anyone else notice that ugly betty has audio a full second behind video? commercials are ok. yeah, i know, i wouldn't be watching ugly betty normally either, but we're just watching it waiting for greys anatomy.

Yes, I'm seeing it to. Early on in the program the OTA transmission flipped a few times between HD and SD. When it settled on HD the audio was off. :mad:

It's absolutely horrible now during Grey's Anatomy. Unwatchable. That's why I'm on the PC. It might be over a second off now.

Really? I didn't think it was that bad during Grey's. I thought it was much worse during Ugly Betty, close to 2 seconds at times. Now the 6 Degrees broadcast looks normal. :confused:

Are you guys noticing this OTA or via your cable/sat. subscriber? I haven't noticed it during any of the primetime shows I've recorded OTA; however, during the HD broadcasts of their college football games, I've noticed it being out of sync by half a second or so (i.e., hear the football hit the receiver's hand, half a second later see it actually happen).

Grey's OTA was way off for me last night. At about 9:40 or so, they switched from HD to SD and it was back in sync. I was watching it delayed via my dvr. The dvr has never has an issue with audio/video synchronization so I'm assuming this was an issue at wsyx. Especially since it got back in sync with the switch to SD.

It was a problem from the source... out of sync on both an ota receiver and on my PC tuner... we need a trouble number for SYX

I noticed this on a recording I made this afternoon. At first I thought it was a problem with my DRV but recordings made from other sources played back fine.

I hope SYX finds the problem soon.

I hope SYX finds the problem soon.

find the problem? I don't think Sinclair employees could find their own asses with two hands, GPS coordinates, and an army of engineers holding flashlights.

i called them a couple times, and the second time they said they knew they had a problem, they were working on it, it affected ota, dish and directv, but not cable companies. they had it fixed last night for the grey's rerun. we should post a sticky of all the channel's phone numbers (you have to call the newscenters after 5pm) on a sticky post. i went to their website to get the number. to give credit where due, the people answering the phone were very nice this time, and they started working on it pretty quick and it was fixed fairly quick. a nice change from dealing with them in the past.

Go ahead Tim I'll sticky it. I think we used to have one on the old bord. I think it even had shaun's number.
