Well if you want to play a movie locally and have the sound routed via network to some other device AND STILL BE IN SYNC with the video, I don't see any way with any technique I know. Some advanced players allow you to delay the video, but still that means you would need the delay to be 100% predictable and 100% stable. No way IMHO. 2013/12/24 Axel Braun <axel.braun at gmx.de> > Hi, > > Am Dienstag, 24. Dezember 2013, 14:20:00 schrieb Daniel: > > Can you plese tell more about the use case?
