HTPC Audio Lag/Sync Issues -- Audio After Video

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I am running an HTPC, but for some reason, there is an about 1 second lag on the audio. In other words, the audio is about 1 second after the video. I have tried updating the video drivers with no luck. Same with swapping out the TVs and the HDMI cord; no luck. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling codecs (tried Shark 007 and CCCP); didn't work.

I am running:
Windows 7 64-bit (SP1)
Intel i3-2100 @ 3.10
4 GB RAM
SSD
2nd Spinning HD for Data
ATI Radeon HD 3600
Windows Media Center
Ceton 4-tuner card
Shark 007 codecs

Videos are saved to a second (spinning) hard drive. But the problem occurs even when I run videos off the SSD boot drive.

The problem occurs whether I play through WMC or another video player (e.g., Hulu, Youtube). The HTPC is connected via an HDMI cord to a Sharp 60 in (LC-60e79u).

In my ATI settings, I can increase the audio lag, but not decrease it. About a month ago, I installed an SSD. On the prior set up (same hardware, just a regular HD), I was not having the issue. The SSD and a new install of Windows are the only things that have changed.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

The x64Components addon installs a 64bit Settings Application which controls playback in Media Center.
On the SWAP TAB of the 64bit app, try disabling the Microsoft Audio decoder.
