Sky sports too slow commentator 3 seconds in front of the action

Redz79 — Mon, 30 Dec 2024 12:04:03 GMT

It's really frustrating watching live sports not only am I 30seconds behind the action. The sound is also about 3 seconds in front of the action. Does anyone else have this trouble?

Are you watching in HD or UHD?

If the delay is not good for you.

Sky offers Live sync.

Yes, its ridiculous! You hear the commentator say the goal before you see it go in. The amount of adverts is also disgusting! How much profit is Murdoch making out of this. So poor!

Given Fox sold its remaining shares in Sky during the 2018 takeover, that would be none at all. As a European division of the Comcast Corporation, Sky Group itself no longer has individual shareholders or any involvement with the Murdoch family.

Hi TimmyBGood, with respect, your response is slightly pedantic and doesn't really address in the principle issues of poor sound and too many adverts.

My mistake on the Murdoch family is noted.

This sounds like the known lip sync / audio drift problem and you should keep an eye on that thread for a resolution when it comes.

There is always one, I have to watch it on a channel that's 30 seconds behind live tv so I don't have this problem. Which is a joke in itself, I've now got an upgrade on my BB which is going to fix the problem at no extra cost. Until the renewal price comes then I'm sure it will hurt.
