Timing of Looping Show Drifting Over Hours of Running
Posted: Thu Oct 26, 2023 6:41 pm
Hi,
I have ESA2 running with a SLESA U9. I used OBS Studio to record my screen to gather data on when each scene really activates. I am running a show that consists of one channel for 30min and then another channel for 30min. I have the scene set to loop continuously. Even though I have only two steps, and they are set to 30min, they actually seem to run for 1 hour 10 minutes instead of 1 hour as expected. Here are the times the second step of the program started:
Video time/Time date from windows desktop clock.
1:36:37 10:24 5:17pm
2:46:23 10/24 6:27pm
3:56:24 10/24 7:37pm
5:06:11 10/24 8:47pm
All are 1hour 10 minutes apart.
I am running the program from the editor. I click the play button and let it go, with it connected via USB.
Does the sequence running not use the local PC clock?
Any help in figuring out how to keep it in step with the local PC clock would be greatly appreciated.
