Full Version: Persisting audio sync
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Hello All,

I am using XBMC on OS X and sending the audio to an Airplay speaker via Airfoil. This is working fine except, of course, there is a 2 second lag in the audio. I can fix this with by pressing "a" and adjusting the audio sync slider to +2000

However it would be great to save this value and have it always do this when XBMC starts. From my reading of the advancedsettings.xml reference wiki I have put in place the following advanced settings file :

Code:
<advancedsettings>
    <video>
        <latency>
            <delay>2000</delay>
        </latency>
    </video>
</advancedsettings>

and xbmc.log shows that it loads (it prints out this content). However it does not seem to have an effect; setting it to "-2000" does not fix it either. I know the sync is off by 2s so either plus or minus should fix it.

Any hints on how to do this?

Thanks!

Fred.
Go to the audio menu while playing a video, set the delay for the audio and then select the last option in the menu to use this setting for all videos (set as default for all videos).
Thanks! I think that will do it!
