    Have you tested your connection speed to the twitch server?

    Connection info is definitely needed to diagnose a problem like that

    Try adjusting the power level

    If you're using xsplit do the bandwidth test in xsplit itself

    Done.
    Average data rate: 594 kbps.
    Dropped frames: 566
    Your bandwidth to server is probably not sufficient.
    You can redo the test, but if the test consistently gives you a RED signal, you may consider lowering your combined audio bitrate and max video bitrate to below 1612 kbps.

    That's to the Default location? Yeesh, New York is getting obliterated.

    Change your location in your channel settings to Ashburn VA 's Secondary server and test again.

    i think its safe to say that made a huge difference

    Huge difference is an understatement, haha
    This is precisely why I always tell people to choose the best server for their location instead of using Default :o
