/s4s/ - anime pillow fight

the stream was buffering every few seconds when i looked at it

what’s your bitrate set to

i didn't see today, yesterday was perfectly fine though

>>48721
10000kbps nvenc h.264 160kbps aac

hold on let me stream a recording and someone tell me if it's unwatchable

>>48723
might be too high for the servers to handle

>>48724
it's still freezing at 5000kbps for me
and also 2500kbps

wtf

the first time i tried streaming here, people were complaining about it buffering and i ended up lowering it to like 2000kbps at 720p and it's been perfectly fine since then (for most viewers)

>>48727
oh, forgot to mention, it was 720p@30fps

I changed the stream quality to 720p@30fps 2500kbps.

I can't get the stream to buffer or crash at any settings on my phone running mobile chrome but other people report stream freezing at bitrates over 2500kbps so I think I'll just use that.

esfotes greatest minds are on the issue

>>48731
i just wanted to say 'apotropaic' because it's a fun word and i like it

>>48732
it's a nice word and i appreciate you for saying it

i have the stream bitrate set to 1250kbps and nobodys mentioned freezing yet maybe its fixed!

>>48733
did you know that the first clear evidence of the divine name 'yhwh' (yahweh or adonai) being used to refer to a diety is an apotropaic amulet buried with someone which contains a few lines from the book of numbers? the amulet dates to around the 9th century bce and shows how early yahwists likely worshiped their ancestors and made offerings to them to keep them safe in sheol, which likely continued on until the cult centralization that happened under josiah following the demolition of temples around israel and judah by sennacherib. also the first evidence of christianity in northern europe is also an apotropaic amulet in germany !! history is very interesting

no i didn't know that but that's super cool and sugoi desu wa

>>48736
this isn't the first evidence of the term yhwh though, there is actually an egyptian stele from around 1200bce that says that the pharaoh merneptah conquered a lot of kingdoms and people groups in the near east (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merneptah_Stele) and one of the groups mentioned (not a kingdom, but a people group) are identified as 'yhwʔ'. this- historians believe- explains why none of the other canaanite cultures in the area of israel and judah have stories about yhwh adonai. the prevailing theory is that yhwh was the name of a people group from the arabian peninsula which migrated into the levant and adopted the divine profile of baal (a young storm and war diety) to represent their patron diety yhwh adonai (there are psalms and verses throughout the bible which seem to be about baal but rewritten to refer to yhwh instead). and then later yhwh was conflated with el and that's a whole other story

yhw hwat now

ok so just to clarify a couple of things, what settings you make on your end, they really shouldn't matter (unless the quality/bitrate is super high, you'll see the reason for that below)

the way it works, the server takes whatever you are sending it, and transcodes it into two preset quality streams (i should really look into increasing the quality for these, but you can't just add a dozen presets because  the server is transcoding the video into these regardless if someone is actually using them or not)

so really, what settings you use really shouldn't matter unless you overload the server with a really high bitrate and it cannot cope with transcoding it, but that doesn't really explain   the behaviour i also saw (video starts buffering, and keeps buffering until you reload the browser) 

this is currently not happening at all for whoever is streaming yuru yuri right now, and the server is not even breaking a sweat transcoding the stream cpu wise

one more thing, there's also a passthrough quality preset you can select when watching the stream, this basically should provide you with the unaltered stream that is being sent from the streamer, however this is when the streamers settings will actually matter, as this will only work if the video stream is compatible with it being playable in a browser 

however, it will always work if you were to load the stream in an actual player, i just loaded the yuru yuri stream using the passthrough option in mpv and it works, and apart from it looking better there's noticeably less latency as i'm getting the stream directly from whoever streaming it 

comparing the video streams i suspect the reason the passthrough option is not working in the browser is because the h264 profile that is being used is "high" while the two transcoded streams from the server are all "constrained baseline", but it's kinda weird "high" profile should be supported by browsers too from everything i read online about it

anyway, the easiest way to test if your stream is going to support the passthrough option would  be to make a recording using the same settings you use for streaming and then trying to play it in a browser

basically op’s pc is haunted

'pudding_gril' bro that's flanyuu
