Audio / Video not in sync in FiOS tv

Hi everyone,
New to this forum and FiOS. I have noticed that fios is sending audio before the video reaches the tv. I have tested this extensively in my house with both the QIP 2500-3 on an old standard def cathode-ray tube and the QIP 6200-2 HD on both an old CRT SD set and a HDTV. It is worse in the HDTV signal inherently. It is compounded by the fact that on hdtv it is easier to see the lips move and that hdtvs have a slight inherent lag (not really noticeable normally but this is adding to the problem) in video display due to extra processing. I have tried hdmi running to an onkyo receiver then hdmi from receiver to the hdtv and also hdmi straight from the box to the tv then optical to the receiver. Either way presents the same error. My receiver has some built in audio delay functionality that allows me to slow down the video signal up to 100ms later than it was in the source; this has narrowed the lipsync error but the voices are still clearly ahead of the lips moving on screen.
It is very dissapointing that there is such a large a/v sync error in my FiOS tv signal. It is paticularly bad since it is not natural to hear voices before they are spoken; thus this is actually causing me a slight bit of nausea everytime i try to watch hdtv. I was wondering if anyone has noticed this issue, or if you have not, if you can take a close look and see if you notice this same.
I have also tried to see if there are audio delay options in the STB's in the diagnostic menus. I have not found any.

I have been having the same issues with audio sync since the IMG upgrade? to 1.6
Much worse on HD than SD. Have reset boxes numerous times. Also went from HDMI on one set to component but no visible improvement.
Have post this problem on various boards.

Audio/video not in sync

Hi all,
I've been having some difficulties with audio and video being in sync with FCP 7. The video is from a blackberry playbook and I have converted it to prores 422LT using MPEG Streamclip. It plays fine on quicktime, but once it goes into fcp, the audio is delayed by half a second. I've also used compressor to convert it with the same result. Here are the specs for the converted file.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi
Just thinking
Can it be so that Your - Start-Up (boot) (Mac OS) Hard Disk is going full - I never go less than 25GB free space on this one. Others do not count.
Can it be so that Your FC pref. file got corrupted - trash it (when FC is not up and running) and see if it plays OK now
Yours Bengt W

Audio/Video not in sync when exported!

So after exporting a 1.5 hour movie to QuickTime, I played it back and found that the audio and video on a couple of chapters are completely off. I then checked the sequence on FCP but it's perfectly synced. What's going on here? I put Setting as Current Settings, Include Audio and Video, and for Markers I put Chapter Markers.
Should I export directly to Compressor then? But how could I keep my Chapter Markers if I do?

I really don't know for sure.
Just make sure the sequence is fully rendered (alt-R, with all render options checked in the Sequence > Render All menu) and audio mixed down (alt-cmd-R) before exporting.
Let us know if this makes any difference.

After ATV2 5.0 update Netflix audio is not in sync with video

As the title says, on ATV2 after the 5.0 update, Netflix audio is not in sync with video.
Anyone else seeing this?

Videos shot directly from my MacBook

Audio and video not in sync. went back to previously finished projects and they too are not in sync. What could be the problem?

Um ... some useful data?
OS/CPU/RAM/GPU/vRAM ... version of PrPro ... and other programs or plugi-ins/3rd-party apps involved ... footage type/codec/wrapper ... such things would be very useful.

Audio/video out of sync (audio delay) with PowerBeats wireless earphones.

I am having a problem with audio/video sync between my PowerBeats Wireless earphones with my MacPro and MacBookPro. I have tried pairing, playing the video, pausing the video, turning off the PowerBeats, tuning the PowerBeats on, then starting the video playback again. I have the same audio delay so this not working for me. Anyone have an update as to how to fix this audio/video sync problem?

I am playing MPEG-4 movie files. I did open MPlayerX from my dock, then pulled down File to select Open which then did show the folder where these movie files are stored. Then I was able to select a movie file, open it, and use "Decrease Audio Delay" to closely sync the audio with the video. I say closely because it is not perfect. Rather than stepping each increase or decrease in one tenth of a second, perhaps a finer adjustment would have been in milliseconds. This is the adjustment that I have with my AVR to sync the audio with the video, so I know this is a possible increment adjustment. The perfect adjustment was in between -0.4 and -0.5 second,however, this was not possible in one tenth second adjustments. The closest adjustment was with -0.4 second rather than with -0.5 second. So, adjustments in milliseconds could have been very near a perfect sync. Perhaps later versions of MPlayer will offer the adjustment selection in milliseconds. Nevertheless, this is working much, much better than before. Thank you so much. I have spent most of this day researching this problem and you have come up with by far the best solution. This problem goes all the way back to 2010 and possibly beyond for Apple products. There are hundreds of reports documenting out of sync audio/video issues with no solution that works as well as MPlayerX. Even the Beats support staff have no idea of how to resolve the audio/video out of sync.

