Adjusting the AV sync setting

If a Bluetooth audio device is connected, there may be a delay between the picture and sound due to the properties of Bluetooth. You can adjust the delay between the picture and sound with the A/V sync setting.

  1. Press the (Quick Settings) button on the remote control, then select [Settings] — [Display & Sound] — [Audio output] — [A/V sync] — the desired option.

If the audio device is connected with an HDMI cable, the sound may be delayed due to the properties of the audio device. In that case, you can adjust the video and audio output timing with the A/V sync setting.

  1. Press the (Quick Settings) button on the remote control, and then select the following in order.
    [Settings] — [Display & Sound] — [Audio output] — [A/V sync] — the desired setting

Note

  • Depending on the connected Bluetooth audio device or connected HDMI device, the picture and sound may not match even when the [A/V sync] setting is set to [On] or [Auto].
  • To prevent the TV from displaying a black screen immediately after turning it on when a sound bar is connected wirelessly (Bluetooth), set the [A/V sync] setting to [On].
  • If [Picture mode] is set to one of the options below, the output timing of the picture and sound is not adjusted even when the [A/V sync] setting is set to [Auto].
    • [Game]
    • [Graphics]
    • [Photo]
    To adjust [A/V sync] when in any of these modes, select [On].
  • When a Bluetooth audio device is connected, the responsiveness of the TV while playing video games may feel slower due to the [A/V sync] setting adding a delay to the output timing of the picture. For games that are dependant on response time, we do not recommend you use a Bluetooth device and recommend that you use the TV speakers or a sound bar with a wired (HDMI cable/digital optical cable) connection instead.
