Did the 8,000kbps trick work for you? Like this video if it did, don't not like it if it didn't. Edit: Lots of people are suggesting that the reason 7,800kbps worked but 8,000kbps didn't was because I didn't account for audio bitrate. I tested this but didn't include it in the video. This does not seem relevant, as a flat 8,000kbps works for some people but not others. Regardless, 200kbps is not a meaningful difference, so don't sweat it if 8,000kbps doesn't work for you. Just lower by increments of 100kbps until it does work.
I believe the 8000kbps limit is a total, this includes video and audio. So If you're streaming with 320 kbps audio, the limit for video is 7680 kbps. If that helps.
Best bitrate is 7679... Reason is audio still have to be processed so if you add the 320 for audio you get 7999 which is a sweet spot 🙃... If you stream at 8000 you'll see on twitch sometimes the bitrate shoots to 8400 and you sound like a robot.
Why would you set the audio at 320? 160 is more than enough since it should be using AAC. Also, audio bitrate should be included in the streaming bitrate, so if you set it to 6000, it already includes the audio bitrate, you don't add the audio bitrate.
Thank you for explaining source quality, as Harris Heller recently ran a “test” of “Twitch’s encoding” where he streamed on Twitch and captured the stream 1000 times to show generational loss. Obviously it looked awful (why wouldn’t it?) but I was very disappointed by how the chat almost universally blamed the quality loss on Twitch. It was maddening, as Twitch had nothing to do with the quality unless he was capturing the 720p transcode and rebroadcasting at a 1080p source. Otherwise, there was no reason to stream the test and it was only actually testing the capture and output settings of his OBS. It could have been a real eye opener for people to learn about generational quality loss, but instead turned into an opportunity for people to blame Twitch for something they had nothing to do with and no one understood.
Funny thing people don't seem to understand, but streams technically look better on Twitch than they do on TH-cam because TH-cam transcodes *everything*. Your stream is being double encoded but people just think "Oh it accepts more than 8,000kbps? That means it's better."
@@nuttylmao this mindset exists at all levels too. I’m an indie filmmaker who had to shoot my last film in 8K raw because the RED camera package had a in-camera 2x crop at 4K. I went asking around to other filmmakers how they were dealing with post production with these absolutely massive raw files. They were ALL transcoding on ingest, not just for proxy editing, but actually converting the raw to ProRes HQ BEFORE the color grading stage. I have no idea why people are shooting in raw just to bake the footage at first chance! In the end, somehow I was able to color grade a 90 minute movie in 8K raw (output to 4K) in Davinci Resolve with only an Nvidia 1070 and no generation loss other than a few FX shots.
@@nuttylmao Streams can look better on Twitch or TH-cam, it depends on what you're doing. If you send the same 8000 kbps or lower 1080p stream to TH-cam and Twitch, Twitch's source quality is going to be far and away the best. But if you send TH-cam a 1440p or 4k high bitrate stream TH-cam will transcode it with VP9 and it will look considerably better than what is possible within Twitch's bitrate limits. The cost of this is latency. TH-cam's lowest latency option doesn't support 1440p or 4k and the transcodes really look bad.
We NEED this very same thing for TH-cam Streams- Its like nobody without a big channel has figured it out yet, talking about upscaling 720p to 1080p with 10k bitrate something or something like that.
This is kind of content that the Internet needs. I had a question, your video was the exact answer and you got to the answer immediately. I set my bitrate to 300,000 kbps (that's the highest number OBS let me enter), my entire stream was only 720p. And I was watching a replay today, noticed the only 720p option, googled, landed here; now set the bitrate to 8000. Thank you! Love your channel's tricks, got the Stream deck after seeing your video. Thanks!
For all the doubters: this has been true for the past 2-3 years. The creator dashboard will say that your stream is unstable, but that will not be true, if you have another device to watch it on, it will be just fine.
How bout me - i dont have that shit in my OBS. when i go to settings i dont have any of that. Nothing to toggle. There is nothing on the window i open shown in the video.
It's worth noting that when you stream at 8k for whatever reason the Twitch Dashboard claims that your stream is "Unstable" with red text under the stream health section. In my experience, it does this to anything above 6-7k. Now that doesn't mean that anything is really unstable, I think that's just how the dashboard was designed. Amazing video Nutty, I'm sure this will answer a LOT of questions, much love!
@@divacroft1034 Huh? It absolutely does lol. In fact, the sweet spot is nearly 7.2k where the only artifacting if any is due to the encoding process. Hopefully this changes when AV1 becomes standard, but it'll have to do for now.
