It wasn't my imagination either. I've been in SM's good graces for months before I confronted them about giving me the run around on changing my payment type. Once I did, i experienced all the glitches mentioned in this thread that I never had before. I've been in this limbo since then, dropped over 4 spots in my category even though I stream regularly and have a high hourly.

is anyone else having problems with the broadcaster? mine keeps freezing up and i just bought my computer which is an i5 processor yesterday. i am trying to calibrate again and now it's taking forever. I deleted my cookies and restarted too. Anyone else?

Maybe SM dont like the nr of hrs i am able to cam, that's why they dont show me their love always.
Some people work these hrs in a week & i do them in a month?!
When i was up to 70-80 hrs per month i was doing a lot better but hey, i do what i can, i also have other things to do here than cam, i am not a super woman but just a simple woman with limited powers & health issues, i also help my family, this week i took a few days off cause i had to help my mom going to doc for blood tests and check ups & all, she is in very bad health.
My health & family comes first then the work, luckily i work for myself and have the freedom to take time off as i need it, if i was working for others at a vanilla job or even for a studio camming there then i would not be able to afford such luxury.
I know i never did & will never kiss asses to be in somebody's graces lol, i am too strong of a character & personality to ever consider doing this; i also believe good characters dont need their asses kissed, only lame people need that ish lol.
I want to believe SM are the guys that dont need their asses kissed ;)

Don't feel bad Kat... Those were my hours per month the last two years.... sometimes it dropped as low as 20... :/
You could earn back sm love. :D just like I did. I earned it last month and then I lost it. lol. Now i'm earning it again haha! Old habits die hard I guess!! :D

Ok I need help on what to do , to get my cam not laggy looking.. I have no other clue
My internet is great 330/18
my pc is great.. it's a gaming pc .. I am using 37-50% CPU
I bumped my bit rate on FMLE to 2500 to see if that helps.. I am doing the HD720 best settings.
What else? Do I need a webcam? would that effect it?
HELP!! TIA
Still need help if anyone has any idea? I just updated my camera and microphone driver, adobe flash player and shockwaver player and still lagging..
Maybe I will download the SM broadcast.. I dunno? It's been like this for like 3 days now.

Anon, your equipment sounds wonderful. If you're camming with a c920, that's the "standard" for cammodels. You know more than I do though on this of course. :) I just think that SM Broadcaster is buggy right now and causes some models to have a lag or audio/video sync issues. No software is perfect so I am sure they are working on it. If you are currently on FMLE then you should be all set with the settings they send you. Maybe Streamate's hosting really isn't equipped to handle all this HD at once? (I know they got Google servers, but it's still a ton of data).

is anyone having a null night on Sm ? I noticed they made changes again, and I've been online for more than an hour and have gotten NOTHING. nothin!! I also upped my rates and that's giving me paranoia. :/ should I jack them back down? :(

04-11-2016, 09:36 PM
Yes ^^^ me. I am sitting here making weird faces in the camera and nope, no one is home.... No don't lower rates. I did that... regretted it pretty quick. It brought demanding men.

I might be a conspiracy theorist but I think SM chooses which models will get paying traffic. There are some models in my category that have a ton of talkers and tippers while I have crickets. When I first started I was working 30 hrs a week and never complaining but as soon as SM dicked me around about my payment info and I had to get confrontational with Support I noticed I literally dropped 4 spots in my category and the paying customers by pass me like they don't even see me in the category when I'm online. I have 4 different people in my inbox asking me "where I've been" when I've been online every day this week.
Yep. I agree. I feel this way as well. Other girls in my category have 5-12 guys in their room while I have 0-1. My placement has also dropped a little.
And yes! Guys have been asking where I've been. I'm on every single day. At first, I thought the guys were fucking with me. But, so many have been saying it.
I've been convinced for about a year now that SM hates me.

It's not you. I have had slow nights the last 4 nights on SM. And there has been a LOT of site glitches too. I heard nothing but complaints tonight and there were a lot of ins and outs, barely any traffic, hardly any talking at all and then people from way earlier coming in again asking me if I had a good long pvt when I had been in free chat the whole time. Here is one of the many I got, took him forever as he had to keep reconnecting because the site was freezing and getting error messages

MistressX
04-11-2016, 10:07 PM
It's a combination of all of it I guess. I just wasnt feeling it yesterday. I tried to be super positive and upbeat today and it made a difference but the glitches screwed things up I think. I find that sometimes switching up your room and even your cam angle can help. I have experimented with different outfits and you know what? Guys prefer the one thing I wear and I wear it every day now like a uniform lol.. wearing other things has hurt my earnings so fuck it..

