1) Depending on your stream resolution this bars are normal. You could of course stretch the picture and get a result like this:

Or you take a look at the following picture:

The Twitch player uses 16:9 unless you resize your browser, on fullscreen the player will of course fit your whole screen if it can, or it will show black borders if you use a different aspect ratio.

If you need more Infos on what resolution is what kind of aspect ratio.

2) A delay between 3-10 seconds is pretty normal. You wont be able to go much lower. If you have a MUCH bigger delay, make sure you didnt activate any of the delay functions in OBS and report back!

If you set your resolution to a 16:9 resolution and fill the whole scene in OBS, you won't get black bars. If your own monitor is not 16:9, then you will get black bars on your own, but everyone else with 16:9 monitors will not get black bars.

No, not 16 pixels by 9 pixels...16:9 aspect ratio. Such as 1920x1080, 1600x900, 1280x720...
