Is there a solution for the Spectrum Voice Sync issue?

I have noticed posts on Voice Sync (Lag) issues on the Spectrum App. I'm having the same issue with my Humax 210 set top box. When I tune Cable and my OTA antenna to the same channel No issue with OTA / Voice Lag on Cable. Everything has been turned off, unplugged and reset. The Lag varies from a few milliseconds up to 2 or 3 seconds.. Restarting helps for a short time.

Next step would be to set up a service call to check signal levels. If you need assistance with setting one up, please let us know.

Hi @JPD3RD,
Luckily I just caught your post. You can't specify a box make or model through shipping or a truck roll. You have to take what they have available. To really get what you want, you would have to go to a Spectrum Store. and see if they (in your case) have boxes with clocks.

PS. I also wanted to ask, you mentioned that "you understood this was a problem during the Super Bowl." Did you have the lip-sync problem during the game? Or did you talk to other people that did?

Hello and welcome to our community. I am sorry for the frustration regarding the Voice sync/lag issue via the app and cable box. What channel is this occurring on?

Hi Steph, All as far as I can tell. Currently about a 1 second delay on Fox Business and local channel CBS 5 via Spectrum. Also No sync issues with Netflix.

James, I will have a tech come out and test the signal strength. It might be next week before I can let you know.

A tech came out today 2/24/2023. He observed the issue and tested the signal strength. All tests were normal. I understand it was a huge issue during the Super bowl. Does anyone know of a real solution. This never was a problem in the Analog Days.

I am still having a Voice Delay problem using a Spectrum 200H Receiver. Sometimes up to 1 Second. I have tried all the "Known" solutions. A Spectrum Tech came out last week and all tested good. I do not see an audio delay when watching local channels on Antenna, or watching on https://watch.spectrum.net/livetv.0

Just curious why the Tech that came out could not have checked this out? It seems to be a well known issue with several solutions / no solutions here as well as on the rest of the World Wide Wasteland.. He had heard of the issue and checked with another Tech. Rumor is that it is an issue with the servers between the source and Spectrum. Fox News and Fox Business is the worst, I have also reported this to Fox.

Hey,
To follow up with James' suggestion on replacing the box,
I wonder if having an older box (With a clock on the front) would eliminate the audio out of sync behavior? If it does, than it's likely and issue with the new World Boxes. (which don't have a clock.) However, if a clock box does the same thing and does not stop the syncing problem, I agree with the tech that it would be a server issue.
@JPD3RD, do you live near a Spectrum store where you can get a box with a clock?

Thanks Satch, I live about 30 miles away. I may give them a call and update them on the issue, and see if they can ship me one.
