AV Sync Issue...TV the problem???

Hello All,

Last night I tried watching Anchorman on Blu-Ray. However, my A/V sync was off and I tried tweaking certain settings to help it out but to no avail. Also I notice it slightly with Gangs of NY Blu-Ray.

My Set-up: Samsung PN50C8000 TV, PS3 Slim Blu-Ray player, & Onkyo HT-7300 H.T.I.B. (receiver is Onkyo HT-R680). All Audio options on PS3 are set to bitstream.

To try and combat the sync issue I did the following:

Pause movie and try to let it catch back up,

Restart TV, PS3, Receiver multiple times

Turned the pS3 1080p/24 option from "On" to "Automatic"

Turn off Cinema Smooth Processing on TV

Disabled HDMI A/V Auto Sync on Receiver, Renabled once I figured that didnt make it work

Manually adjusting the delay time on receiver (goes in frequency of 10ms) from 0ms to 10ms to 20ms....the higher it got the worse it looked.

It seems as though I needed it to be set to -10ms if I had to describe how it was off.


Anyone have any similar experiences (preferably with a similar setup no biggy though if you have a different set up)? I feel like I did a bunch of things to offset this issue but it is still showing a difference. Anyways to make my Audio/Visual set up sync up better? Do you think this is my receiver taking those extra milliseconds to decode the audio from the PS3? The audio for this blu-ray is DTS Master HD.


Sorry for the long winded post but any help would be greatly appreciated. I posted this in Plasma Display section because I am unsure if my TV is what nees to be adjusted and figure you guys would have the best overall insight.

Thanks,

Thanks Acid Snow, I will try that out when I get home after work later on this evening, hopefully this will help get to the bottom of the issue.

So I adjusted my delay to 200ms and it made the lip sync on point, I found that weird since when I would test out the delay at 50ms or 120ms or 100ms it looked like crap, and yes I did pause the movie then hit play and waited 15 seconds for catch up on all delay phases. I wonder how/why this worked...
