So far, the z2 for me has been an awesome phone all around, but I do have a major nitpick about the handset, and was wondering if anyone else has this issue..
I have noticed in quite a few of the games that I play, that there is a noticeable delay in audio from what I am doing on screen, for example, I was trying to play cytus last night, however thee was almost a second delay between the music and the actual time you are meant to hit a note
Another example was when I was trying to play sonic cd, the game runs like a dream, however, the audio is about a second behind the gameplay, which sounds very weird when a lot if going on, onscreen..
I have found that some games work fine though, sonic 1 for example works fine, no delay at all..., the same with PSO2es, no delay at all...
Is this a software bug with the phone or is the an audio setting I need to change? Does anyone else have this issue?
Its apparently been knoticed as a device specific bug to do with a odd firmware reaction or at least that what i found googling stuff up

Mine has an audio sync problem when I play 4K movies recorded with the Z2. The sync problem is also present when I play the movies on my PC.
Greetings David
I have the delay problem when playing some games. Very annoying. Is there some sound processing that can be turned off to fix it?

Why htc titan had lag YouTube videos and games is laggy too?
How do you mean Lag in YT videos? Are you using cellular data or WiFi? Which games seem to be lagging for you? I can honestly say i've not experienced this.
Got no lag on my Titan at all, quite the opposite.
No issues of lag. If even so, WP7 is even more responsive and snappier than windows mobile on the HD2 and android gingerbread on the samsung note.
Hello,
i had buy a Titan that have also lag in Youtube.
It is so that the buffering is a lot faster than the movie play.
But the movie stock's... when the buffering is 100% the movie play without
problem to the end.
I have changed the Titan with another one, but the Problem is still there.
Now i have give the Titan in repair by HTC.
Edit: Behind a Hardreset no Problems but when install more Apps the Problems beginn...
I have testet: Hardreset no Problem in Youtube than install Navigon and the lag is there
I have testet: Hardreset no Problem in Youtube than install ca. 10 Apps and the lag is there
Sorry for my bad english
Maybe this needs to be reported to youtube so that they can update the app
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using XDA App
It is no Problem of App's... it's a Problem of Titan.
I have testet it with HTC-Youtube, Lazytube, etc. all have the lag.
When you play html5-videos with IE9 the lag is there
And IF i play sonic or star ninja lag is there
after update
I update today new htc ROM and still videos is laggy (
maybe it's a defective unit... better get a new one
i'm kinda worried bout this too
Haven't experienced any lag at all on Titan.
Iknow some guys, they own titan and they you tube lag too
I haven't experienced any lag at all on Titan either.
Maybe my phone is broken.i need replace and get new one.sorry my bad english
Don't return it yet. Turn off the srs sound enhancement. it's noted to cause lag in games and videos.

Yep, you only need to turn it off for audio though i believe. This should fix the lag.

I had pretty terrible lag during certain games like Sonic but reading another thread that was posted here, I disabled the SRS audio enhancement and it fixed the issue for the gaming. Maybe disabling the video for the Youtube would help out.
0 issues here.
Try turning off the sound enhancements in settings. the default is SRS, turn all of them off. Should fix some of the lag/stuttering.
I have the sonic issue as well but nothing else. Movies are fantastic and I think the video playback is second to none.
Hi,
I'm very satisfied with my z2 tablet.
But: While gaming Dead Trigger, GTA Vice City and Modern Combat 4 I experience an audio delay of approx. 0.5 - 0.7 seconds. Every other app including other games e.g. Asphalt 8 and videoplayback runs just fine without any audio delay.
Does anybody else encounter such a delay while gaming one of the abovementioned games?
thanks in advance

Yes, I can confirm it playing riptide! However I think this is a software problem which will most probably be fixed soon...
Gesendet von meinem SGP511 mit Tapatalk
I can confirm that with several emulators. e.g. ePSXe or SuperN64 (Mupen)
I'm also getting this, I noticed it when playing worms 2 and the new walking dead game. Has anyone heard of an upcoming fix?
I have the bug too...
I am also facing this issue when playing worms 2. Anyone else? It also seems to be present in Netflix according to some users at talk.Sonymobile.com forums.
Try disabling all sound improvements

I think I tried that, as in using default settings in the equaliser. Did you have problems aswell and it solved it for you.

