Was the sonos connected to your beovision 6 or your beosound before?

I've been wondering whether P.Mute reduces audio latency as I'm planning on adding a projector to my V1 setup. I have my suspicions that it won't sadly. Does anybody have any ideas on how I could delay the video signal (split at source) so that the projector is synchronised with the slightly late audio coming from the V1?

Thanks, Jonathan

Hi Jonathon

I'm guessing that your source for the V1 and projector would likely be a Bluray player of some kind.  Usually there is a means within the setup of the Bluray player to adjust for lip synch.  

For example, I'm currently using a Sony Bluray player with my V1, connected by HDMI for picture and sound, but as I don't have any B&O speakers as yet, am running an RCA/SPDIF lead from the Bluray player for audio, back to my current ES Sony amp + passive speakers.

If I monitor the picture and sound from the V1, via the Bluray player over HDMI, everything is in synch, but with the V1 volume turned down and listening to the surround sound via the SPDIF connection from the Bluray player to the separate ES Sony amp, I get lip synch issues.

I've resolved these by adjusting the lip synch feature within the player - the amp also has a lip synch feature, but there is none on the V1 that I'm aware of.  However, the lip synch feature in the player is enough to resolve the issue, and my SPDIF lead is one made up for my previous setup, and is around 10 metres long.

I appreciate that your setup will be likely different to mine, but hope this is of some help.

BTW, how is the singing coming along?

I'm a high baritone, and a huge fan of Dietrich Fischer Dieskau and Lieder.... amongst others....  🙂

Hi John

the lip sync issue is similar to the latency I experience with my Sonos. The V1 sound processing adds a delay which causes lip sync for you, or echo-effects when I play my Sonos in party mode.

Lucky for you, you could manage it by tuning your player. However, this is not possible on my Sonos system.  Any suggestions how I can shorter/eliminate the latency on the V1 side? Since there is no video processing involved, I would expect that some of the audio settings have longer latency than others.

Any suggestions?

How did you connect your BeoLab 8000 to the V1? Did you use an active unbalance->balance converter?

I get a very small echo between my BV5 and the BC 6 which is masterlinked to it. There is obviously a slight difference in the processing times of each TV, so presumably even B&O cannot develop all it's TV's to process pictures and sound at precisely the same moment.

I've often wondered whether there is a simple signal delay piece of equipment that could be placed just upstream of an aerial input so that TV outputs could be precisely synchronised.

Best ask your B&O service department on if you can and if its appropriate to remove the 50ms delay in your setup. Masterlink has this timer set.

Hope that may help.
