Under Video, your Video Adapter should be set to your default graphics card. In the Audio Encoding section, Twitch recommends using an AAC codec with a bitrate of 64 to 128 kbps. If this number is lower than 3,300, enter it in the Max Bitrate box. Multiply this number by 1,000 to get your upload speed in kilobits per second (Kb/s as reflected in the software). To find your upload throughput, do an upload test here, which will give you your upload speed in megabits per second.
