Jan. 22nd, 2017 10:46 pmI figured out the streaming issues. Kinda. So, when the roomies aren't here, I can stream games at 672kbps. This is the best quality I can do. When they're here, I'd drop it to 336kbps, which looks terrible, and why I'd only stream while they weren't here.
Tonight, during the stream, my roomies began streaming movies and connection began to suffer. So I dropped it back down to 336, but then slowly upped the number until frames began dropping. Turns out the magic number is 475kbps. This allows them to watch movies, and me to stream. Not the best quality, but for the 2D Zeldas, plenty enough, according the viewers watching.
So, I can schedule honest to goodness streams again! Once we get to the 3D games, though, that's where things might get a little wonky. But that's a ways off (A Link Between Worlds or even Majora's Mask).
