Audio Out delay
With a Home Theater System (HTS) connected to the TV, the
picture on the TV and the sound from the HTS should be
synchronized.
Automatic audio to video sync
With recent Philips Home Theater Systems, the audio to video
sync is done automatically.
Audio sync delay
For some Home Theater Systems you may need to adjust the
audio sync delay to synchronize the audio to the 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. With a delay value set up on
the HTS, you need to turn off Audio Out delay on the TV.

value in steps of 5ms. Maximum setting is -60ms. The Audio Out
delay setting should be turned on.
