Question

How to Sync the Sonos Surround sound with tv display.

Is there a way to sync my Playbar, Sub Woofer and two Sonos 1's surround sound system with the video content? It seems to be just a tad off: like one-tenth of a second.

    I would love it if Sonos increased audio delay slider even more so we can enable some of the TV's image processing capabilities. I have my audio delay to the max and had to turn everything off in the TV.
    Use an external S/PDIF delay unit. You can also find such capability combined with a source selector switch, e.g. Felston.

    Hi,
    I'm also on the "video ahead of sound" team. Anyone has found a way to delay video on TV (Samsung Series 7)?

      I have a Samsung Series 6 and there is a sound delay option under the sound options. With me, video was ahead of sound, I adjusted the slider of the sound delay settings and it worked- I was able to match video and sound perfectly. I don't know if Samsung actually delays the video signal when using the sound delay option!

      I found a solution for only external HDMI sources to your TV, you'll need to search Audio Extractor on Amazon and it will work well. Audio goes to your Sonos before it the TV receives video. I have the J-Tech Digital 4K 60HZ HDMI Audio Extractor Converter. I hope this helps anyone with external HDMI devices with Audio Sync issues.
