Logitech C922 latency

Hi

I have a lag/latency of about ~2sec within OBS (25.0.8).

Do you have an idea what the root cause could be?

Thx ARA

Similar issue here. I'm getting a lot of lag with mine too (1-2s), but only once the stream connects to the host platform, ie facebook or youtube. And only the logitech, not other sources running at the same time, ie everything is in sync except that cam. Latency starts as soon as FB / YT picks up the stream, I can see it happening in OBS. I don't understand how the latency can travel back upstream like this.

I have figured out that, in my case, the logitech cam latency starts when OBS reports more than 40% CPU load. This doesn't impact my other sources however, even running simultaneously. Not connecting to FB or YT, as I thought; those connections are just making the CPU work harder, and the logitech cam starts lagging immediately, as the CPU load rises. Same thing happens when I add certain process-intensive backgrounds, ie CPU load goes up even if not actually connected to online host, and latency begins. I can stream without latency if I hide those backgrounds. Strangely, this doesn't affect other cameras, just the logitech. I've turned off autofocus, auto white balance etc etc. Something fishy about the logitech. I wouldn't recommend it. But now that I've bought one I'm damn well gonna make it work ;)
