    I haven't seen anyone else raise this problem but
    I find that MGA9 is "laggy" for want of a better word

    Today I recorded the screen for a streamed video using ffmpeg, only to
    find the lip sync of the playback was appalling.\

    I have four desktops and I noticed that if a video is playing on one
    desktop and I switch to the grid view, the video becomes choppy and halting These action used to run flawlessly and smoothly with MGA8

    Something has changed and my hardware has not

    After further tests I am prepared to blame the streaming site, tentatively.

    Trying another TV site produces a proper lipsync download


    This site also one of those that claims an add blocker is being used
    when it's not so

    And also require that all cookies , history site settings etc be reset
    Only to find it still doesn't work. It really is infuriating
    And then the browser is totally lobotomized and need major reconfig.

    I thought I'd got around it by recording the screen but, not so.result
    is no lipsync: but only for this site

    I give up. I take a vicarious pleasure in the news of free to air TV struggling with the streaming services

    regards
