audioversatz / audio offset / delay #1716

Closed pisabird closed 3 months ago

pisabird commented 3 months ago

Hello,

First of all, thank you so much for this very great work!

I have different devices. One of them has a delay of approx. 1 second. It would be great to implement "audioversatz / audi offset / delay" so that all speakers have the same timeline. Thank you Rolf

You didn't specify device types, but I will assume they are Airplay? If so you cannot specify a delay because it shouldn't be necessary. OwnTone communicates timing to them, and if that doesn't result in them being in sync I'm tempted to say one of them isn't working as it should.

I am using AirPlay and Chromecast. AirPlay has a delay of more than one second.

You can adjust Chromecast in the config file like this:

chromecast "YourSpeakerName"
{
  offset_ms = 1000
}

Note there is still a risk of drift.

is this also working for Version 28.6?

Yes
