Hey all! So for the past three or four days I have been trying to stream on SM, only to experience an onslaught of technical issues that seem to be on my end (unless SM is just a giant permaglitch now). I really would like to work on SM as opposed to other sites so I'm trying to work this out. Wondering if anyone can give me any insight! (Sorry in advance for the long-ish post, I am frustrated and over-caffeinated).
I'll start off by saying I just tested my internet on testmy.net and got a download speed of 26.2 and an upload speed of 25.2. My computer is a Lenovo X220.
So, first off I tried with SM Broadcaster, before I realized I could check my own stream. I got my friend to check it since I was making $0, she checked in and called it "literally unwatchable."
Then I tried downloading the Adobe encoder, which I haven't played around with much because when I contacted SM they told me to download the OBS encoder - so I tried with some of the preset settings, and experienced a visual lag, an audio lag that didn't match up with my mouth, and also terrible white noise. The white noise I suspect could be my webcam, a Logitech c525 that I've had for a while.
So I moved on to OBS studio, which gave me issues, and then to OBS classic. It gives me the same issues, plus any sound I make will be repeated continuously. So for example, if I say the word "test," what I will hear is "test.......test......test......test....test.. .." with a bunch of weird glitchy sounds. If you've ever wanted to see a camgirl themed horror movie, you should tune in. It's creepy af. I went through all the advice in the OBS thread, and the most I could fix was the audio lag, so the words actually fit my mouth. But they would still repeat.
Just tested SM Broadcaster right now again, and it's the same thing.
So I guess I'm asking, has anyone else had this issue and how did you fix it? Is my best option just to cam with one of the non encoder options and accept that I won't recieve top placement until something changes? Do I perhaps need a new laptop? Is there a very clear solution that I'm simply blind to? Let me know your experiences!
And one last question - if I were to leave SM, what sites would you reccomend for a not bbw but very curvy girl? I never see girls my size on the front of Chaturbate or MFC, but frequently see them on SM at the top, which is why I've been toughing it out.
