Recent Bitrate extreme fluctuation

[m.scott644]

Hey guys,

I run a live music stream with obs, it's a 2 camera set up at 1080p with a live audio mixer. Anyways, that's all besides the point. Recently I've been having extreme fluctuations in my bitrate, I run on hardwire ethernet directly into my mac (I have a 2018 macbook pro that I have an ethernet port extension cable for). My internet will be running fine, and then I get a drastic shift in bitrate (since I'm running on a dynamic bitrate so I don't lose the feed). It seems to be getting worse with every stream. I've tested every alternative, and the only thing I can find that seems to be the issue is obs and its encoding. Any thoughts? Attached is my stream, and log report and a screen shot of my settings.

Thanks,

Marcel

Hi TexasLiveSound,

I've heard 2 cams is usually the max you should use on obs. That might be your problem. Also what capture card are you using?
