Video delay option

[fishscene]

Greetings,

I ran into a video sync issue when using my Hauppauge HD PVR2 - namely the Hauppauge adds a 2-3 second delay to the video before it arrives in OBS to be encoded for streaming. If I'm capturing the game audio on the hauppauge, that of course is also delayed

Hauppauge:
Video - 2 second delay
Audio - 2 second delay
---Sync'd together


Everything else media:
Video - 0 second delay
Audio - (Delay can be changed)
---Can be sync'd together or manually sync audio to the delayed


What I'm wondering is if it would be worthwhile for a developer to include a delay option for video input sources (similar to audio delays) so that more "realtime" sources can be sync'd to delayed sources.

Thank you for taking the time to evaluate. Specifically, I'm requesting this for OBS Multiplatform, and I realize new features are difficult at this time, but I wanted to throw this in there so that it is on developer's minds. :)

So you want to delay DirectShow Video Devices?
Right click the Device in the Sources list > Filters > where it says Audio/Video Filters click the + > Video Delay (Async)
(This is for OBS MP.)

In OBS 1 you should be able to delay devices through the "Use Buffering" Option in the Properties of it.

I'll probably be able to check on this tomorrow evening. Usually I try to be more responsive, but I've been super busy lately. :( Thanks for responding, Gol D. Ace. :)
