oh yeah, that too. completely forgot about that. I'll add that to the guide and update the first pot accordingly. thanks for reminding me, unf

Any way this could interfere with the other broadcast channel?
Same channel but not custom RTMP.

I installed this for no reason really, but I got over 10Mbps bandwidth to twitch now.

However ever since I tried it my ping in TF2 has been bonkers when streaming. Spiking between 200 and 400 with both RTMP setups when the non-custom one worked perfectly without ping issues before.

Any clue what could be causing this?

anyone else stream using tcprelay have input on this?

First this has helped a lot. But I was wondering for those of my friends who dont stream would this work for getting a better connection to a match server?

Initializing connection to server...
Trying to stream maximum data rate of 4224 kbps...
Initializing transmission to server... (100%)
Unable to connect to server.
Aborted.

Any tips?

Fixed it, woohoo! Cheers.

Well, the source code is available on the xsplit thread, so if you want to play around with it to make TF2 redirect bandwidth through localhost instead of XSplit, then by all means, download it and fiddle to your heart's content.

Also, people who were having problems with ping spikes: did that get resolved eventually or does it still happen when you run TCPrelay and tf2 at the same time?
