someone else had reported a possible issue with sync and firmware, but we can't duplicate. All of our sync projects run fine on all releases we've tested. What firmware are you running? Can you update both units to 3.7.44, beta from the website, and test. Is the 3rd digit on both units the same, same rev?

As I said, we tested a number of combinations when someone suggested there was a firmware sync issue, and we can't find any.

You could try increasing the time between your pre and play. 100ms might not be enough time. Try increasing to 300ms or 500ms.

i was downgrading the firmware, with testing my 2 new hd210 units with my ext3 cards who were working with former units.
no luck, now i'm upgrading to 3.7.44 again.

i'll let you know asap

well, i've upgraded the units with the latet beta firmware. changed the value, and:

with a small mpg on both units, it's ok. sync is ok (same movie), BUT,
with an 1gig h264 mov the sync is not there.
what can i do?

i'll let y
