Emby Theater - Voice Lag

[ryzilla 13]

Hi Guys

 

Ever since i installed ET, i had lag in voices in pretty much everything TV related. HD Blue-ray seem to be ok. An example on a normal 1.2gb TV rip the voice is around 1sec out. If i open the same file in MBC or VLC its fine.

 

Any ideas on where to start looking first?

 

Cheers

I seem to be having this issue too. I swapped over to MADVR and match refresh rate and it helps..but sometimes it's just out of sync, earlier builds of ET didn't seem to have this issue for me, just started happening in the last few weeks. When I use VLC no issues.

yeah seems to be. any ideas this a fresh os install

I had the same issue and stopped using MADVR.

in video settings there is a choice of three different renderers, try each one.

If you have a digital connection for audio (hdmi or spdif) then make sure you've set your audio to bitstream.

I get audio lag when I use MadVR with refresh rate switching or if I just set my TV to 24Hz with MadVR.  I don't get it at 60Hz on the monitor with MadVR but of course I get some annoying juddering issues.  If I bump the video prcesing on the TV to 240Hz I get no audio issues and no juddering so that's been my solution.  Your specific hardware and rendering settings will vary of course but the point is it can be a bit complex sometimes to shove 24FPS content through a computer and get good results at the end.

Thanks all i got it working by changing the following. My setup is HDMI from my server to the TV then TV via SPDIF to speakers

 

Set to EVR+

Disabled MadVR

and set sound to HDMI

 

and now all in sync

[Luke 42078]

Well done. Those settings sound pretty close to application default

[ryzilla 13]

yeah Luke not show how these got changed. One thing to note is i did a full uninstall ticked remove all traces but it kept that config there too. so until you manually re changed them it stayed.

We should just remove all settings and it will always just work.

I don't really have a problem with users making their own mess. It's when they make their own mess and assume it's an Emby problem is something we have to contend with.

[ryzilla 13]

I wasn't blaming Emby at all i assumed this was a community where you could come and ask these questions for help? One would assume that a full uninstall with a option "remove all traces" would remove these options. Sorry not as skilled as you guys in this area

I agree. I don't think you were blaming Emby for the issue. You had an issue and asked for help. Not to speak for Luke but it appears that he has been troubleshooting a lot of non-issues as of late. This leaves him less time to work on my real issues.
