I know it seems like this question has been asked a dozen times before, but nobody seems to have the same capture card or solution to my problem. Basically, the stream starts great. I have a small window for my Logitech webcam, and my SA7160 capture card as the main event. As time goes on, however, the audio will gradually become more and more out of sync with what is happening on screen. This happens regardless of if I'm broadcasting live or just previewing the stream.
Example: Start streaming. I press a button, and the action and sound occurs simultaneously. After some time, I'll press a button and the action will occur, but the sound will be delayed. This effect gets worse over time.
A couple things that might be worth noting: First, is that this is only an issue with the game capture; the webcam audio/video is totally fine no matter what. Second, on other programs like StreamCatcher and Xsplit, this issue does not occur.
What is strange is that I thought I had fixed this a while ago. I was streaming Hyrule Warriors on it's release, and I found that lowering the resolution and FPS capture on my webcam actually seemed to resolve the problem. I played for a couple hours with no lag. I took a break for a month, and now as I try to play Okami using my PS3 the issue again rears it's ugly head. For both the Wii U and the PS3 I am using a set of component cables. If it helps, here is the log from the latest session (hope I did this right).
Please, I'm at the end of my rope. OBS is perfect, save for this one glaring issue I am having. Any help is much appreciated, and if you need further clarification on anything, just let me know. Thanks in advance!
