Hi roi,

try this, from Kodi forum:

3.7 Audio sync/delay issues

Is some or all of your audio out of sync with the video? Try these tips:

• Check for firmware updates for your specific Android device.
• If you have a delay that is consistent regardless of the file, you can manually adjust the delay:
  1. Open any video that has audio playing.
  2. Bring up the on-screen-display and select the audio options.
  3. Select Audio offset and then adjust the audio until the delay is corrected.
  4. Back in the OSD audio settings, scroll down and select Set as default for all videos.

 

Sam issue here, disappointed. Makes the videos unwatchable.
It is systemic, not just a single video format or from where it is played.
Unhappy here.

 

have you manually updated to latest build ? I have no sound issues.

 

@Testing
Sorry, but if it's "systemic" this will be easier to fix ... with point 4
" 4.Back in the OSD audio settings, scroll down and select Set as default for all videos."

And, by the way, this is a fix from Kodi forum, so maybe it's already known also from the "originator" of ZDMC.
Too many times now ZDMC is blamed, also when it should not be.

 

Dirty and dumb workaround. Go to zdmc userdata folder and create advancedsettings.xml with following content:

Code:

<advancedsettings>
<video>
<latency>
<delay>-250</delay>
  </latency>
</video>
</advancedsettings>

Of course, this not any solution, only workaround. End entire zidoo's fault, to be clear here.

They keep refusing any support here. Incredibly annoying!

 

were is this located so i can change it. sorry im a noob!

 

@Shocker -> use addon, like "Easy Advanced Settings" to create and modify this file

 

I could not add negative value to xml using add on. Any tips to do that?

 

Create and/or edit/save it directly using an app, like the text editor built into ESFile Manager. Just navigate to /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/

 

ok so i tried the easy advance settings and when i create i get an error so i cant proceed on.

 

If editing files directly on X6 is a pain, (or Easy Advanced Settings give problems or not work) you can do as me, i.e. create the file (or other, I'va also created a playercorefactory.xml to use MX Player PRO as an alternative player under Kodi/xdmc) on your PC, and then transfer it on X6 in the right place (i.e. the one reported by Harlan)
Of course you can use any android file manager, ES File Manager was a good one, now is blaotware, and I prefer the others completely free or open source available, there are a lot of them, and google is always your best friend.
Another way I use is to transfer file (and not only) between PC and my android devices is using MyPhoneManager, a free program for PC with an "agent" for android, able to do A LOT of useful things...
It can use USB (all functions available), WiFi and Bluetooth to connect.
Nice, isn't it?

P.S. maybe some operations on X6 needs root access, I'm not able to confirm because my devices are always rooted!
This is NOT a hint to root your device !!!

Any confirmation from other users?

 

ok thanx i will try these and report back. thanx for the info.

 

Use original material.
Always work

 

You mean "not pirated" ?
