Hello, as you guys may or may not know I do a lot of streaming.
With the recent release of obs, I instantly fell in love. My FPS doesn't drop much, the UI is so user-friendly, and making adjustments on the fly is super easy.
However, this past week of streaming has been terrible. When streaming with obs, I've been constantly losing connection to the twitch.tv servers, my stream has been running at less than 30fps (usually around 5-15, making it not much better than a slideshow).
Thinking it might just be my internet, I coped with it for awhile. However, yesterday I decided to try out xsplit again, just to see, and it worked perfectly fine.
Now, the easy solution would be to just use xsplit full-time, but sadly my PC isn't good enough for that, and I can't afford the fps drop while I'm scrimming/playing in matches.
Here's what the vod looked like when I switched back to xsplit:

And here's just one of the many 30 second to 2 minute vods obs makes, showing the choppiness:

My bitrate is identical in both, and changing the server I was streaming to didn't seem to do anything.
