Would it be possible to add a setting for audio sync? Both negative and positive.  
Maybe this is not a problem most people have, but it would be nice. I do have this problem with my TV set up (eARC with a 5.2 sound system), the audio is always like a half second behind and have not been able to solve it. Some apps like Netflix work OK, but it is always present when I use Plex.

Lately I’ve been using Jellyfin since it has the option to use external players, and MX Player does have an audio sync feature, but I would much prefer to use Plex, and the only thing missing for me is the audio sync option.

Unless I’m missing some unique aspect of your suggestion I’ll close this thread as a duplicate.
