OBS Decklink Output 1 sec delay

Hi,

I am using a Blackmagic Design Ultrastudio 3G Monitor on an M1 Macbook Air, OBS v30.2.3

The device is connected directly to my Macbook Air by Thunderbolt cable, and I have selected it in OBS under Tools Decklink Output.

For some reason the output is showing an approximately 1 second delay from the HDMI out on the Ultrastudio into my monitor. I have tested the same hardware, and setup from Davinci Resolve, and the timeline renders from the HDMI with close to no delay.

Can anyone explain or perhaps help remove/reduce this delay, as with the specific I have, this is not going to work for me.

Thanks,

Robert.

So from testing and experimenting, the delay appears to be 'baked in' to OBS and unrelated to frame rate etc. as I was planning to use this for a video conference setup, the delay makes it unsuitable.
