Android TV - Youtube lip-sync is very bad?

Hi Risc0n

 

I have heard many reports of this the last couple of days.  Ive edited the subject title to a more generic one, as i would like to use this thread for this issue - hope you dont mind.

 

For anyone else experiencing this, please click the 'me too' button on the first post.  Also it might help with the following:

 

  • What is your TV model
  • What firmware version
  • Has this only occured since this last update
  • Have you done a factory reset?

 

Thanks

@Risc0n I tried the video in the link on my own iMac connected to internet via a 30Mb fiber connection: it has lipsync problem, so I'm not so sure what is the problem with your tv

Its not just my TV, it is either a Sony issue or Youtube. Try the one below.

I can assure there is on mine and others. So you must have some kind of magic setup!

Something is wrong, my model kdl-55w808c has this lipsync problem very often,

but never on computer, phone, tablet, other sony tv (kdl-50w805w), chromecast v2 using the same network.

I thought atleast youtube should work flawless on a android  tv...
