Obs Studio My Upload Is Zero but Stream Still Going

• #one

Howdy, and then I've been having a lot of problems streaming over the last few months, every time I stream around the one hour mark I begin to drop thousands upon thousands of frames, I have tried everything from a wired connection, to changing servers, to allowing OBS through the firewall. The one thing I have not done yet is check my router and/or modem for issues even so I desire to make 100% sure that its a modem/router effect before I go spending money on a new one. I don't know what to exercise at this point to set up information technology considering I've been having these problems no thing what fourth dimension of day I stream at, no matter what server I'm on, I've tried everything. All the needed information volition be in the screenshots below.

Stream Settings:

Here are my twitch test results

Hither is an internet speed test when the problems occur

Here are my twitch inspector reports when I tested the stream

Here are my reckoner specs

And finally hither is the log file

I'm at a loss on what to exercise, similar I've said I tried about everything, I just want to make sure I'thousand non messing upwardly any settings before I purchase a new router/modem and have the same thing happen again. Thanks for all the assistance in accelerate!

No output session in log.

Would wait poor streaming operation given your twitchtest and speedtest results.

If this regularly occurs at near the aforementioned interval after starting streaming that would seem to point traffic shaping by ISP.

Would this log file work? 2019-08-31_20-01-32.txt and I've noticed that my upload speeds are actually inconsistent and my twitch server connections are too inconsistent, they are 10000+ most of the fourth dimension but when I'm having problems they are all zippo, when I performed and upload speed test, when I've been dropping frames my upload speed falls beneath 1, and my Internet access provider has said everything is fine on their end. I have even replaced my modem and my router and I'm However having issues.

You need to open OBS, first a stream or recording session, observe your issue, end the session, and so upload the log.

If you see such results in TwitchTest then the trouble is definitely network. Can't tell much more than without a logfile with an output session.

Thought I stock-still the issue but apparently I didn't so heres a log file of my session, this 1 should piece of work https://obsproject.com/logs/Zw_pUUwhVhJzfCnz

Definitely a network issue. Address to Isp if you've already eliminated NIC, local cabling and router as potential problems.

I even connected my computer to my modem when streaming and I still had issues, when addressing my ISP, how should I phrase it to best describe the outcome? Packet loss? Unstable connection? When I talked to them previously and I said I had an unstable connection they had no clue what I was talking most?

Packet loss/low bandwidth to item destination (twitch ingest server). Ask if they are traffic shaping approachable video streams.

Alright ill do this, give thanks y'all for the help, ill post here if something else on the matter pops upwardly

Packet loss/low bandwidth to item destination (twitch ingest server). Ask if they are traffic shaping outgoing video streams.

So I did this and there is apparently zero packet loss on their stop, i am at a loss every bit to what the problem is at this indicate, ive even tried upgrading my internet to allow more bandwidth and im STILL having issues. I did however practise a Twitch server exam when the frames are dropping and all the servers came back as 0, why is that the case when they are at 10000+ when I start streaming? As the stream goes on my connection to the servers is nonexistent.

They are almost certainly testing package loss only on your final mile (between their function and you) and are unconcerned about upstream problems. Or they are blocking/shaping upstream traffic to stream servers and not disclosing this fact. Neither would be surprising.

Would a VPN solve this issue?

Edit: VPN did not work, I'll phone call my Internet service provider again I guess

If your WAN IP is pingable, I suggest showing Smokeping graphs to your Internet service provider.

http://www.dslreports.com/smokeping

I plugged my computer directly into the modem bypassing the router and I nonetheless had issues, would that nonetheless be an issue with smokeping? Considering I feel my issue may be my connection to the Twitch servers, but I accept no thought how I would go about fixing that, I know its an ISP matter but when I tried talking to them they said everything was fine on their end

Edit: Just checked to encounter if my WAN IP is pingable, information technology is not
