Does it dependent on connection speed, or does it fully buffer before capturing? I find sometimes there’s some sections that will refuse to improve even if going back and replaying sometimes. Though I also wonder if sponsorblock can cut out sponsor segments from the finished product. Guessing it’s either/or?
