[Feature/"Bug"] Noticable audio delay compared to native players #204

I have noticed that there is a noticable audio delay with your player compared to other native players.

Do you know why that could be? Or if you could do anything about it?

I just a/b tested with bluetooth (bose qc 35 II) and cabled headphones and when using bluetooth headphones the audio delay adds to the bluetooth delay itself to a point where it gets very irritating following vidoes where people talk.

Ive measure it with an av sync test to be around 150-200ms delay from the player itself.

Do you think there is anything you could do about that? Ive found an old chrome extension that hasnt been developed for 10 years that tried conquering this issue by implementing a video delay into chromes subsystems similar to a feature in MPC (media player classic) that allows +/- delays for audio.

I dont know anything about coding but is that something that would be feasable to integrate?

The audio delay depends on your computer hardware. FastStream itself cannot set it. Nevertheless, I refactored the audio code just in case, so that it is faster on older hardware.

Added a video delay option
