How to stream with 0.34MB/s Upload Speed?

[TheVideosChannel]

Helolo!

I would like to stream but every time I try it never lasts more than 3 seconds. I use OBS and my specs are here:

Here is my speeds:

As you can see its very BAD, but I watched people on youtube who streamed with bad speeds, just watch this tutorial here.

 

Please HELP!

Honestly, 0.34Mbps is simply not enough for streaming, even with super low settings. 

[manikyath]

you stream by having a good cpu for encoding (quick sync and nvenc are a joke at low bitrate) and by streaming at 480p 30 fps

 

EDIT: i did a typo, i fix.

the only thing other than getter a better service package is to reduce the size and quality or your upload.

 

instead of uploading in 1080 for example, try 360

I told you this earlier, promoting your youtube channel as much as linking it in a slightly related post is against the community guidelines.

Not possible

To put it simply, not gonna happen.

 

If you want to make money off youtube / streaming, a service with higher upload will pay for itself

Not really possible, only good option would be better internet.

Nah, I could stream fine with 1.8 mb/s, but it wasn't very high bitrate and 720P at +- 30 fps

ive seen people stream with 1 up. just they have to have a super low bitrate so the stream looks like shit

What specs are your pc? And what software will you be using? Also you will more than probably be streaming in 240p...

Not a chance

It says their provider in the speedtest snapshot. ATT U Verse.

FALSE ! Twitch only allows 4.5mb/s for top streamers.  0.3 is absolutely terrible even for 240p... Nobody will watch that. Not even friends.

Sorry didnt see that, should of known with it being ookla though...

0.3 MB/s is about 2.4 mbps.  For fluent streaming, you can probably rely on just  1 mbps, maybe 1.2-1.5 mbps.

 

At such low bitrates, the first thing you could cut without user being affected that much would be sound quality. Usually, you'd use 192kbps MP3 or 128 kbps AAC for stereo 48kHz.  You can switch to mono sound and you reduce that bitrate to half without any significant quality drop, so you're down to about 56kbps AAC for mono 44100-48000 hz sound.  You could probably safely go down to about 32-48 kbps AAC but then the sound would be resampled to 24000-32000 Hz which is still fine for talking but if you're streaming games sound quality would be affected.

So you're left with about 850-900 kbps of your 1 mbps budget, which you can spend on video. At such low bitrate, 640x360 would be ideal if you're streaming lots of colors and motion (games)... for you in front of a camera with static background or for desktop capture, you can probably go with 960x540 (~ 16:9)

In OBS, you'd need to use x264 software encoding, AND you'd need to tweak the settings to spend more time analyzing the frames to keep more quality in that 1mbps. By default, the encoder is configured for higher bitrates (like 3-5 mbps) and to spend as little processing time to encode that, allowing more processing time for game engines.

How come you have such bad internet?

Not.

Pro tip: You don't.

You misread the Speedtest graph.

 

That's 0.3 Megabits per second, not MegaBytes per second.
