Abstract

A system is provided for measuring delay between audio and video signals. The system includes a transmission device for embedding a video timestamp to a video signal based on at least one remote timestamp generated by a first time server; and for embedding an audio timestamp to an audio signal based on the at least one remote timestamp generated by a first time server. Moreover, a delay processor determines an absolute delay and a relative delay between the audio and video signals by comparing each of the extracted video timestamp and the extracted audio timestamp with a local timestamp generated by the second time server. A synchronization signal is generated based on the measured absolute and relative delays; and used to synchronize the audio signal with the video signal to generate a media playout signal.
