+[output-buffers]
+; voctocore has a buffer on all video-outputs, that store video-frames for your
+; sink when it can't handle them all in real-time. so if your sink takes 2 seconds
+; to process a really hard to precess frame, voctomix needs to store 50 frames
+; for you, hoping that your sink will catch up soon.
+; if the sink doesn ot catch up in time, voctomix will drop it and remove it
+; from the output. it's your task to restart it in such a situation.
+; by default, voctomix will store up to 500 frames for your sink (20 seconds)
+; you might want to up that even more for your recording-sink, so that it never
+; gets disconnected. for this reason, the following configuration raises the
+; default limit for the mix_out sink to a whopping 10'000 frames (400 seconds)

+;cam2_mirror=500
+;grabber_mirror=500
