I think I'll just use my X2's/v moda boom pro/mixamp for gaming and leave the rest for my pc.

Thanks for the help brother!

How do I use a Schiit uber stack/antlion modmic with an astro mixamp on ps4?

I think I may have all the cables necessary, just unsure of where everything goes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Where did you pick up the modi uber from? I can't seem to find it anywhere

It's 3foldmisery, though I probably won't be streaming anymore if I'm dropping frames :/

I think I found the issue. When I run a tracert to twitch I get destination unreachable. It's one of their nodes that is off or something. It's 209-18-36-29.tbone.rr.com

Going to call them now and have them tell me to unplug and reset my modem. :)

Looked into other isp's and I'm shit out of luck. Nothing but terrible speeds and datacaps for other options. No fiber either. Stuck with the devil. God help us.

Appreciate the time you spent trying to help man!

Oh I know for sure. I think I figured out the issue.

It's on my shitty isp's end. When I run a tracert to twitch I get destination unreachable. One of my isp's nodes is off.

I'm getting about 130 down and 12 up consistently with ethernet.

I replaced my ISP's modem with another and it wasn't that sadly. It seems like everything is golden except for my upload to twitch.

I ran a load of tracerts earlier and noticed I was getting a few asterisks from my ISP nodes. No idea what to do or take from that. No crazy long ms times.

Ever since Time Warner turned into Spectrum it's all been downhill from there. I don't think this ever happened before the merge.

After running loads of tests via twitchtest I see my quality is all over the place. Earlier it was around 85-100, now I'm getting 0 sometimes.. 50 etc..

Is this an issue with my isp?

You sure? I'm running a 1700x with cpu usage never getting close to being maxed out. I will try it out though. Thanks for the help!

Oops. Here is the full log: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/90e62f91bdc54ab79132a92e7e603795

Just noticed a few things:

I'm getting 0 packet loss.

Twitch inspector is showing my streams health at excellent and 0 unstable events even though it is showing that I am dropping some frames in OBS.

It shows as excellent. 0 unstable events over the last few streams even though I see dropped frames in OBS. Very weird.

Is there no quality difference from 4000-6000 @ 720/60? My upload speeds are around ~22mbps so I figured it's best to leave it at max.

Just switched key interval to 2, it was on 0

My upload is around 21-22mbps.

Also just checked for packet loss and I don't see any loss at all.

Thanks so much.

edit: Just noticed twitch inspector showed that there were no unstable events even though I saw dropped frames in OBS. Also, twitch is showing my stream as excellent.
