Hi

i have just had intalled a beovision 9 and a new Sky HD box and they are connected by HDMI and then Coax for the audio as HDMI does not give 5.1

I am having major issues with lip sync and its differant depending on the channel. i have played with the sky delay setting and it sort of works but its random..

Any ideas? Does anyone else have this issue?

No its purely that sky box does not send the 5.1 signal in HDMI they only send stereo so its not that HDMI does not do i know it does its just the cleaver people at sky dont use it for some reason..

I assume other people with vision 9 must have this issue, its fine with other things like my mac mini and DVB-t etc its just sky hd....

Its driving me mad and i have played with the delay setting on the sky box but i just cannot get it right.
