If so, You have come to the correct place!



Requirements:



Internet with around 0.5mb upload, and a medium spec PC.



My PC is:



My PC Specification:

Processor: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.3GHz Socket 1155 Processor

CPU Cooler: Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro rev 2

Memory/RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600Mhz

Graphics Card: Asus GTX 560Ti DirectCU II 1GB GDDR5 Dual DVI Mini HDMI PCI-E

Motherboard: Asus P8Z68-V LX Socket 1155 Onboard graphics output 8 Channel Audio ATX Motherboard

Hard Drivers: 1TB + 250GB

PowerSupply: OCZ 600W



Anything around that specifications will be fine!



Download Xsplit here:





Set up xsplit with the follow settings to your account,









Use 1280x720 resolution and 20 FPS - Set the FPS higher if you want, this is just what works for me.



Heres a example of the quality you will recieve!

I haven't paid for xsplit yet, only codec you can use when you haven't paid for it now I haven't paid for xsplit yet, only codec you can use when you haven't paid for it now

I myself used to have a .45 upload speed, i'd stream with 350 bitrate at my resolution scaled down 1/2 (so 800x450 for my 1600x900 resolution game, less pixelation) and it would look pretty good with an fps of 30.



I've recently upgraded to a .8 upload and stream at 600 bitrate and things look fairly good.

Sadly because its laptop, its still not smooth unlike urs

I'll have to reduce some bitrates to create like urs.

Thanks for the thread though! hmm my cpu is 2410m, and i already tried those specs..Sadly because its laptop, its still not smooth unlike ursI'll have to reduce some bitrates to create like urs.Thanks for the thread though!

to be on topic, i had a question, does the FPS change affect the bandwidth or CPU?

Prof.Oak Profile Joined November 2010 Canada 24 Posts Last Edited: 2012-03-18 00:14:17 #12 How do you set FPS and resolution?

Edit: Also as someone with a pretty powerful computer, but limited upload speed, what can I change if anything?

Edit2: Nvm I din't realize you meant resolution and frame rate of the xsplit window

And considering your upload speed & CPU, you should be using a slower preset - as slow as possible - as well as overclocking the CPU if haven't already. The answers to most of your Tech Support questions are in the OP. That's why you're not getting a reply. It's been answered before. Read the OP.
