LG TV - Audio and Video Out of Sync

  • Repair

At a Glance

If the video and audio are not syncing on particular channels

➔ If the video and audio do not sync only on a particular channel, it is highly likely that there is a problem with the broadcast signal of that channel.
Please contact your broadcast service provider first for assistance.

If the video and audio are not syncing on all channels

➔ Try using both the TV speaker and an additional external speaker. If the sound is out of sync, adjust the sync in [Match Screen and Sound].
Try delaying the TV's audio output to sync it with the external speaker.

Try This

➔ Setting in [2021 WebOS6.0] or later

Press the setting button on the TV remote and select [All Settings] → [Sound] → [Advanced Settings] → [Match Screen and Sound].

1. Turn on the TV and press the [Settings] button on your TV remote.
Select [All Settings] in the [Settings] menu.
