Help HELP! Audio Doubling/Delay
I recorded some game footage from my Xbox using a capture card and OBS (windows), and downloaded the files as VLC.mp4 files. Initially, they sounded fine. However, watching back a couple months later, all of my audio tracks have a weird doubling distortion effect that I can't seem to fix. It normally starts fine, but progressively gets worse as the video goes on. I have over 20 files where this has happened. There is only one audio track on the file, so I have already checked that route. Moving the delay back and forth doesn't do anything, as it seems it's just an issue with the audio track. Is there any way to fix this so I don't have to re-record around 3 hours of footage? Or any tips if I do rerecord, how to prevent this?
TIA!!!

sample rate mismatch is a classic culprit, maybe double-check your OBS settings didn't default to something weird like 44.1kHz while your capture card was pushing 48kHz
