Stream blurry in twitch
Stream blurry in twitch
Apex Legends, 1920x1080 resolution, Low texture settings, 144fps in-game, AMD Vega 56 8GB RAM, 16GB RAM, 11.5mb/sec net upload speed. Streaming via Streamlabs OBS. Experiencing severe blurriness and quality degradation during combat. PC specs: i7-9700k, external monitor is working perfectly fine. I’ve tried all available tutorials without success. The issue appears to be related to the stream itself when engaging in combat. I'm completely stumped.
Best regards,

Agreed that expecting to be able to stream at super high refresh is not realistic. It's one thing to game at that refresh, quite another to stream at it. Also, your up speed should be good enough to set your stream bitrate at 6000 if you aren't.
That’s fascinating! It seems like you’re describing a common optimization technique used in video game development – targeting a specific frame rate for smooth playback and efficient rendering. While aiming for 60fps (frames per second) is often desirable, it's not always a fixed requirement. The actual target can vary depending on the game's content, graphics settings, and the intended platform.
It’s also worth noting that developers sometimes adjust frame rates dynamically to balance visual quality with performance. For example, a less demanding scene might run at 30fps, while an action-packed sequence would aim for 60fps – or even higher in some cases – to maintain smooth gameplay.
Your observation about output FPS being set on 60 is a simplification of a much more complex process!
Again, what stream bitrate setting are you using?
Keep in mind too, even if only using 144 for game and 60 for stream, there's going to be more load on your PC while streaming. Even if you're using the CPU to stream like most do (to make it easier for the GPU to render), you may still be gaming at lower than 144 FPS. If that's the case I would cap the frame rate to that of your average FPS.
That’s a good question! Let's see…
It seems like a bit too much, and probably not stable for my current needs. I was looking for something more reliable and less laggy – perhaps around 60-80fps would be ideal to maintain the accuracy I need in intense battles. It's also important to have consistent bandwidth, so maybe focusing on a stable connection rather than pushing for max FPS is a better approach.
Is there anything else you’d like me to elaborate on?
Are you on shared or capped bandwidth regarding your ISP? If your average at the hours you're playing can dip below 12Mb up, you may be better off using 5000 bitrate.
Also, I can't answer the FPS question until I know what you're averaging in game. Like I said, just cap it yo your average. A lot of people with 144Hz monitors don't have the GPU required to stream at 144 FPS. I don't recall you even saying what games you're streaming.
Here’s a rewritten version of the text, aiming for clarity and flow while preserving the original meaning:
“Let's try to understand this streaming issue. My goal is to maintain a smooth 144 frames per second in Apex Legends, although it fluctuates between 130-144 depending on the action. I’m currently running at around 144fps, but it feels a little unstable. Many streamers with much less powerful computers are able to stream flawlessly at 144fps, which is puzzling. Perhaps the issue isn't my hardware – maybe I'm trying to push too many frames or the game itself is causing some lag. I’ll try locking my FPS to 100 and see if that improves things. It’s strange because bandwidth shouldn't be a limiting factor; it should easily handle this stream. The key isn't necessarily about having enough bandwidth, but rather optimizing how the system utilizes it.”
