Default SPDIF delay question.

You know how it goes. You have to replace one thing, then nothing else
works quite right, so you end up replacing everything else....

I need to add a delay to my digital audio to sync it with the digital TV.
Any recommendations, that don't include listening to the TV speakers?
Are there AV amps with variable delay on the SPDIF (coax or optical)
inputs? Standalone boxes? Or just build one with a couple of ICs
such as http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/folder...t/tpa5052.html ?

Sorry, not an answer to your question, but I have the opposite - I need to
delay the video :-) I started thinking about if it was possible, but then
came to the conclusion even if I could manage to sync sound and pictures at
one point, it would probably still drift over time because there isn't a
master clock controlling the two.... thoughts anyone?

Are you trying to do something along the lines of listen to a radio
simulcast on TV?..

If so the TV sound is at a higher bit rate that the excuse for DAB
radio.

Also in the UK the sound and picture often don't marry up due to the
**** poor standards of broadcasting these days!..
