You should try using OBS (Open Broadcasting Software). It's better than xplit and uses less processing power. Some people report not being able to stream in 720p in xplit and then being able to do 1080p at 60 fps with no issue or frame drop with OBS. Also it's free. http://obsproject.com/

But still, your upload is quite low, you won't be able to have a smooth and clear screen unless you go over 1000-1500 kpbs, which is impossible with your connection. Try using a lower resolution I guess.

Xsplit rocks. Your upload sucks. Plain and simple. Argue with your Internet provider and double check your getting the speeds your paying for.

Just to double check, that's 0.8 mb/s for upload correct?

Look here steakhead, I didn't ask for your 2 bit
Try using ~ 600 kbps bitrate(unless that's higher than what you currently stream at), you don't want your bitrate to be the same as your upload because if it goes higher than what you can upload, it results in dropped frames.

You can try changing the preset to faster(if you have a decent computer, the lower you go the more CPU intense), lower the quality and make sure you're streaming to the right location. I drop of frames on a 8mbps up connection when connected to US East: Ashburn, VA but it's perfect when I connect to US East: Ashburn, VA(Secondary). Amount of frames you're streaming at, as well as the stage resolution should be the lowest required




Also de-interlace your video source, that's why you get those lines over your character when moving. You can find this option by right-clicking on your video capture source and choosing one of the de-interlace options.

If you're not directly connected to the modem(As in, you're going through a router), you can try directly connecting to get a higher speed. If you're on wireless you can try a direct connection to the router.
