Hey - I'm currently recording interviews through Skype, by pulling 2-4 participants in as NDI sources into OBS. I then take the recording and give it to someone to do post production. I'm struggling with constant audio sync issues, so I had a few questions for some experts who might be willing to help:
1. What do I choose for SYNC in NDI Source? Internal? Network? Source Timing? Whenever I switch to one of them it freezes their screen temporarily and then the sync becomes perfect for a few seconds until it becomes de-synced again.
2. Are these the best settings to record a 720p30 interview that lasts 15 - 45 minutes at a time? My CPU never jumps above 14% on OBS while recording, and averages like 9.5% throughout.
Encoder: NVIDIA NVENC H.264 (new)
Rescale Output: 1280x720
Rate Control: CBR
Bitrate: 2500 kbps
Keyframe Interval: 0
Preset: Quality
Profile: high
Look-ahead: off
Psycho visual tuning: on
GPU: 0
Max B-frames: 2
3. Is there a better way to be doing this entirely while utilizing skype? I was recommende NDI Studio Monitor by a friend, and when I pull the sources in the quality is great and the audio stays completely synced, but when I press record it keeps creating files non-stop like 30 .mov files after 8 minutes.
So I'm trying my best to figure this out with prior experience, and Im hoping someone can step in and fix my workflow for better output that doesnt involve in-depth audio syncing in post production.
Thank you so much in advance
