Head to settings, then audio and turn on Audio Preview. This will feed you all the sound going out to your broadcast, which will make monitoring and adjusting all the easier! Too Much on Screen We love a good overlay but sometimes people can fill up the screen with far too many gifs, words, images and all sorts! Keep it simple, what do people need to know?
What is aesthetically pleasing while at the same time communicating something to the viewer? Do you have any other common mistakes you see streamers making? These tend to be pricey and could add more bulk to your setup. I only recommend using these if you absolutely need to get rid of every bit of buzz in your audio. For recent windows updates, especially one of the major fall updates, be sure to check your default audio devices. Windows has a nasty habit of changing your default audio devices after an update.
The audio preview is the final mix that your viewers will hear and is great for fine-tuning audio levels. Modern-day game streaming is all about keeping a minimum of 60fps for both the streamer and the viewer. Many games will try to use the maximum amount of GPU resources possible, and it can leave your streaming software without anything to work with.
The best way to manage this is to limit the frame rate of your games. So if you are on a 60hz display, set the frame rate limit in-game to 60fps. If you are on a high refresh rate monitor, try to limit the frame rate to a multiple of 60 like or or even hz. If you are using an encoding preset like slow, try increasing it to medium or fast. If you know that your internet connection is unstable, then enable adaptive bitrate.
Adaptive bitrate will increase or decrease the bitrate depending on the available bandwidth. If you notice the bitrate tends to stay consistently lower than your target, consider lower your resolution so that visual quality can be maintained.
Having issues with your webcam looking too grainy or having a low frame rate? Check your area if you have proper lighting, fixing the lighting can easily solve this issue. Also, be sure to connect your stream machine via a wired connection if you can as it can make a huge difference in improving your live stream quality! The general rule is to set your bitrate as high as your internet connection and the streaming platform allows.
If on a limited connection, try lowering your resolution and frame to accommodate for the lower bitrate. Lag is an interesting term, especially when it comes to streaming, but generally, there are two types of lag that can happen with encoding. At your end as the streamer, you can see this problem as well as dropped frames.
This usually happens for two reasons. As mentioned before, do a speed check before setting your bitrate. The best solution is to lower the bandwidth of your stream. If this continues to be a problem, try getting in contact with your ISP. Main sites like Twitch have dedicated streaming servers for different regions, but sometimes these have issues. The best solution is to go offline and change servers.
If this is a recurring problem, do a bandwidth check to determine if the server you plan to stream to is stable before going live. For Twitch, for example, a good way to determine this is to check here which will list the servers closest to you in order. The next type of lag can sometimes be seen by the viewers but is usually felt or seen by the streamer if they are playing games.
