Hi guys, what im trying to archive is putting a delay of many seconds (20-30 seconds) on a window capture source that record a web page, i really cant do anything if i dont add this delay is super important so if you have any idea it will be great, so as you know on window capture sourced obs dont let you select the audio/video filters and so the async delay wich is used to put a delay greater than 500 ms, 500 ms wich is the limit of the usual rendering delay filter that you can use on all kind of sources, but as you know to archive so many seconds of delay using this filter you are going to get a lot of performance problems (even a powerfull pc will freeze). now i dont care how i archive it but i really need a way to put 20 or better 30 seconds of delay to a web page i need to show on stream, so if you know any other way im all ears, thanks

Just checking, are you saying you want to create a live stream which will contain another stream of what a webpage showed 20 or 30 seconds ago?

imagine you are commenting a football match and you have on screen live statistics but the match you are watching is has 20 seconds of delay from the real time statistics on your screen so you and your audience get spoiled 20 seconds haead of everything that happens

I don't think OBS can do this. I think you would need to use OBS in conjunction with other software such as a video streaming server.

For example, in you football match example, assuming the real-time statistics are displayed on a stream on a web page, you would need to 1) record the the stream, 2) play it back through the streaming server with the 20 second delay.
