window open.)

Noticed the same thing and I'm glad I'm not the only one experiencing. For sure a turnoff for me. Hope it gets fixed.
Edit: Personally haven't seen as much lag today, I know for sure it has happened before though.

Lags badly at 720+
720 is just occasional lag.
|
i wasnt able to watch EU/NA qualifiers the past two days due to immense lag. the KR qualifier today works good on 720p. but the 720+ lags as hell though. could be some twitch tv issues again.
|
It's like I ask and shall receive. I've been able to watch shortly after I posted. It's nice. It's really nice. 720p, I can hear the casters, I can see what is happening. I am happy.
Please, please internet gods, do not play a nasty trick on me and take this away tomorrow. Please.
|
Been playing on 480 for the last couple of days to avoid the issue, and everything works pretty much fine there 
|
Instructing.
I lag too and was using 720p+. I always though "whatever+" was supposed to be the source stream and therefore the less prone to lags. I'll try regular 720p or 480p next time.
|
lag quite bad 720+
lag every 2 minutes or so at 720
??
|
Also lagging on my side. Weird I always thought it was a regional problem of Germany, but it seems not.
|
its the video that lags encoding-vise.
i test recorded some twitch streams (rtmdpump) its a twitch problem
the lags are actually in the video files, nothing you can do about on your end-side
|
I got freeze-frame like every big engagement and every now and then otherwise.. sound continues but frame is frozen for like 5-10sec. I never have any streaming problems otherwise, TSL stream is worst so far in this regard :<

This might be just wishful thinking, but without the chat it seems to be running more smoothly.

Noticed every time they stream, i have a very good computer and 100mb down, it's not me, it doesn't seem to be twitch, please fix, i generally turn it off whenever i see it's lagging, and i'm definitely not the only person who does as such. This is only hurting TL and TL's sponsors.

doesn't lag at all, get a new computer with better processor, ram, gfx card
User was warned for this post (bad advice)

I guarantee i have a better computer in all respects than you and i lag every single time on the teamliquid stream, and never ever ever lag on ANY other stream, even at 1080p, 60fps, anything, please don't make random claims which don't make any sense and clearly show you have know idea what you're talking about. I can also guarantee that i have a better internet connection than you.

Yeah it does lag for me too sometimes and other times it's perfectly fine.
|
Since it is a twitch stream, it lags for me on high resolutions; sad, but I got used to it
