DTS ES & Delayed Center Channel

[calli]

Moi,

When I try to play a DTS-ES DVD on my rotel rsx1056 the center speaker is delayed is this familiar to anybody and how do I solve this problem

what do you mean by delayed?

i assume you mean there is a lip sync issue between the voices in your center channel compared to the video? if so, you need to adjust the delay until you get the voices matched up properly with the video.

if you mean the center channel is delayed compared to all the other channels then I would have to guess you need to adjust the distances appropriately in your speaker settings.

hope this helps!

Thanks for your quick reply,

I meant that compared to the other channels the center is delayed but in normel DTS or DD5.1 I don't have that problem

[ajpoe]

that's strange that it would only be in one channel on certain formats and not the others... i've never heard of that so hopefully some of the more experienced guys can give you some input on that one.

Just curious how, you are telling that it's delayed?

centerspeaker is about half a second later then fronts groupdelay is zero

[Kevin D]

I guess more specifically, what disc are you using and what are your methods for determining that the center is .5 seconds off from the fronts?

I'm not doubting you, but I'm not aware of anything on a DTS disc that would play, for certain, the same thing at the same time on the center and fronts for you to be able to compare..

Thanks,

Kevin D.

Hi fellow countryman,

Can you tell me on what dvd this problem occurs. I own a 1068, so lets see if I can reproduce this problem.

I have recently watched Seven on DTS-ES, and had no problem at all

HI Eelco

It was the newest DVD off Marco Borsato There are two discs one with DD5.1 and one with DTS ES. The foice off the artist is coming through center and frontspeakers and I can hear that the center speaker comes later. Maybe when I set center to large that the problem will be solved.
