Thought fuck it and removed the PS4 and plugged it into hdmi, found out what the hdmi-cec stuff meant in the series x menus, and now everything is working together!
Just need the new Xbox remote and my one remote solution is done I think?
Got some proper audio lag on my arc commected lg sn7cy atmos bar when connected to my oled b9. Does ot woth all apps and the series x. Did it on old lg tv too. Av sync adjustment does nothing?
Silly question, but are your cables all high speed? Just in case you are running an old HDMI 1.4 cable in the mix and you are getting a delay somewhere.
Also, in the Sound settings go into Additional and check:
eARC - On
DTV Audio Setting - auto
Digital sound out - try pass through if auto isn’t working
I switched to Auto after trying pass through and getting some issues on my Apple TV
Set sound output on TV to internal speaker > enabled Dolby Atmos > enabled AI Sound. (Did this as soon as I powered on the TV during intial setup, so I included the step here just in case it's part of the equation).
Set sound output to HDMI Arc > Output to Auto > Then made sure the sound output was BITSTREAM instead of PCM. (Noticable sync lag on XBOX One X and PC using Dolby Atmos content and youtube audio sync videos to confirm lag)
Set sound output on TV back to internal speaker, then disabled Atmos and AI sound.
Set sound back to HDMI ARC > Flipped output from Auto to Passthrough, to PCM, then back to Passthrough. Instantly the content synced and the issue was resolved. Confirmed Atmos was being played through my AVR on both XBOX One X and PC.
Ok i think the 2.1 cable (thanks Boris) has done the job of fixing the lag.
Playing dolby atmos netflix content (which was the worst) there seems to be a pretty decent match now. Maybe a milli milli second. Its so tiny im not even sure its real. Might be my brain looking for a fault.
More content needs to be tested to make sure thats fixed it. But it seems promising.
The lg forums are full of lag woes, so fingers crossed
Having to turn off the soundbar when I plug my headset in for party chat as there's a definite delay. Its ever so slight but my internal Former Drummer tempo machine can't take it. Have I a similar problem then? I just used the hdmi cable from the PS4, definitely more than a few years old.
No big hassle either way. I just don't like the dinky aoundbar remote, but on that note the Xbox media remote should arrive today and everything I need (Xbox, tv/soundbar volume) should work through that.
Thing is once delay is in the sound. Due to the TV processing slowly. There’s no way to get it back. What I don’t understand is why you can’t then add a delay to the image output to sync that way. Guessing it’s not that simple or someone would have offered it as a feature.
Yup theres still a delay on audio. You can feel it on the series x especially. Gun shots are registered after the shot by a fraction. Apparently a sharc arc box will sort it but thats £150 so i will see if i can live with it first. I mostly play xbox in my 7.1 atmos headphones anyway.
