Bug Report Sound becomes choppy after about an hour.

Hi,

We've been looking at replacing XSplit with OBS Studio, mainly because of the flexibility of being able to start streaming / recording through the command line. Our setup contains multiple PC's all equipped with an AverMedia Live Gamer Portable (hopefully soon to be replaced with an AverMedia Live Gamer Extreme) and a Logitech C930 webcam.

Initially when we start streaming / recording, everything looks and sounds fine. After a while though (it usually takes about an hour), all sound becomes very choppy and unusable. The only way to get it back working again, is restarting OBS. Here you'll find a log of our last attempt. At the moment the sounds get scrambled, we noticed this gets written to the logs:

Max audio buffering reached!

We tried using both the native support for the AverMedia card combined with a cable connected to the soundcard for audio, as well as using AverMedia's own Stream Engine, which we can use as a virtual DirectShow device. Neither of them works well. Log is uploaded to https://gist.github.com/anonymous/3285bc00669fc867b5c12542acb15700

Let me know if you need any more information!

Cheers,
Dieter

Update: Changed the capture card to Live Gamer Extreme, sadly this didn't solve our problem.

I think I've tested every setting OBS Studio has to offer at this time, but can't seem to figure this one out :/ Help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
Dieter