On mine, there is an equalizer setting called off. I don't think equalizer does much harm though, no matter what setting. It is just that sound improvement are digital filters and in nature will always introduce some delay and processing overhead. Of course it should not cause such a noticeable delay however the more processing involved the more error sources. In order to locate an error, you need to minimize the variables. Therefore if disabling all sound modifications help, you can then start to enable them one by one an see if and when the problem reoccur and what causes it.
I have not experienced the problem, however I hardly have sound on anything (especially games, though I don't play much) unless the sound is what matters, because of a health issue making me very sound/noise sensitive.
With the latest update (.402) the audio delay has been reduced sharply, but is still there from what I can tell.
What are your experiences?

I have the bug in Worms 2 and it's off by some ms. First I uninstalled it and reinstalled which worked. When I tried today it was suffering from the bug again. I then tried to clear app data which worked - but only for one session! Closing the game and starting the game again made the bug come back. So I tried to wipe app data and restart, sound in sync again... But only for one session. Maybe someone smarter than me can tell me why this happens?
Reply from Sony
I got fed up with the audio delay (in games not so annoying, but for video much more irritating) and wrote Sony about it. It is only the Z2 tablet that has problem with these apps, the apps work fine on my other Android devices.
Sony's reply was that they don't care:
Sony Xperia Support said:
Dear Gnopps,
Thank you for contacting Sony Xperia Support.
We are sorry to hear about the problem you are experiencing with your Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet.
Does the audio delay occur in built in apps? Unfortunately we can not guarantee compatibility with third party apps and are unable to provide you support on them or a fix to your solution. We recommend you to contact the app developers for further information and support.
Kind Regards,
Sony Xperia Support, SE.

I havent fixed it yet, the only app I have problems with is Worms 2 and it works if I clear app cache. I have to that every time I want to play it though making progress almost impossible ;/.
Sad to hear that Sony doesnt care...
Sony support is really one of the WORST.
You only need to read what users experienced regarding the touchscreen problems (which is a far more serious problem than audio delay in games). Like the North Korean government, Sony says it doesn't know of any problems. The customer is the ass.
I love my Z2 Tablet, but this company just plain sucks.
I've lately faced a problem that keeps haunting me on a daily basis.
Whenever I startup a Youtube video from the app, or a Twitch stream or even open a video link with MX Player, I hear the audio normally but the picture is freezed or very low fps for the first 4-10 seconds. This literally happens almost every time when I start watching an online video. Usually when I start the video a few times again or skip to like 0:02 it starts normally. Sometimes this happens when I do a longer skip during the video as well.
It's very annoying and it definitely started happening after the OS updates. My OPX has been working brilliantly otherwise for 5 weeks now and the only customised thing in it is the Google Now launcher I've been using since day 2. My mobile internet is a constant 15/5 mbit 3G plan and this happens on a 10/10 mbit WiFi as well.
Anyone else facing similiar problems?
edit: This seems to happen only when YouTube/Twitch starts the video in HD. When I set YT's quality to 480p or lower and start the next video in that quality, the problems seems to go away. Naturally I expect this phone and this 3G internet to start online videos in HD.
make sure you've updated to oxygen os to V 2.1.3 , if you did, make sure the OPX RAM is not fully loaded by closing recent apps, or check the device storage to make sure it's not almost full, if problem still exist try to wipe cache partition through recovery cuz some phones from different careers comes with same problem in playing music or videos but after wiping cache all goes good, if it didn't work with u so it will be strange thing, i have problems with twitch but not the other apps, hope i helped u.
I have a Note 2 running wilsonq3 ROM cm12.1 Android 5.1.1
I have the same issue with all the cm12.1 and cm13 Roms where most games have a serious audio issue where the audio seems to play slow, crackles, and cuts out. Almost sounds like a buffer issue or sample mismatch like playing 48k audio at 44k.
Has anyone experienced this or know what the issue is? Only happens in games and most games do it but not all. Pretty much any cool game I want to play does it like VR games.
I'm thinking maybe replacing a system file like audio driver file would fix it? Any ideas?
does anyone got a flickering audio on the first play of messages in pocophone?
when i hit play on audio messages for the first time, it seams like the audio is sliced. It is very annoying. After the first play, the audio runs smooth.
And also the camera... when I took picures from whatsapp, the pocophone device shows a different image from what i focused. Like this example.
can anyone help me with those issues?

I had the same thing happening with my WhatsApp Messages. First time playing them on ear-speaker some of them were sliced. If you stop and restart them they are usually fine. Really weird bug.
