picture on TV and the sound from the HTS should be
synchronised. A mismatch can be visible in scenes with people
talking. When they finish sentences before their lips stop moving.
Automatic audio to video sync
With recent Philips Home Theatre Systems, the audio to video
sync is automatically synchronised and always correct.
Audio sync delay
Other Home Theatre Systems might need to adjust the audio
sync delay to synchronise the audio to video. On the HTS,
increase the delay value until there is a match between picture
and sound. A delay value of 180ms may be required. Read the
user manual of the HTS.
