    Thank you for this. Really helpful. I would like to get into streaming VR content. I am expecting to be a bit more demanding. I generally play wireless so there is a lot of streaming going from the PC to the VR headset and viceversa...if I then have to stream on the internet it gets even more demandng. It would be useful if you could suggest some optimal settings. I got a high end system with a 4090 and I use a Quest 3, wirelessly(Wifi6 router connected to my pc via ethernet cable). My internet is quite fast as well (70-80 Mbps upload). Any suggestion?

Probably need a 2 PC Setup for that. But for Streaming in 1080 to KICK , my Base should be 1440p right? and the Output should be 1080 cause thats for KICK Correct?

      You can find better help if you ask this in OBS forums. Hope this helps, I don’t think you should be overloading with your equipment. Also your base is what you stream on. And you downscale to 1080 that’s your output.

      great question! Personally, if you have a pc that can handle it, I would do AV1 encoding and set the recording to "use stream encoder" with the same bitrate as your stream (about 8-12 mbps for 2k and av1) and that would probably be the most efficient way to do it

    Another Rule of thumb for 1080p 60fps is for every Mbps Upload speed your max goes up 1,000 kbs bitrate. So for 10 Mbps your max is 10,000 and you should aim for 8k or 9k and limit your network usage.

    • @Chiselchip
      @Chiselchip  Рік тому

      I find that if you have higher end hardware that using multi pass just adds unnecessary computing power and for me it was just better in temperatures of the gpu if I put it to single pass. On a lower end pc it might look better for do 2 passes

  • @GoldSrc_
    @GoldSrc_ Місяць тому

    You shouldn't use the main profile, it should always be the high one.
    The main profile is for very old devices, just about any device that can be used to watch streams is able to handle the high profile.
    Also, do not use full color range, most devices expect a limited range video signal. Messing with that setting can make your stream look washed out or with the contrast way too high.
