Streaming

Hi! What's the best settings for quality streamig on QoS? Is there anything I can do to make uploading stream stable? Could Traffic Prioritazition make a big difference for the Streaming software (OBS Studio) I'm using? Regards.
  • You would need to have a look at what ports that software specifically uses. Keep in mind that it could potentially have an adverse affect and cause the game to lag, you will need to experiment with it. You can keep that enabled so that your game is prioritized as well.

  • Hey! 

     

    Yes, you can also prioritise streaming traffic in bandwidth allocation. Alternatively, you could add a rule in Traffic prioritisation as you said, this would mean streaming traffic is prioritised over everything else in the network.

      All right, but how do I do that just for streaming? I don't see any option for streaming, only for games. What ports need I to have for the streaming? Do I also need to shut down DumaOS Classified Games? Regards