I'm an affiliate and I've been streaming at 8000 bitrate for over a month now and no real problem . Twitch's official tools , like creator dashboard or twitch inspector , will scream at you that it's unstable but nothing ever happens . Could you do some videos on how 8000 bitrate looks with different encoder settings? Like x264 1080p60 verfast vs fast or whatever
I wont stop watching as I appreciate your knowledge @ 0:40 - Legit, keep the content coming as you are making humanity better as your tutorials help express ourselves
Dang, I wish you talked about how bitrate and internet speed go hand in hand. Like my upload speed for my home internet I don't think can even handle 8000kbps.
Yeah i found a vid explaining that. Basically get ur upload speed subtract one or two points from it then multiply by 1000 what it equals to is your recomended bit rate.
So say my upload speed is 4. Subtract a point so we end with 3. Multiply by 1000. We get 3000. Thats my bit rate. Now u can check online what recomended settings are best for ur bit rate.
We need to start a petition to have all TH-camrs start their videos exactly like how nutty started this one! Thank you. Not only will I watch the rest of the video, I'll also subscribe.
Hi Nutty! As a non-partnered streamer that is using this method from some time now, i can say that the first time i saw that my stream had no Source Quality on 8000kbps i was surprised, but later i found out that refreshing the browser tab got it to work properly without restarting stream or lowering bitrate. Maybe it's an option for anyone having this trouble.. Great video by the way!
I just wanted to say thank you, I liked and subed literally because your the only TH-cam I've ever seen on a tutorial that didn't waste 5 minutes on an introduction.
8000 Kb/s is the overall maximum bitrate for video AND audio. So if your video is at 8000 and your audio is at 128, the total bitrate is 8128, which is higher than the overall limit. Lowering video bitrate to 7800~something leaves some room for 128 Kb/s of the audio and the whole thing is below 8000, so the Twitch allows it. Partners are capped at 8500 Kb/s, so even when setting up the 8000 on the video, you can still use 320 on the audio and be below that limit. So technically, as a partner you can cap your quality EXACTLY at 8180 for the video, if the audio is at 320. This is why setting it up to higher numbers, like 9000, doesn't work
I was literally asking myself if source quality was in the VOD right before you talked about it. There's some really interesting finds here tbh, big thank you for this!
Dude I watched about 6 videos about improving quality of streams and this is BY FAR the best video I've watched. You explained everything perfectly and held my attention the whole time! Thank you so much!
For 8bit, SDR, 4:2:0 "gaming streams" (super fast motion with tons of effects, particles, etc): 9mbps for 1080p60 (Balanced Quality) 12mbps for 1080p60 (High Quality) 18mbps for 1440p60 (Balanced Quality) 24mbps for 1440p60 (High Quality) This is just what i recommend based on my own testing with the RADEON H.264 encoder & X264 Faster; with NVenc (new) or a higher quality X264 tier (like medium) you can get away with way less bitrate for similar quality. PD: "High Quality" is basically the video quality youtube gives you after transcoding regular uploded content (like this video).
WAIT. How do you change the bitrate mid-stream?!? I’ve had so many issues with having to start streams over to change that, I’ve stopped streaming altogether because it’s too frustrating
As far as I know you can only do this on obs studio not stream labs obs. But you just go into your output settings and change your bitrate and then hit apply and it will change your bitrate
@@Chinte it never lets me do that while streaming… I use StreamElements OBS, which as far as I know is the same as OBS Studio just with extra plug ins and docks. If I try to change it mid-stream, it’s blocked out
@@ScarletCait I change my bitrate all the time mid-stream for years no issues. Settings --> Output --> Bitrate (3000kbps-6000kbps) --> Apply & Ok. This change happens instantly while "LIVE" and I do it often each month.
Nutty you read my mind, I was looking for this yesterday and I had settings for 1920x1080 but it was still a bit blurry, and no other channel had the ignore limit tip, so I thank you so much. On top of that all your content is amazing, and I want you to know youre amazing!! Keep up the great work, ill be here supporting you the whole time!
For those who want to min-max, my guess is that 8192 is the actual hard cap (2^13) or maybe 1 lower than that. This is not confirmed though so if someone would like to test this and report back here I'd be all ears.
I've jumped from Twitch Streaming to TH-cam Streaming for about 4 months now but i'm here because Nutty videos be very entertaining even if it's just a tutorial video.
In Streamlabs OBS there is no Ignore Streaming Service box however under Output there is an 'enfore streaming service encoder settings' box do I check or uncheck that?
Thank you for making a video on this. I have been streaming at this bitrate for awhile now despite the fact that everyone had been clingy to the same information that 6mps was the cap without doing any test their selves.
but the problem of sending 8Kbps and the viewers CAN'T load that amount, getting a black screen or infinite loading, get worse, right? i use 720@60 at 4500kbs, and no complains here on Brazil of my viewers.
I mentioned this toward the end of the video. This was not about what I recommend, this is purely about what the maximum allowable bitrate. I'm not saying this is a good idea.
