Measuring Video Latency Beyond the Lab in Real-World Networked Performances

Measuring latency in networked performances is far from straightforward. Audio and video delays are shaped by many real-world factors, making most lab-based techniques fall short. In this post, I share practical strategies for measuring audio latency in complex and multi-location networked performances, in ways that reflect what performers actually experience.
