Mixer and Vods

This is mostly a question for the mods but if people want to chime in with their opinions then feel free.

Recently I streamed on mixer and since all looked good on obs and since I wasn’t locally recording I decided to just grab the vod and was planning on editing it down for a submission. However when double checking the vod there are random sections where the vod hangs for 1-2seconds before catching up to the game (often with the graphics being distorted across the screen obscuring the video).

Now I understand that there is a very good chance that if submitted this run would be rejected as it would make it harder for mods to determine the validity of the run, but I was just wondering what exactly is the threshold for when things like this (if there is one) which would lead to the video being rejected. It affects I would estimate about 6-7seconds of my entire vod (about 3 times in various places).

(Also question to anyone using mixer) I was streaming using ftl which is the lower latency connection for mixer, does rmtp lead to better vods rn?

Hi, I can't really say weather or not the run will be accepted unless I see it. If you want you can DM me the vod either from SR.C, or on Discord and I can tell you for sure. From what you are saying though it could be fine.

I do know that Mixer runs rarely get verified, and that's not just from a Re3R perspective. Mixer tends to have problems keeping there quality/frames in tack for some reason, so I really do urge you to locally record just in case something does happens.

To message me on Sr.c just go to my profile and you will see a "send message" under one of the tabs. :)

Thanks for the reply but I’ve not long seen the news about mixer. It’s ending on 22nd July, the timing right? Haha

I’ll cut down the vod though and I’ll send you a message later.

This can be closed now if anyone would be so kind :)
