A/V delay for live censorship #12

Hi,

The live censorship is very useful feature in studio playout specially in news stations.

I would like to request you to add one more output for each player in which user can mute and blur the delayed output.

What large the delay should be? It may be relatively easy to add "delay" parameter to output, but only assuming the delayed frames are hold in RAM. If more than 10 seconds are required, it can be a problem. If smaller delay (counted in frames) is sufficient, I can add this feature. However, I think that the censorship should be done on studio output (PGM from video switcher), not on its inputs (as StudioTVPlayer produces). It should be better to have single signal to watch than many of them.