Before anyone chews my head off, let me say my 2 cents. My hubby is a computer programmer (C++. Java and Python). He's been doing programming for nearly 10 years now. He understands code. This man has been obsessed with code lately. I love hearing his theories and understanding a programmers brain. I do think that the site doesn't really "pick" on models, but they do favor some above others. This is obvious. I'm not one of their favorites. Nowhere near it.
But anyways, they control the website. They can manually do whatever they want with our accounts. While he doesn't code the website, he believes that the developers can place us wherever they want. It's too much effort to place us manually so the program does most of the hard work. I understand that adult websites are ran by men and men have stupid high standards for how models should look. It's inevitable. We can't control it. The best thing we can do is be ourselves and be confident.
There's models who log on once a month and land themselves up on top of page 1, while there's models like me who can't seem to climb anywhere near top of page 1. I don't think it's ever going to happen personally. I gained a bit of weight after my pregnancy and I'm not your typical "cammodel" like the men want me to be. I am however still awesome the way I am. }:D (Confidence plays a huge key factor in success no matter what body shape you are.)
My husband logged into his account and couldn't find me anywhere on his SM account. I even logged in, couldn't find myself. I don't have GEO block enabled so people in my state can find me. I have had regulars asking where the hell I've been. There was 5 to the top of my head this week that have all asked that. Even if it wasn't manually done, it certainly means there's bug in their code.

Its more like they created a script with the Dev who set it all up and he moved on only they realised he left no documents. If Streamate has been running years then they will be afraid to change anything in the back ground as they wont know what the impact will be. Hubbie works with companies like this its fine to add to but not change a core component in the database.
Rather than work on the encoder they should have worked on all the background processes and rolled a new core out as it would have been easier than going through what must be a labyrinth of tables and components. Its why large companies move to new systems after so long
MistressX
04-11-2016, 10:33 PM
Yeah thats true. My bf had a friend who wrote all the code for the computer systems at a hospital in NYC. He moved away across the country, and the hospital offered to fly him back there a couple times a month just so he could maintain the system because no one else knew what the hell they were doing. Finally after like 15 years the hospital moved on to a new system and he was fired!

Yep.. Basically they wrote their own code with their own functions and the developers don't want to tweak or modify much to the core. It could break a lot.
Selenasecret
04-11-2016, 10:52 PM
They need to create a new core and invest in developers not keep hiring new devs and hoping this one will solve the issues. However who ever wrote the pay the girls script knew what they were doing

Always my opinion was that placement is based on keywords and in our case the keywords are the specific tags that girls have.
I really wish to know how true ur statement could be bobo, why would the tags be the biggest factor to take into calculation regarding placement? Or even the keywords written into our profiles/ room intro/ room topic?
Tags are given by anyone or even ourselves (for the ones who have member accounts or exchange tags with other models).
Anyone can tag us no matter if they spend on us or not; i can see tags helping with search feature but placement?!
I think placement is based on popularity/ ranking which is again based on hrs online, income, percent in paid, conversions, time since camming on site, etc.
But then let me say even with good placement its possible not to have the best paying traffic and here the 'good/bad server theory' comes into discussion, i know i cammed with great placement and had little business some shifts and cammed with lower placement and was doing a lot better.
I 'landed' on a good server when signing in if i did good for the last shifts, if i worked enough hrs, if i worked consistently.
I did poor if i was working less hrs, chaotically regarding the times i got on cam etc.
I also believe they have favorite models who get more traffic than the others but this is kinda normal if u think some models really have what it takes to make the big money and i dont talk only about the looks but the talent to sell their shows (pvt/excl and gold shows).
My family/ personal things i had to take care of are all sorted now so i can start camming again, i really hope for the best & i know i'll do my best to get back on track with work. Good luck everyone xx

Maybe you need to lower you bitrate instead of increasing it? Possibly you may need to scale back on the number of sites you run at once? Have you tried just running Streamate solo and without splitcam software? I've noticed whenever the site does an update it may throw off my entire system. So i have rearrange the way I do things. Like start using two webcams with SM on the one and splitcam on the other webcam. I'm just throwing out some troubleshooting ideas. How long have you had your camera? Could be time to replace it. Reset your modem. How is your lighting? Maybe a camera placed in your background can help. And as for the SM Broadcaster people have said the same thing about the lagging pixelation. I think it works well for some and not others.

