A lot of videos I'm playing through Shield seem to be out of sync by a tiny little bit especially in Kodi - enough to be mostly noticeable especially seeing lip movement when people talk. I have tried these same videos on other devices and they are correctly synced with the video. It's very annoying to see people talking and it's just a tiny bit out of sync - it's one of those things you don't really notice until you see and hear it then you can't help not noticing.

Even YouTube app in Shield appears to be a tiny little bit out of sync. I get sync issues with mkv files in Kodi and outside Kodi. Some files sync fine but most don't.

Is there a fix for this? I have tried messing with delaying/speeding up audio in the hdmi setting option of shield but this seems to make no difference even if I slide the bar all the way across - it affects the bouncing ball sound but nothing outside it. I have also tried delaying audio in the file when it plays by selecting the speaker icon and again this doesn't affect it. I tried adjusting these audio settings in Shield by tiny increments going left and right but no change.

This is driving me mad. There must be a fix surely? I have tried rebooting Shield and coming out of a hard reset on shield as I read it could be related to sleep mode but again this didn't help either.

It's definitely a Shield software/firmware issue as the same files and YouTube are correctly synced on my other devices.

Great device I've only owned it for a week but this has really soured my experience with it. It happens with most (not all) video I've played on Shield so far. Connected via HDMI.
