Finding the Best OBS Bitrate and Server to Use for Twitch Streaming

Streaming on Twitch requires a lot of initial setup time to make sure everything is running smoothly. There are graphics, alerts, overlays, audio, video, and OBS settings that all need to be set up and working properly before you go live. But once we have everything else set up, how do we know what bitrate to start streaming with and which Twitch server should we be streaming to? In this video, I'll be showing you how to find the best OBS bitrate and server to use for Twitch streaming and which tools you'll need in order to figure it all out.

Thank you for this video, older but still useful for me. Been using the Auto server selection for the longest time. I have been having issues as of late so been looking for a good way to figure this all out.

Streamlabs OBS seems to have updated and looks nothing like this anymore. I can't find where to change server for the life of me. Any help?

[xCROUW]

hello and thank you for the amazing video! I was just wondering, How can i get rid of stream delay?

[henryfn]

i have a question, why when i do the test in the app i see the best server worth the best ping and the best bandwith and the best quality, but there is a page from twitch that analyzes where you are and it tells you the best server for you, and the best results that i get in 1 server is not the same server that twitch recommends me, and i tested the server that twitch recommends me and it gives me worst results. should i care about what server twitch recommends me? or i should just use the one that gives me the best results.

Edit: of course I liked my own comment, don't judge me

[Zeenix]

[kingclassic]

I have a question, does that mean that id i get 10000+ on europe, but for asia servers i have 3000 or 2500, does that mean that people from.asia wouldnt be abel to watch the stream in a good quality?

[MattShadows-gvon]

Hey, I'm from brazil and I am having some issues with OBS out of nowhere. My streams were good but then OBS started to drop my KBps stream, I've tried everything until I find you. I did what you say but in the TWITCH TEST in the quality session always shows "0" even the ones with the lowest ms, you can help me?

[StevoStaple]

umm mine says 9400 and 54 ping on sydney 2 and 56 on 3 so choose either? I also wanna do 5500 bitrate 864p will this be okay? my max upload is 20 so maybe 720p is better

[ttv-a_rogue_hawk]

so Im running into an Issue for my area ( portland OR Server) its saying that my Ping is 24 which is great but its saying my quality is 0 any advice on how to fix this issue its causing my streams to drop and my big Problem is before this recent OBS Update I was streaming on Portland OR (1) and my streams were clear and smooth but since this up date that server is no longer there

[siclay]

help me decide which server should i choose and recommended bitrate,
a server with 21ms but 21 quality vs 125ms but 68 quality vs 45ms but 44 quality
my network only have 3, 85 mbps upload speed

[Simpinski]

I am having an issue here in the UAE. The fastest servers to me are in Europe, but the problem is that the fastest upload I get is 3900kbps. My upload speed is 100mbps. Sad :(