I've been watching my dad create code for hospitals since the 80s. Just him and a group of pervy old guys in charge of god knows how many thousands of patients information. If they could tweak the behavior of a huge database before the modern 20teens it's very possible manual placement on SM can be done. i notice the same "type" of girls get the same type of placement no matter the time of day. For instance,
If I go to my second first page row there is always a certain formula of models but different girls. For instance
Farthest right: MILF next: PETITE TEEN next: BUSTY ASIAN next: BBW
BUt any day of the week if I check certain to rows (I don't count the top sometimes bc it's the usual top models that just interchange with each other)
I noticed these trends and started feeling like SM plays with a routine menu way of offering models. If you "fit" you get placed there. Perhaps based on trends Sales and analytics
Unless it's a coincidence that the same type of models day or night work the same hours have the same hourly and in the same exact spot . There's literally for me anyways always a similar type of body type ethnicity age model in the same spot no matter the time of day.

The last three days I put in a lot of hours on SM. What I made in those three days is more than some make working every day all day on SM. I do this every week. Does my placement go up? Nope its going down. And I'm talking about girls that I know and talk to. I know two girls that only log in one weekend a month and each and every time they're placed very very high up on the site. They make a couple hundred and log off. Come back a month later. I too have noticed the grouping in the rankings on the site. Im not posting this because Im angry about it. I know how to make money and I don't rely on this site for that. I just wanted to share because it irks me when people can back up their theories with logic and reasoning only to be told that what they see isn't real. It's real and it's not gonna change I know this from an exchange I just recently had. However there are some things that may change but more people need to get involved. So again if you are on twitter follow @streamatepolls and answer the surveys. I like how Tatti_D is handling it. Its meant to be organized and drama free complaints that will be presented to SM for review. Outside of that I'm not sure what else can be done?

Yes! I tried that yesterday ( only log on to SM).. I was just on SM and I have a dedicated cam for it, so I don't use splitcam software. anywho! it was still lagging! just being on there alone.. it's weird to me.. sometimes this happens and then it fixes itself one day..lol... but it's been like 4 days.. I read that not having enough lighting can cause lag.. I dunno? I think I have have this cam for 4 yrs now.. maybe less. could be 3 don't remember. Camera in the background? what do you mean?

WOW 4 years? is it a Logitech c920? I have to change mine once a year. Maybe even more? The quality depreciates over time and may be a subtle change that can mean a lot. Especially on SM. One of my C920 webcams only gets a bitrate of 800 on SM and the SM Broadcaster read it as moderate and wanted me to recalibrate. So nope I hooked up my newer C920 from last summber and got Very High bitrate 3000's and 1600x896 never heard of that resolution but thats what it gave me.
As for camera in the background I meant to say put a lamp in the background for filler lights. Just make sure its not blinding light. Something with a shade on it will do.

Anyone else getting booted off the encoder & having their fps drop during privates nonfuckingstop today?

As a foot note if you view on mobile the delay is high anyway like 5-9 seconds. On pc no delay at all.
1600x896 give it a Google you will be surprised how higb quality an image is.
I have been avoiding that setting but its just under 1080p Streamate only requires 720p.
Also since the i7 seams to be the be all and end all. Virtual realty amd is way ahead of Intel in this area. And windows 10 actually make use of all 8 cores now and multi core gpu ☺ when directx 12 comes out. Cheaper cheaper and cheaper for cam

You mean the 720 HD settings SM recommends? that's what I have been using and only recently had a problem.. I was really liking the 1600x settings.. but it's using way to much for my computer.. damn and this thing I just got in January.. gaming pc.. not gaming enough!.. maybe I should go to windows 10.. I am familiar with it as I use it on my laptop.. just don't like it as much.

Worked 2 hrs on SM and less than 4 dollars, feel like crying. Went on for another hour to see if anything improved and nothing did. I even offered a special on my rates. No takers. :( Went back on for another hour or so shift and it was worse than the last 3. Is some weeks just not your week? Last week I did the best I ever did on the site.

don't hate yourself. there were almost 2k models on today during the day shift. that is an insane amount of models, god knows how we were looking to customers. i got the feeling not a lot of folks could see me when it reached 1900...just lots of in and outs.

I had a lot of guys complaining they could hear me but not see me. I re-connected 5 or 6 times and that fixed it. For a while. Then it started happening again. At this point I literally use SM to amuse myself while I wait for shows on other sites. I used to make my whole daily goal on SM, today I made $12. Glad I have other sites or I'd be up shit creek.

Some "guy" came into my room today and had his response on what he wanted pretty quick (copy/pasted type thing). I was smiling, happy and did what was asked. The asshat rated me 2 stars after 2 mins. Seems kinda fishy why not a 1 star? Well because 1 stars are easily removed. Once this rating posted to my profile, my placement TANKED. I kid you not. Middle of page 1 to page 2. I can't redeem myself. I'm so quitting camming this year. I can't take this shit anymore. Exit plan in effect through summer 2016. I'm out and done with competing for pennies. I deserve better than this. I'm smarter than this. I'm sooooo much better than this. (Holding back tears). I have a family to feed and I don't play around like that.

