We are doing a series of Gaming events which are requried to have a 4.5 minute delay  before output, which we are using replay for.  We have a Primary and backup system with identical specs running the same project file .  We are experiencing a "Slip in time" on our back up and not on a primary machine.  Over a 5 hour event the instant replay is adding an additional 10 minutes delay from the start of the event.
We are not using the instant replay function for any other use, it's essentially set and forget.
The Instant replay is receiving a feed from Mix 2 and being output on Output 2 to a Decklink @ 1080p 59.94
Any ideas on how to solve this problem ?

Thanks for this ..any reasoning for that ..always saw the video delay as a way of adding few frames for sync, not to drop in minutes to a broadcast. Does the audio delay and the video delay stay in sync with each other if there set to the same delay?

Yes it will stay in sync. However the video delay input is limited to 120 sec. It is essentially a large buffer. https://www.vmix.com/hel...ndex.htm?VideoDelay.html
