Re: Latency on playing sounds to external bluetooth speaker

Solved.
I bought a slightely bigger (15,00€! ...chinese) bluetooth speaker and it reacts much faster.
Putting a 300 milliseconds of silence in front of every sound file, make it sound perfectly.
No, I was actually thinking that the player would start a sound of almost no time either at the beginning of a handler....
I will try this, that would not require me to change all my different sounds.

Will let you know if it works
Thanks

I get huge latency on the Homepod. On music playback, not really that noticeable. On video, unusable. Also playing a musical instrument is useless.
That would lend support that it is simply a bluetooth issue.
