Hello, 1Hackers! I hope you all doing good and safe.  
I wanted to stream live on YouTube 24/7 using OBS from a VM Machine of Microsoft Azure.  
I’m not really sure about what VM Size would be suitable for streaming. I tried f4 and was getting skipped frames and dropped frames too. I’m not familiar with the Azure interface and regarding deploying a VM server. I tried various VM Sizes but, I was getting dropped frames and the video wasn’t uploading properly to the stream.

What VM Size/type would be suitable for live streaming on YouTube 24/7?
