Obs Stream Fine for a Few Minutes Then Upload Jumps Around
- #2
Start by following pinned mail in this forum for asking for help
Please mail a log with your issue! Hither'southward how...
OBS Studio creates a log file each time you run it which contains very useful diagnostic data. Without a log file, it'due south much harder for any support volunteers to effigy out problems and your mail service may be ignored. To upload a log file, go to the Assistance menu > Log Files > Upload Last Log...

if you tin stream fine from other devices on same LAN to same target (twitch?) fine, and you know the other devices are Not using any bandwidth while you are trying to stream from your PC, then either it is the PC or your OBS settings, right? Then again, nearly people have no idea what else is going on in their LAN, and aren't continuously monitoring WAN traffic... so yous probably don't know if something else locally interfering, or do y'all?

Your log has a bunch of
15:27:08.556: Output 'adv_stream': Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 634 (48.6%)
at various rates
all indicating your network isn't allowing that bitrate

maybe... lamentable, there isn't enough info for me to be definitive
It could be your PC, ie either OS or other software/settings on information technology, a Windows Update/driver issue (other threads on this... non sure how existent it is), your local LAN, or your ISP. It is highly unlikely to be anything having to exercise with OBS itself
most probable either
- your upload bandwidth isn't what you think it is,
- something on your LAN is consuming that bandwidth,
- or your ISP has a 'trouble'
so adjacent steps are the basic
- endeavor lowering bitrate to place if there is whatsoever rate that is stable (ie 1000 kpbs vs 6000)... don't stop in that location, just an important baseline to institute
Do you have an alternating PC to test a simple stream with? can be static image then low CPU/CPU load, just similar bitrate?
nosotros merely trying to see if WAN link can support whatever stable stream (fifty-fifty at a low rate)
- remove EVERYTHING else from LAN (ie airplane mode, or no power, etc... non just not in current utilize) and try over again
do you lot know how to check/monitor your real-time WAN usage (at router/modem)?
- compare that to your PC to see if significant discrepancy (don't await to match... but if PC is near 0 and WAN outbound
usage is fluctuating with large numbers, then you have something to troubleshoot... could exist something you lot only didn't empathise/expect, or could be malware infected device, or a # of other things)
Accept you tried streaming (same PC) from a different Internet location with a known good upload available bandwidth?
- ready your Win10 settings (why is Game DVR on?), etc [cheque your OBS log]
- make sure not running unnecessary s/due west on Win10, particularly any software that tweaks your network performance (ie make sure something on your PC isn't the cause of the bottleneck)
- run network tests (pingplotter or other for finer grained exam of network latency to diverse destinations)
- attempt alternate streaming target (after you do above.. looks similar your log shows multiple stream targets attempted, right?)

Do yous have/have you tried uploading a large file(s) to something similar Google Drive/Dropbox/OneDrive/Amazon Bulldoze?
For example, after streaming, I restart OneDrive and allow it to upload/sync.
you can monitor a loftier level network usage on your PC (TaskMgr -> Perf tab-> Network)
for me, on our poor AT&T DSL line in an old neighborhood, I can watch network usage consistently (for 30min to 1 60 minutes) run in the 10->11+mb/due south range. I tin stream from OBS at 5000kbps 2nd with no issue
the above is 1 style to test overall network throughput.
*if* you can sustain a decent rate to one of the shared drive binder type locations, next would exist uploading a decently sized video to YouTube (as you mentioned them). IF that also works fine (ie your Network upload charge per unit is above 10mb/s), then for proof to ISP
- upload video to youtube and record/log performance
- and so effort to stream to YouTube at low rate and compare
realize, it could be (not likely, but recent examples I've helped with were) your local PC (some s/westward or setting)
So if file upload works fine and streaming doesn't
- could be something on your PC (and/or your something you are doing in OBS) - I'd start hither every bit I suspect information technology is more likely
- or some network filtering/traffic shaping/routing issue at Internet access provider
- or any number of other problems, but the higher up 2 are the most likely

Have you lot had someone who can stream fine from their house (ie estimator works fine) come over and try streaming from your place. If that fails, then yous know it is either local LAN or ISP
- #13
Actually, the fact that you can stream via OBS on an alternate Internet circuit (mobile or other location) fine, means information technology is very likely your dwelling house LAN or ISP. In that case
- remove ALL else from LAN (WiFi disabled, etc) and endeavor again
- OBS logs volition be inadequate for Internet service provider. You may need something similar a Wireshark capture (so change any passwords or reused stream keys subsequently sharing capture). Your ISP should share what sort of log they'd adopt
in re-reading higher up
- I didn't see you reply regarding trying a large file transfer (Non stream) over WAN. The effort is to determine if protocol/Quality-of-Service type (mis)configuration on ISP side... or link itself... the file transfer should assist bespeak which it is. ie if file upload works, and OBS stream doesn't, then it is likely an ISP config upshot
does your ISP take webmail, or similar (something you can try uploading a 1Gb zipper to? You are looking for a file transfer to accept 10,20,30 minutes and watch for relatively consistent traffic charge per unit

OBS wouldn't exist blocking ports/traffic. Your Os might, but if y'all can stream from same laptop elsewhere, so Os and OBS are near likely fine. [You could have set up something where you OS detects its at your business firm, and yous have a specific network/related config that causes trouble ... unlikely, merely not impossible]
Assuming your PC and OBS is fine, using a VPN would appear to be to work around their routing/QoS/protocol 'issue' [putting onus on y'all to fix their problem]
Have you tried streaming from a someone else's location who has same ISP? if that works, and they've already done a agglomeration of other hardware fixes on your connection... then test of large file transfer on alternate protocol to confirm line is ok
and if that works, and then I'd suspect a line provisioning error ... but information technology gets complicated, and so but a best guess

I ran into this result some possible jerks to ruin your 24-hour interval, you Ethernet cable can be the trouble if y'all pay for 500 down and above x upload it's always good to go a cat6 cablevision now as for other possibilities jerks who steal wifi and tank your bandwidth they suck northward aye they exist check your active connections and check all your ips on your continued devices and make certain you tin can encounter all of them are in your habitation if you constitute a jerk stealing your wifi block the connection via ip in your router setting check if any wireless devices need a update also windows updates themselves ruin your kbps simply them cached in your bone can ruin your kbps