You are not alone. I split 4 sites yesterday, guess which one I earned the least on?????? STREAMATE. I use to make my whole goal on SM as well, yesterday I only made $10 on there. I will be working 4 or more sites from now on to ensure that I make my daily goal. If I didn't start split-camming again I dunna wtf I'd do.

Today I tried to do my very first show, but Streamate said it couldn't find my camera! :(
I have been using this webcam for years and in fact only just used it about 2 hours prior. It's plugged in, connected fine and works when I try it out in its own window. It just won't be "found" on Streamate for some reason.
How do I fix this frustrating situation and get the cam to somehow connect to Streamate? I have been looking through the troubleshooting area, but it only says to make sure my camera is connected properly. It obviously is if I can see myself in it and record etc at the same time it won't be found on Streamate! :(
Thank you!

Waste of time last night was. 30 guys at one point in my room and only $15 in 3hours.
I noticed that SM has updated alot of the site and it was silky smooth last night no blips just loads and loads of wont talk traffic. Because hey guys dont have debit cards they think they need credit cards. Shit pre pay debit cards would be something.
Felicity
Unplug your webcam. Are you using the website or the SM broadcast?
If you use the website there is normally a box for flash that opens asing for permission to use the cam and mic. You need to set to allow.
If SM broadcast. after you log into it you need to click the cog for options and select the cam from the dropdown box.
Make sure you have the most upto date drivers for your cam.
Adobe encoder I have never tried.

I was using the website, not SM broadcast. I did try that option (along with all the others), but nothing happened.
I have allowed all the device things the flash box asked me to.

You mean the 720 HD settings SM recommends? that's what I have been using and only recently had a problem.. I was really liking the 1600x settings.. but it's using way to much for my computer.. damn and this thing I just got in January.. gaming pc.. not gaming enough!.. maybe I should go to windows 10.. I am familiar with it as I use it on my laptop.. just don't like it as much.
QUOTE=Selenasecret;2870760]Windows 10 will free up some resources however if your windows 7 works fine why bother.
1600x setting is extremely high try the 720p 600 settings as they still higb quality but will place less stress on the cpu[/QUOTE]
When you say gaming pc. What are the actual specs?
I7 can be a multitude of different things.
2gig / 3gig / 4gig. 2 core 4 core 6 core 8 core?
I prefer amd myself windows 10 really makes use of the amd stuff and they have literally just come into their own now multicore stuff is working to use all the cores.
For example my £50 amd athlon x4 860k. Is as fast as an i5 that costs £200. Which was the cost of my entire cam pc. Yet it streams fine at 35-40% cpu at 720p best setting. ( I think the poor / good / high / very high / best is down to lighting)
You cant beat a parts put together pc. As turbo settings and what not. However you also cant beat the ease of use a brandname pc has for re setting should something go wrong.
If you try msconfig.exe. And Google how to use it you can shut off any start up tasks and stuff that might be clogging the cpu up ( background tasks)
But I am not joking I use a £200 pc. Made out of Amazon sale parts. It streams fine and I get good listings. I only have zonealarm firewall avg antivirus and adaware malware running in the back ground.
Its the paying traffic I struggle with cheap bastards.

You are not alone. I split 4 sites yesterday, guess which one I earned the least on?????? STREAMATE. I use to make my whole goal on SM as well, yesterday I only made $10 on there. I will be working 4 or more sites from now on to ensure that I make my daily goal. If I didn't start split-camming again I dunna wtf I'd do.

today my fps keeps dropping into the red and then after about a minute of that i get disconnected from sm broadcast..... my kbps remains 3k+ after it disconnects it goes back to 30fps so i reconnect and get about 5 mins before the same thing happens.... any ideas?
^^^ On my last shift on wednesday i got online with the SM Broadcaster and after 2 mins of streaming i got disconnected, i signed back in with the Adobe Encoder and was able to stay connected the whole shift & also got an old regular into exclusive that i knew he was using his mobile, he always does as he hides from his wife lol, this regular emailed me the other day telling me he misses me & he cant connect to my room for some reason.
Then when i got disconnected from SMB it came to my mind my regular message and decided to get on with the FMLE and it was good decision cause right away this guy came into exclusive and stayed connected for over 30 mins w.o a problem. No more SMB till they make that thing work properly!

I can't even get logged on to SM. I keep getting that email/pw don't work. Reset the PW and try both copying and pasting my email/new pw and typing them in and I keep getting nothing. I keep getting that MFC is down too so I guess I'm just getting on the phone today...after spending my time getting make up on.
