what does this have to do with VLC?

Most of the time the delay is caused by the device it self. However, you can adjust the cache buffer within VLC. I believe the default is 200 or 300 ms.

When you open the capture device there is an option in Advanced options called "Caching" the default is 300 ms. Change it!How might I do that?Most of the time the delay is caused by the device it self. However, you can adjust the cache buffer within VLC. I believe the default is 200 or 300 ms.

I believe there is also a Preferences option that can be saved if you can find a value that works for you.
