What upload settings do you use to stream (Twitch, Hitbox?)

I am just curious what upload speeds you set that works well and looks good.

It needs to be tailored to your network.

Thanks, now what are the numbers you use?

I want to know what others use to see where I stand.

I wouldnt go higher than a 3 mbps profile (assuming you have the 60/4 plan).

Just found out that Twitch eliminated the Chicago ingest server. :P

Once I was able to successfully use 2700 on video and 128 on audio... but I usually run into issues unless I sit around 2000-2200. Bleh.

I want upload to be at least double so I can stream comfortabely at 3000 for a few hourse. That's not unreasonable is it? I realize I should be able to do this in theory already.

I haven't streamed in a while. But I used to use 2500kbps.

Was it consistent?

It can be a matter of trial and error. What works for one person, may not work for another, for several possible reasons. Even if everyone provides you settings which work for them, you will still need to test and see if they work for you. At which point it's easier for you to simply test for yourself.

Yes, and I have, many times. What numbers do you use for your personal network after successful tests (that you do not need to remind me will probably not work on mine.)

So what exactly isn't working?

Testing should show if your settings are working or not. And whatever isn't working or working properly should indicate what you need to change.

Simply using another config isn't the best path to take. You would still need to test and tweak the config for your use. It can be affected by the PC, the LAN, or the WAN.
