Teams recording lag
NilsReichert An update...
I downloaded https://handbrake.fr/ and let it run through the video with pretty much the default settings, then took the output from that back into Avidemux and did the sync offset again and it was happy.
Interestingly the resultant output file still has an audio sync issue when played with Windows Media Player, however when the same file played with VLC the audio is now fine.
AdamOC I am glad you found a solution for that 'too short' issue, I never had that before. So about still different playbacks, I assume audio codec is some kind of normal mp3/AC3/AAC so I would assume that the video codec is the one being understood/interpreted different.
You can try to use avidemux directly (maybe with active encoding that 'too short' error will not happen anymore) and for video select the option with x264,audio Copy, the audio shift 1800, output format mp4 muxer. Saving takes longer because of video new encoding.
If this works, then just adjust Video output - configure - the rate control at the bottom, to adjust created filesize.
I assume a recode will assure that more keyframes are added, so hopefully different media players will not behave different anymore.
Also if you upload it to microsoft stream for viewing (teams on the left open 'steam' then upper right, open website, there you can upload videos), maybe it is not relevant if sync there anyways.

NilsReichert It seems this error only occurs with the MP4 Muxer. You can use the MKV Muxer and this error wont occur but you can still upload to Streams.
