OBS Studio: How to Sync Audio and Video (OBS Studio Tutorial for Sync Offset) 

Hi Awall, this is a good starting point to sync.TIP: You might want to make a much longer recording where you clap your hands multiple times. If you than play the recording using VLC you can change the audio/video sync during playback with the 'J' and 'K'-keys. And, that's the benifit, it will display the delay in ms in the right hand corner. Once you have achieved sync, copy the value into OBS advanced audio properties.

Air freshener goes off at 1:29 Have a good day, and thank you for the video

You are the first person to explain why the offset is necessary. Thanks! Makes sense that the video takes longer to render than the audio now that you mentioned it. Also the clapping helped me make sure it was in sync.

honestly you are ther only youtuber that i have found that actually has helpful straight to the point videos that don't require me to download 3rd party. thank you!! ☻

Oh goodness.... I struggled with this most of last week with my new camera. Your adjustment worked right-on👍🏻👍🏻Thank you again!!!

This worked for me in less than 3 minutes after almost a whole day of figuring it out. Thank you so much!

Thank you for this "to-the-point" video. Just enough explanation -- and providing a starting point was super helpful! AWESOME!

Thank you so much! Been struggling with this for two months now. It's midnight, I'm stressed and this is the best thing to happen to me all day! Thank you again!

A whole day of head aches with no internet and as soon as I get there, this came up and boom! 2 minutes later, you fixed my woes! Liked and subbed! This is what RU-vid should be for 👍👍❤️ thanks a lot!!

220 ms was the perfect offset value, thanks a ton

I like how you explained the 'why' first and you did a good job (again).

Thanks Awall, Total appreciation..........!

at first I was gonna hate because I watched almost to the end to see that I already knew this method and have been trying for hours to get the numbers right. I tried 140 first time and it worked. I've been playing between 1-50 for at least an hour. Thank YOU!

Thank you so much, this helped. (For whom is interested: I think, the monitoring is not "not reliable", but it takes the signal before processing. So monitoring to a virtual cable and putting this virtual cable to Zoom won't have the delay effect for Zoom.)

I've looked into hundreds of videos on how to solve this issue... Finally found a tutorial that works! thanks Man! love from the Philippines!

Good Job.... Granular detail on ONE issue. Excellent.

MAN, I'VE STRUGGLED FOR A WEEK. Now this is the video that I wanted!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

This is a game changer. I just did a Let's Play and the audio was off, it was driving me nuts. I can't wait to try this at home.

This is the exact solution I have been searching for. Thank you!

i actually had the reverse of the issue, where the audio was a little behind the video. Just did the same thing but with the video and it worked. Thank you so much!!

This is so helpful! Thank you ~ I started streaming And it was bumming me out how out of sync my audio was 😭 this gives me hope

I as a gamer love this advice so much.....Will inform my friends of this because we all like recording but don't know what to do. Love the work

thanks, i have a camera facing my face, a mic, and also recording a video game.... i used the mic on the camera and those seemed synced fine, but the game play was going faster than my face cam. i am going to try and sync all 3 now, thank you.

Good stuff. Thumb and subscribed.

Thank you - I spent way too much time trying to fix this with smaller tweaks - 220 was just right.

220ms works on my Ubuntu 18.04 system. I just installed OBS today and was stuck on this. Thank you.

thank you so much, Iam using a generic webcam 1080p with intel 4th gen cpu so mine needs to set at 820ms for audio delay. now perfect

Appreciate this man, went through a few vids that had long and silly processes. Yours was the best. Keep it up!

Thank you. Perfect tutorial.

Perfect video! Solved my promise...Thanks

thank you so much 220 worked for me like a charm

Finally i have been trying to fix this problem for days! Thank you so much dude!

220ms just.. works for some reason. thanks for the help!

Thank you. It took me time to find the best ms... my webcam really messed it up with my separate audio. But, playing around with the ms delays as you showed, I finally made it. You are great. As usual.

Thank you, this was very helpful.

Awesome , you my friend = " OBS NINJA " , Thanks
