Hi,
I'm using OBS latest (30.2.3) on Windows 10 with i3 machine (32GB memory, 1TB SSD)

I've tried several devices to record from - Osmo pocket 3 (in 9:16, 1080p) and Pixel 6 (both devices are presented to the OS as UVC) and the audio comes from a USB audio. In terms of codecs - AAC using FFMPEG, and Quicksync H.264.

As soon I start to record, it freezes for 2-3 seconds and then it starts records normally, no audio/video sync issues after this "freeze".

I also tried to remove the entire video section (no camera in sources, just USB audio), disabling both audio and video (just pressing record) - same issue appears.

Is this a known issue? in terms of hardware, it's i3 CPU, but the video encoding is done in hardware, and disabling audio doesn't help at alll.

Any suggestions are welcome ;)

Answering to myself...

Well, it looks like the Intel GPU driver that was installed on the device (GIGABYTE GB-BSi3-1115G4) is very buggy

Solution to the problem: install the Intel GPU driver version 32.0 and above (tested on Windows 10 Pro)
