Second camera video delayed

1

Hi
New to multi-camera use, and enjoying using manycam but finding that my second camera’s video is delayed.

I’m using a powerful iMac i7 with 24Gb RAM, the built-in webcam as camera 1 and a USB action camera as the second camera.

There’s no perceptible delay from the built-in camera, but the actioncam’s video is delayed about half a second which seems a lot of latency.

Hey @RGCreative

Try different Hardware Acceleration options at ManyCam Settings -> General. Also try changing the Hardware Acceleration buffer size to Single buffer.

Also the following troubleshooting guides might appear useful:
