I don't know if the Linux kernels used for audio-video consumer gear are used for audio and video processing, perhaps they are just used to provide menus etc., but since the end of the 90s I never experienced the good audio and video sync we had with German terrestrial analog television. All analog and digital satellite and digital terrestrial receivers I've seen didn't provide acceptable sync. Assumed at least some of those receiver should do the audio and video processing using Linux too, a smart solution to fix such issues, not by just providing fixed delays, but by detecting the exact drift and automatically fixing it, might be from interest for the consumer gear companies. Perhaps, they wouldn't care about a smart way to fix it, OTOH for colour correctness at least Germany cared, so we once upon a time got PAL. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
