GoPro -> MonaServer v2.723 -> OBS 
Getting a message after OBS connects which states: FlashStream.cpp[126] setBufferTime 3000ms

I'm unsure how to manipulate this value to lower it or increase it. I've tried from VLC to OBS but VLC connecting to the MonaServer displaying the same message. 

I did have a original 6 second delay with both setups of just OBS an VLC + OBS. I lowered the delay by 1 second by lowering the Network Buffering to 0MB in OBS. There are probably other ways to lower it down using OBS settings but I'm currently focused on the setBufferTime 3000ms. 

Is there a way to manipulate this value? A way around VLC or OBS that reduces the setBufferTime and if so is there a way to use that application to send it to OBS thus adding more steps but lowering the over all ms delay between Mona and OBS?

One conversation here titled 'RMTP setBufferTime 300ms to user defined value?' posted by Cote did list that he found a solution to it using RTMFP in a browser source within OBS that lowered the delay to just milliseconds. Currently I'm importing it to OBS via Media Source which required the input (rtmp://10.136.197.139:1935) and input format (rtmp). I understand this maybe more of a OBS question but is there a way to directly pull the RTMFP directly from Mona since I do see it in the 3rd line of Mona - Protocols.h[82] RTMFP server started on 0.0.0.0:1935 - I just don't understand how Cote got it using RTMFP via browser input in OBS. The only parameters that may help in it is the URL and custom CSS. I'm not very familar with protocols, code or even OBS and since the post was originally posted in 2017 I thought it best to create a new conversation.

I've also posted something similar to OBS Forums in a attempt to solve this issue. Most of the forums I've read have been dead ends. Anything helps and thanks in advance to whomever can!

I'll also update here if I find a solution out while still going through whatever info I can.

I have been searching Forever now to fix this issue . I am using gopro Cams set up to go over rtmp.. and this 3000ms is just haunting... how can there be so many pepole using this and also posting about it and never one thing found on how to fix it .. there must be a way >> is using another rtmp server maybe a better option that would not have this issue  ?

I've wondered the same.
