Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Audio/video lip-sync comparison over Bluetooth. No zero-latency or gaming response promise.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Sound and picture are out of sync.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at check-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
check-0
Is the problem picture/sound alignment during Bluetooth video?
Microphone delay or left/right earbud desynchronisation is a different symptom.
Look for: Confirm the stated observation; do not infer an unavailable detail.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Open the product’s audio/video setting
