Almost what I’m looking for. Trying to fix a Bluetooth headset that’s always slightly behind a video or Netflix, etc. Any idea how or if this can be done so it works all the time and not just one video at a time?
Thanks

Usually Bluetooth headset have time delays, depending on the quality and version of the Bluetooth. Please do check the time delay before the signal reaches the receiver.

What do I do if the sound delay varies throughout a video? I synced the sound perfectly for one scene, but when the scene changed, the audio was out of sync again! The same with the next scene. At this point I have to keep the audio delay controls up on the screen so I can tweak them for each scene.
Damned irritating.

It worked for me on my SG S7, but only on VLC; how can it be saved for standard video playing apps, other than VLC?
Editor says
You will have to use a video editing software to fix that permanently or if it was due to conversion, it could be fixed in Handbrake. Thanks

Your answer is useless. I do not want to fix sound delay by tuning ‘one by one’ all the movies I play with VLC, with tedious adjusting clicking maneuvers, but to get VLC play right away sound track in is proper place, AS ANY OTHER MEDIA PLAYER DO.
No more orthopedia answers, please

You only need to use this, if you have a video with audio and video out sync. Thank Lius
