hi, Forum--
I am managing live streaming for a baseball team (Serie A Baseball, Italy).
I have three IP cameras managed by OBS Studio (version 31.0.3, 64 bit).
When switching to one of the three cameras, I have a “time glitch” in the OBS output video:
the video of the “new” camera jumps back to a few seconds earlier, insterting about 5 frames “from the past”, and then returns to normal operation with the current video frames.
Any idea what could be the cause?
My first hypothesis is the following:
Has anyone in the forum experienced something similar?
Any ideas on how to “work around” this issue?
The only similar post I found in the forum is rather dated (August 2017)…

Thanks in advance for any help.

My first hypothesis is the following:
- The video from the IP cameras is encoded with temporal prediction (H264/AVC)
- The specific camera causing the issue keeps the AVC bistream in its RTP buffer
- When selecting that specific camera, anything present in the RTP buffer (from a few seconds earlier) is sent to output, until an Intra frame arrives from the IP camera, returning to normal operation.
