Question / Help Help with streaming PS4

[LioMC]

Hi,
I have an issue with streaming PS4. Since I want to stream PC games AS WELL as PS4 games, I have to put in a microphone sync offset as well as a Facecam sync offset because I stream PS4 with an Elgato. But every time I want to stream PC games, I have to take the microphone sync offset off. Also, I like to stream PS4 and PC in the same broadcast so I would have to stop my stream and restart it to make sure there was no offset. Is there a way I can just make it so the microphone offset is for one scene? EDIT: https://gist.github.com/dd85d2ca63d8859691cd

Thanks!

In the future we'll be able to deal with this situation much better, I know what your issue is but it's something that will have to wait for the rewrite (which is still some time away). As a workaround, you could create a second settings profile (general settings) and use it for the [insert terrible USB 2.0 capture device with delay here] with delay offset, and then have no delay with your main setting profile.

Another workaround is you could probably run two separate copies of OBS in portable mode so you save two different sets of settings, and then use one with your elgato configuration, and then another with your PC configuration.

(Lesson to all: if you use a desktop PC, and want to capture a console, get an internal capture device, not a USB 2.0 capture device. USB 2.0 capture devices have delay, and are pointless to get for desktop PCs when internal cards are available and have no delay or compression artifacts.)
