Question / Help Can replay buffer record X seconds after pushing hotkey?

So if I press my hotkey, my replay buffer saves the last 10 seconds. But I also want to save the next 5 seconds (behind the scenes: delay the saving by 5 sec and save the last 15 seconds). Due to the context of the games I'm recording, I can't do it manually. Is it possible with Open Broadcaster? Or maybe some plugin?
 
Not really, no. Just set the clip-capture for 15 seconds, and wait the extra 5 seconds yourself before hitting the button to save the clip. What's the specific reason behind not being able to remember to hit the button in five seconds? I honestly can't imagine a situation where this would apply.
 
In FPS-games, when you make a kill. You'll want to hit the button when you get the kill confirmed. I've tried delaying manually for a while, but it's too easy to forget when you're caught up in the game.
 
Sounds like a PEBCAK error, and just getting into the habit of remembering. Could always extend it for a few more seconds to give yourself more leeway to remember, and just edit it down later.
