No sync with video = not much use to me!

Feedback Type:  Review

Contributed by: great.ish Wednesday, April 11 2007 @ 12:45 AM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

Does not sync with any video program.

Had my lappy all hooked up to the TV; had my Quicktime file. Had no sync. The audio is about 1.5 seconds behind, even with the "Total Synchronization" preference enabled.

Are you saying boo or boo-urns?

No sync with video = not much use to me! - Catservant

And this is Airfoil's fault how? It's unfair to give an app designed for audio a bad review just because it doesn't do something that it has no control over. If you must blame someone, blame the media player developers who don't design audio/video desynchronization into their apps, which is required to compensate for the Airport Express's audio prebuffering lag.

Try this:

Go to developer's web site.

Read through the single page - it is not that difficult.

When you reach the bottom of that page, read what is written there:

1. Due to delays inherent in the AirPort Express, Airfoil is not recommended for use in conjunction with video. See these Knowledge Base articles for more details: Latency and Video

VoilĂ , no need to blame Rogue Amoeba for something they already tried to tell their customers. Doh.

I can't get it to stream audio without delay in quicktime, but did with VLC player no problem after some adjustments. Let me know if you're still interested in my fix and I'll get you the details.
