I don't know why when I uncomment this line:

// i2s_set_pin(I2S_NUM_1, &i2s_mic_pins);

getting fb frame takes much more time. (I don't have any error.)

OUTPUT:

Without i2s_set_pin:

16:59:56.940 -> Shot!!!
16:59:57.105 -> Shot!!!
16:59:57.271 -> Shot!!!
...

With i2s_set_pin:

17:00:34.303 -> Shot!!!
17:00:35.862 -> Shot!!!
...

I want the camera to take more frames per second even while recording audio because it should stream alongside the video.
