Sync problem #15

Open purpleman2k opened 10 years ago

purpleman2k commented 10 years ago

Hello,

TVs with "motion smoothing" or other pre-processing and some AV receivers introduce an input lag to the TV. In my case, there is a 100ms input lag from when the PC sends a picture to the screen until it is actually displayed. The A/V receiver is also set for 100ms delay so there won't be any sound sync problems.

However - there is no sync delay option in Prismatik. This means that it's very obvious that the lights change BEFORE the image (because they respond faster than the TV). So if a scene changes from green to blue, the lightpacks noticeably change too soon.

Could you please add an option to set a sync delay so there are X milliseconds between the time a color is captured to the time it is sent to the lightpacks?

Thanks!
