Possible to tweak Enhanced Broadcasting?

As title really. I switched to Enhanced Broadcasting, and I like having the extra resolutions available which in theory should be higher quality than transcoding. Only problem is that in fast paced games like FFXIV the main 1080p60 encode looks like garbage compared to how it did when I was manually setting the encoding parameters, blocky and with blurry text where previously it was fine.

I'm running an RTX4080 and have plenty of upload bandwidth (100Mb/sec). Twitch inspector shows no issues, so it can only be down to encoding parameters.

Log file attached (stream starts at 17:00)

While Enhanced broadcasting includes support for multiple client-side encodes (similar to transcodes) and automatic stream configuration, the OBS implantation of if uses auto config but you can adjust Max Bandwidth and Tracks. Your current log shows 10,360 total for bitrate so try setting the max to 20,720 and max tracks to 5 and see if any thing changes. It’s important to note that these are upper limits, not a target or preference.

I'll give that a go, but we're still limited to 6000kbps on the main stream, right? So really it's the encoder settings I need to fiddle with, I had 1080p60 looking quite nice before I switched to enhanced broadcast
