Why is my sound not matching up to the voice on my television with my surround sound system?

Question

What needs to be done differently? I have a satellite feed and I have digital audio ran. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

This is a common problem  due to the time it takes video processing to work the video and sound can get out of sync. Sometimes simply changing the channel or turning off the satellite receiver can "reset" it. There are adjustments on some A/V receivers to allow the sound to be delayed to match the video but this is a more High end solution than many medium level receivers support.

I suggest the channel change or turn off approach. A serious (100-300 ms mismatch) is usually temporary, although some mismatch can be "normal" on some stations.
