At the risk of drifting even more OT, why is digital TV about 2 secs
out of synch with analog?


Which digital platform are you watching?

DSAT has the 44,000 odd mile round trip up to the bird and back on top of
the delays inherent in the digital processing. Terrestial digital has high
levels of compression applied and the statistical multiplexing they all
take time to perform.