@@smuk123 I have 200/60mpbs D/U. So i have 6000kbps "max" of uploanding. Never got a problem after putting 4500kbps, meaning quality, stability and viewers errors.
Sub earned and I am just 2:57 in. This is exactly what I have been looking for, someone to explain how bitrate is effecting my stream. It's a big deal to me because I don't have a lot of RAM
And I am streaming VR gameplay so I'm already using quite a bit of CPU and GPU. I needed a way to balance those out with my quality and performance. So I needed to know all of this 😃
Twitch used to punish by truncating the bitrate at 6000kbits. They've slowly raised the limit. The safest bitrate, though, is 7000. Some ingest servers still seem to truncate at 6000. Heads-up!
They can't truncate to 6,000kbps, otherwise it wouldn't be source quality anymore. They either deliver it or they don't. I've been streaming at 8,000kbps for over two years, this isn't anything new.
i use Restream, and stream to them with 7500 to satisfy all the endpoints they delivering to. but the cool part is that restream can actually transcode for you to the settings you prefer.
I’ve played around with this and as an affiliate on Twitch I can stream at the 7750 with no problems. However, on TH-cam I can stream at 25,000 without problems and that looks pretty darn crisp. Now that I’m at the end of this comment, I want to see if Nutty is really paying attention. I saw something towards the end of this video that just exploded my mind completely! Something that is so easy and probably the most big brain move I’ve seen for a stream setup! Won’t say what I saw, but damn, son.
@@nuttylmao that screen size in the stats. Are those your settings in OBS? It seems to be the perfect size for video on a mobile device rather than the standard 1920x1080
You're literally a legend man, thank you so much for what you do!
Hey, its the destiny dude.
Literally? Hes literally a legend?

Yes, but what is the recommended highest bitrate for youtube streamers?
Last i checked before 8k hdr became an option 45k bitrate for 4k no hdr.
For 8bit, SDR, 4:2:0 "gaming streams" (super fast motion with tons of effects, particles, etc):
9mbps for 1080p60 (Balanced Quality)
12mbps for 1080p60 (High Quality)
18mbps for 1440p60 (Balanced Quality)
24mbps for 1440p60 (High Quality)
This is just what i recommend based on my own testing with the RADEON H.264 encoder & X264 Faster; with NVenc (new) or a higher quality X264 tier (like medium) you can get away with way less bitrate for similar quality.
PD: "High Quality" is basically the video quality youtube gives you after transcoding regular uploded content (like this video).

This helped alot
I am a simple man
But when nutty upload I click fast
(I know it doesn't rhyme)
Thanks for explaining how to get 8k bitrate working!
Youd be surprised how many "smart cookies" are out there streaming 1080P @ 2500kbs
Good stuff thanks!
When you started talking about McDonalds I thought I just had a stroke and was watching a completely different video
The discord notification, the Titanic remix, or the convo about chicken.
Why did I just watched ?
you deserve a sub and i wish i could say that with as much umph as i mean it
"I'm not an asshole" he says while also placing a random discord notification sound. That was actually so cursed LMAO
@4:10 Can confirm, I'm still waiting for a mate. Only thing that would of made that joke hit harder was if the time stamp was at 4:20
that discord ping at the start caught me off guard
haha yeah I totally checked my discord twice. Goteem
Thanks nutty.
"I'm not an asshole"
Proceeds to use the Discord notification sound as a censor sound causing me to look at my messages
Twitch used to punish by truncating the bitrate at 6000kbits. They've slowly raised the limit. The safest bitrate, though, is 7000. Some ingest servers still seem to truncate at 6000. Heads-up!
They can't truncate to 6,000kbps, otherwise it wouldn't be source quality anymore. They either deliver it or they don't. I've been streaming at 8,000kbps for over two years, this isn't anything new.
Extra Chick-filet sauce is always appreciated
i use Restream, and stream to them with 7500 to satisfy all the endpoints they delivering to.
but the cool part is that restream can actually transcode for you to the settings you prefer.
I’ve played around with this and as an affiliate on Twitch I can stream at the 7750 with no problems. However, on TH-cam I can stream at 25,000 without problems and that looks pretty darn crisp. Now that I’m at the end of this comment, I want to see if Nutty is really paying attention. I saw something towards the end of this video that just exploded my mind completely! Something that is so easy and probably the most big brain move I’ve seen for a stream setup! Won’t say what I saw, but damn, son.
I'm listening...
@@nuttylmao that screen size in the stats. Are those your settings in OBS? It seems to be the perfect size for video on a mobile device rather than the standard 1920x1080
@@nuttylmao what audio bitrate do you use for streaming? You said that ur daily CBR bitrate 8000, what about audio?
As someone which is streaming in 1440p, thats gonna be juicy useful hehehe
