Question / Help Offset gradual increase

[UKzBlaze]

Hi all

I have been messing around with the offset of my audio and webcam and when running a test recording before starting my stream have found that a 650ms offset for the audio and 600ms offset for the webcam seems almost perfect so i will hit stream and will stream for approximately 3-4 hours.

The start of the stream will remain perfectly in sync but by the end seems to be out quite a lot, I mean that the cam and audio are fine but they are way out with the gameplay by the end.

I have heard that this can be a problem and may not be fixable i just wondered if setting a bigger offset from the start would allow the audio and cam to fall in to place with the gameplay?

Is this also why an offset of 1500 is recmmended?

Here is a log file in case you need it https://gist.github.com/b5975f05e5a8040c6ed6

Please help

Thanks
Jeff

remove webcam and capture card from all scenes and rebuild them as global sources. that usually aids in keeping things in sync over time.

Second, your bitrate is pretty high for your resolution. I personally would lower to 2500 bitrate at most. Second set profile to main, not high for streaming to twitch.

Ok i will make these changes and try it out should i keep the offset the same or just trial and error it to get it right in the test recording again?

Thanks for your help

trail and error is best until you get it right. as long as those two are global sources, scene changes shouldn't throw off the sync anymore.