Audio Skimming not in sync with actual Audio

Hi Guys,
Since about a week or so, my Audio Skimming seems a little off. When turned on, and actually skimming, it let's me hear something that's at least 4 seconds off. I have no idea how to fix this, so all help is needed
Thank you so much,

Buffering pauses and audio/video out of sync, single RTMP stream w/ simple embed

Hello,
I am running Flash Media Server on my dedicated CentOS host, and finally connected a single RTMP stream fine and am able to embed and play back the stream, but I am getting constant buffering pauses (approx every 5 secs) and audio/video out of sync by at least 5 seconds. My CPU with Flash Live Encoder is a powerhorse, never over 25% processor or ram usage while streaming, and my upload internet speed is averaging 6-8 mbps which should be more than adequate. I fear the issue is server side, however port 1935 is open and in use, not firewalled on CPU nor the host.
Any suggestions would be great.

IMovie Problems: Photo import and audio-video out of sync.

Photo import problem:
Some times, I have problems importing photos onto my new project, the photos will appear to be that just one same photo when played. It does not transit to the other photos following the first, it's just stuck on the first. Is this just an issue with iMovie '11? Are there any other ways to resolve this problem?
Audio-video out of sync:
I've checked some other discussions but I'd like to raise this issue again for APPLE. There are problems exporting my 7-minute film - the video and audio go completely out of sync no matter what format I export it to. There are not a lot of clips used. I'm now trying the method to detach the audio files from the video, hopefully it works.
These issues are bothering me, in addition to a failed firmware update on Mac OSX 10.7.2 a few weeks ago. I couldn't open my computer and I had to go to the Genius Bar to have them help me backup my files on my computer and reinstall the whole system again. Anyways, any help to the above iMovie issues are greatly appreciated. Just wish that Apple will address these current issues and not just focus on improving their products with awesome features ._.

While watching a tv show in itunes the audio is not in sync with the character mouth movement

while watching a tv show in itunes the audio is not in sync with the character mouth movement

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I believe the default transfer option for TV Shows is to transfer all unplayed TV Shows. If you've already played them, this may be the reason they are not transferring any longer. Double check the preferences:
1) Connect your iPod to the computer and select it when it appears in iTunes under source (on the left).
2) Click the TV Shows tab
3) Make sure it is set to transfer all TV Shows, not just unplayed ones.
4) Click Apply/Ok

Audio and Video not in Sync (Decklink a/v)

Hello. No matter what I do, Soundtrack Pro's audio and video are not in sync. Audio always comes a slight bit later which makes working in STP really hard. I run STP with a Decklink Extreme, for both audio and video. Any tips?

well i had the same post. kinda. but yeah it is totally limited as a film scoring app, who would have thought. there isn't any way to offset the sync.
Logic would be your best bet, or Pro Tools with DV kit.

ITunes movie playback, audio and video not in sync after upgrade to Mountain Lion

After upgrading to Mountain Lion I have problems with iTunes movie playback, and the audio/video at times stalls/delays, or skips a few seconds, or even gets out of sync. I feared this problem was isolated to my machine until I saw an article online: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57489874-263/sound-stuttering-after-mountai n-lion-installation/. I have 2011 iMac 27" with 16G RAM and am running the latest iTunes and Mac OS X software, and shutting down extra programs doesn't help. Please let me know of any solution.

I also have this problem, and some videos will no longer play in iTunes.
I get a message that this video is not compatible with this version of iTunes. I have to open the video in Quicktime to watch it.
Unacceptable! This hardware and software is too expensive to have these performance issues.

5G iPod Audio and Video not in Sync

I bought an iPod 30 GB a couple of days before. I was trying to download a movie to it which is in MP4 format. The original movie was in AVI format and I used Videora iPod converter to convert AVI -> MP4, but when I try to view the movie in my iPod the Audio and Video are not in Sync at al. The audio is way ahead of the video. Please someone let me know how to fix this problem. I turned off Equalizer and all other fancy settings in the iPod but it still didn't help.

some encoders have this problem occasionally. I've seen it very frequently in ffmpex when the source is avi. not sure what you're using, but so I'd suggest you try a different software. I'm getting very good results out of handbrake or 42.

Audio/video not syncing on a PC with i-tunes movies.

Recently started having a problem with the audio and video of my itunes movies on my PC. Had no problem for the longest time, years. I get up to 3 seconds gap, video ahead of audio on every movie I play. If I pause for a few seconds, the audio/video sync but shortly after, start to separate again. I reinstalled i-tunes, reinstalled my movies one at a time from the cloud. If helpful, for some unknown reason, all my movies recently were deleted from the hard drive memory but were still available from the cloud. Don't seem to have the issue when playing movies on my i-touch. Audio on the computer while playing a movie seems to have pops or quick gaps when the a/v is drifting apart. These are memory resident movies not played from cloud storage.

Hey Pedsrndad,
