1s delay #81

Closed aayla-secura closed 4 months ago

aayla-secura commented 4 months ago

Perhaps I’m mistaken in thinking there shouldn’t be much delay with this plugin’s output but I get about 1s or even slightly more, delay. I send track one to a TV plugged in via HDMI. There is no such delay using the built-in audio monitoring of OBS. Am I doing something wrong? Can I get this to work with less delay?

If you output tracks it will always have more delay than outputting a source. For the output it synchronizes all audio and video sources and mixes all the audio.

Ooh, I hadn't realised that the way I was meant to use this plugin is via source filters. I thought the track output is the only feature it had. That makes sense and used as a source filter works fine, thank you.

However I have one feature request: is it possible to implement the ability to show the name of the filter, rather than the name of the source, in the audio monitor panel? Currently I have added the Audio Monitor filter twice to the same source in order to make it output the sound to multiple devices. However in the audio monitor panel both filters are shown as the same name--the name of the source. So it's hard to know which one's going to which device and if I want to mute only one of them I'd have to go into the source filter settings.
