SMPlayer Support Forum

I don't know whether I'm going mad or whether it's my machine but I find that all the files I play are a tiny bit out of sync with the audio. Setting a delay of 100 always makes it look better. I'd like to set the delay at 100 as standard. I've gotten into the configuration file smplayer.ini. I see a place where "initial values" can be set for things like contrast/brightness etc. Here, I've tried to add "initial_audio_delay=100" but it does not work. Is there anything else I can try?

Go to preferences -> advanced -> mplayer/mpv and type this in the "options" field:
--audio-delay=0.1

(if you're using mplayer as multimedia engine, then type "-delay 0.1" instead)

Many thanks for the reply!
I've tried adding that option but no luck unfortunately. I do have other options in that field which work as expected, but maybe something there interferes with the new command option.
I'm using the MPV engine.

Those other options should not interfere with --audio-delay.
