Bug : Twitch streams start stuttering and delaying when Minion Masters is running

[Noct]

Hi I have a pretty stable internet connection and can do multiple things while running a twitch stream in the background. Not sure why and how but Minion masters is definetly messing with my streams and everytime it is running after a few seconds the streams start stuttering and get really delayed.

What is the speed of this stable internet connection? Personally I have 80/80 and do multiple things while running MMasters without a problem, although I don't stream to twitch.

Idk the exact speed tbh. But I can do a lot of things and only when I have minion masters open in the background it starts stuttering. It's not even really a loading because the internet isn't able to follow up it is more like a weird stuttering delaying. It only happens at minion masters so either the game takes up a tons of internet or it is something else.
Ps: Im not talking about streaming myself I'm talking about watching streams :) Minion masters is the only game I ever played that is doing that.

Okay, well I did a few tests and I have two monitors right now. (both 1080P resolution)
i3 6100
16GB DDR4 2400MHz
240GB SSD Samsung 850 Evo
EVGA GTX 950 SC+
1st monitor had MMasters running at the arena screen in the background and Chrome open on top of MMasters, browsing while watching. Tested playing instead of browsing as well.
2nd monitor had youtube videos open.

I did see occasional stutter when playing MMasters but it happened so infrequently and such small stuttering that it didn't impact my experience with the video. I imagine with a stream this could easily be increased to be a larger delay.

edit:
Tested Twitch for about 20 minutes so far and whether playing or in the background I see no stutter whatsoever. The opposite I expected if this was the cause of stutters. Oh, and I still have the youtube video paused behind the twitch window. Going to test for an hour or so with MMasters in the background to see if I get any stutter.

So I tested it again. With both twitch and youtube and it definetly is not the internet. After being logged in about 15-20 seconds it starts causing the problem.

Twitch: It's not really a stutter it's more like a video becoming slowmotion and eventually stuttering within. When the video is running in slowmotion the audio is fine though only when it stutters the audio dissapears.

Youtube: Now with youtube it's a bit different. The slowmotion is not as hard as it is in twitch and the audio doesn't have any problems. Only the picture starts getting "slower" aka stutters a bit. Not as much as in a twitch stream video but it definetly is enough to make it not worth it having minion masters open and watching a video at the same time^^.

i7-2770k
7,90GB ram (others idk)
My browser is installed on a ssd while minion masters is running on a different platform which isn't a ssd)
Gtx 670 asus
Only got 1 Monitor.

Really not sure What's causing it task manager isn't showing any problems either on cpu or ram.

Comparison: I can run any other game like league of legends /overwatch / Last man standing.
and still have a stream open which doesn't cause this weird slowmotion. All games are on the same platform as minion masters is.(yeah I dont play much games just naming examples which are way more techexhausting than minion masters I think?^^)

Edit: (Forgot to mention that the youtube loading bar is loading fully which proofed to me it isn't the internet.)

Edit2: A bit of grammar :)

Edit3: As soon,literally the milisecond ,I quit minion masters everything works fluidly. I have 0 clue what might be causing it need more people to see if I'm really the only one?

Sounds like an internet speed problem to me. I could be wrong though.

It's not. Download is 16k. Upload idk but I get arround 15-24 ping in games. However I dont even need to know my internet speed as proof. Youtube loading bar was obvious enough. It was loading really fast like it allways does 10 seconds in and the video has allready loaded up 50% of the video but it's still going slow motion. Also if it was the internet how come Minion masters is taking up so much connection?It wouldn't make sense since no other game I have played did/does that.

Edit: With the bar I mean this grey thing that shows you how much of the video has been loaded and the grey bar is way ahead of the red one.
