I only have the one HDMI output on the Virgin box.


I take it that the 'Virgin media TV box' has no output phonos?

I'm not sure as I've not needed one myself, but you may be able to get a
box that passes though HDMI whilst extracting the audio. If as spdif, you
can then use a DAC. IIRC The CYP one I've seen also provides a sync delay.

In the "If I were you, I wouldn't start from here" class, I suspect I'd
have wanted a TV and/or box with spdif output(s). The TV then might delay
this for you to maintain lip-sync. Dunno, I still happily use ye olde CRT.

Slainte,
