Not seen any mention in these hallowed walls.


Visited the son in Sheffield Wednesday & Thursday. Saw a strange fault
where the sound would suddenly go way out of lip sync on HD channels.
Sometimes many seconds. I saw it on his new Sharp Freeview HD telly,
but he says it happens on another one in the bedroom and others have
mentioned seeing it to.

It can happen on any channel, we were watching both BBC 1 HD and BBC HD.
At first it seemed to coincide with opt breaks, but also happened on
BBC1 HD going from afternoon TV to CBBC. He doesn't think it happens on
SD channels, but he makes a point of watching HD mainly!

It can't be the TVs, and I noticed a thread (3rd June, 20011;
uk.tech.broadcast - Freeview HD lipsync) some while back where Glyn said
"In my experience anything that processes the MPEG transport stream has
the ability to screw-up the timing information carried in the service
Program Clock References (PCRs), component Presentation Time Stamps
(PTSs) & even possibly the video Decode Time Stamps (DTSs). At a Tx
station this could include the equipment that inserts the separately
delivered SI data or even just the conversion from 188 to 204 byte
packets to insert the Reed-Solomon error correction. Both of these
examples can involve shuffling the PID ordering around and adding delays
that will involve re-stamping the timing signals."

So as he gets Hull on BBC1 SD, and his aerial is horizontally polarised,
I'm assuming he's on Belmont.

Anyone else hear of this? Bill?

No.

I mean 'no I haven't heard about this'. I don't know why I was terse.

Dunno about hd, but a friend of mine said it seems to happen a lot on five
US recently, but ehen we all know how quality conscious they are over
there....

Ah, I was about to ask the same thing.

Lip sync seems fine on my telly EXCEPT for "The Jury" on ITV1 HD. I
can't be sure, but I think the sound is leading the picture.

Sorry, I mean I can't be sure from memory. When watching, it's very
obvious.

Interesting. In all cases reported by my son the sound is always way
behind the picture.

Without wishing to state the obvious, has your son tried unplugging
the TV from the wall for a few minutes and starting again? This seems
to be the recommended solution for all computer problems. I had sound
out of synchronisation (on SD, before HD) and this was cured by
starting again.

I've found in the past that changing channel and back again would cure
it.
