Stream lags: what should I do?
Hello, friends! Today we decided to deal once and for all with lags in streams, because we know firsthand how uncomfortable a streamer feels when they write comments about lags, friezes, and drops. It is difficult for him to understand who has this problem! From him or the user? Who is to blame? Provider or computer characteristics?
In any case, the information in this article will be useful to everyone. You will be able to accurately determine the cause of the failure in the future and quickly fix it.
Reasons why the stream is buggy
1. Drops. To determine at which stage the frame loss occurs, go to OBS, View menu, Additional panel and find the statistics Window. During the broadcast, looking at this window, you can accurately determine at what point you have drops.
To avoid this, you need to choose the best server for yourself. Go to Twitch and search for a technical page that contains the three best servers recommended by the system for you. By selecting the first one in the list, you can safely stream!
If the problem persists, try the second and third options. If there are problems with the channel width, check them using special programs that can be found in Google. In General, look for the best channel for your Internet.
Drops also occur during rendering lag and encoding delays. An unpleasant situation and its solution is strictly up to you. The problem is the hardware that needs to be improved. It may be low CPU power or a weak video card. In the second case, you can use codecs.
2. Unstable Internet or network equipment. The Internet speed must be more than 5 megabits for the stream to pass without interference and failures. If this indicator is lower, the ether will fly off. Before playing, carefully check the performance of all communication channels with the network. It is important that nothing goes away. Otherwise, bugs.
3. Viruses. Some viruses are aimed at disrupting the operation of Twitch, so check your PC for their presence.
4. Twitch has been terminated. There may be crashes on the site's servers. As a rule, the development team and technical support eliminate them as quickly as possible. However, if you encounter such a problem, try clearing the cache and restarting your PC. In 95% of cases, this helps. If the error persists, wait a few minutes. Most likely, they are already working on fixing the error.
