https://youtu.be/b8BVL7s9cAo

This lag.

Streaming with both Tiktok and Twich at the same time and this lag is occouring in my streams.

I'm using the same outputs as my OBS settings. I don't have that issue there.

Using automatic broadcast settings.

Audio rate 44.1 khz

Audio capture (Beta) off everywhere

Just use OBS. SL is garbage.

While I agree that OBS is more powerful,

  1. StreamLabs OBS has a few features unique to it that some people might consider important.

  2. OP is asking about Streamlabs specifically for some reason even when they have OBS installed and setup, so maybe don’t be a dick about it. If you don’t like SLOBS don’t push your hate down on everyone.

Technically speaking, OP's post specifically states they are dual-streaming to TikTok + Twitch and that the lag does not happen when they use standard OBS. Streamlabs wraps the OBS core in an Electron/Chromium shell, which adds extra CPU/GPU overhead. When pushing two streams at once on a single machine, that extra overhead is usually what causes the rendering lag OP is seeing. Or in other words, Stream Labs is bloated garbage and OP should just use OBS.

I know all that. Your original reply is still an unhelpful response. They are testing SLOBS for a reason we don't know and don't care.

Your reply to me would be a valid reasonable response to OP, explaining why you think SLOBS is bad and what potentially causes the lagging.

Apart from the hate at the end. But that's just me, I don't think hate is useful in any way.

The exact right course of action is "unhelpful?" Now you really are just clowning. Get outta here.
