I am really struggling with this one I have just move my ZP120 into my TV room and connected the TV audio to line in on the amp. 

I am suffering a 2 second delay on audio and it’s pretty much unusable as it is.

I have consulted the forums and set audio to uncompressed. I have also set Audio Delay to 75ms from 2000ms but it just won’t stay that way. As I look at the S1 app on my phone I see the Audio Delay jump back to 2000ms. I can’t make it stay at 75ms.

HELP!

App is 11.2.3 build 57381090

Connect:amp is 11.2.3 build 57381090

Thx for the reply JT but I have now found a solution although I have no idea why.

The ZP120 is wired both in its old room and the new room. 

When I moved it back to the old room it let me set and keep 75ms Audio Delay.

When I again put it in the new room it would not and kept reverting to 2000ms.

In desperation I tried to disable wifi (I had tried just about everything else) but the controller wouldn’t let me saying that I was not connected to a LAN although the ethernet lights at the back of the unit were happily flashing away.

I set about trying to work out the difference between the old connection and the new. 

The old is connected directly to the router. The new goes via a Netgear switch. When I made the new connection directly to the router it all worked fine. 

The addition of the switch never seemed to affect the Connect in the way, just the Connect: Amp.

Alls well that ends well but I am still confused.
