picture on TV and the sound from the HTS should be
synchronised.
Automatic audio to video sync

sync is done automatically synchronised and always correct.
Audio sync delay
For some Home Theatre Systems you might need to adjust the
audio sync delay to synchronise 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 switch off Audio out delay on the TV.

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