Causes for video lag?

[solleyman]

I've got a 61" InFocus DLP, a Series 2 TiVo, an Onkyo HT-S780 HT system, and an Onkyo DV-CP702 DVD player.

Here are the connections:
DVD Player - component vid to TV, digital coax audio to receiver
Tivo - S-video to TV (audio handled by optical output from TV to receiver)
OTA antenna for HD - coax to TV (audio same as above)
Analog cable - split, one into TiVo, one into TV (audio same as above)

Problem is that sometimes, the audio leads the video by about .5 seconds. I'm pretty sure I've noticed it on all sources, and I'm pretty sure all sources don't have the problem full time. Can't find any pattern, i.e. fine at power up, worse later, or anything like that.

I was hoping that maybe I had some connection wrong...?? Or is there some setting in the receiver that would fix this....??

Any ideas???

Much thanks.

Could you try a different player as a troubleshoot?
What is the rest of your hw?

A different DVD player?? I haven't tried that, but the problem happens with DVDs, as well as OTA HD, and thru the TiVo, and regular old cable...

That is all of my H/W (I think)...the TV, the TiVo, the receiver, the DVD player. What else do you want to know?

Sorry - thought you were hooking it up thro a computer.

Best bet is to post this in video forum.
Good luck.
