High latency on SRT connections

High latency on SRT connections

If you are experiencing high latency, first make sure that you are using correct Timecode Handling and change to another to see if this helps. There may be an issue with the NDI source not producing consistent NDI Time Codes.


High latency may also occur if there is high cpu usage or low cpu clock frequency.


A high performance computer is key for BirdDog Cloud to function properly.
