stream
delay
Live stream with a safety net.
A native Windows broadcaster that adds a configurable delay to your live feed. Catch a wardrobe malfunction, a doorbell, a moderator's worst nightmare — before any of it goes out to your audience.
Built for streamers who can't afford a 7-second slip.
Tunable delay
Anywhere from 5 to 300 seconds. Adjust live without dropping the stream. Buffer in RAM, written when it has to be.
Native RTMP out
Direct connection to Twitch, YouTube, Kick, or any RTMP endpoint. No OBS, no proxy, no plugin chain.
Hardware encoding
NVIDIA NVENC, AMD AMF, and Intel QuickSync. CPU falls back to libx264 when none of those are available.
Single binary
One Windows executable. GStreamer bundled. No services, no installer surprises, no “run as administrator” theater.
Three steps from cold-open to live.
Pick your source
Webcam, capture card, NDI, or a screen region. Anything DirectShow or Media Foundation sees, StreamDelay can pull.
Set the buffer
A slider from 5s to 300s. The number is real seconds — frames, audio, captions all delayed together.
Stream
Paste your RTMP URL and stream key, hit GO. The output is delayed by exactly what you set.
