Some bluetooth audio systems have a very high delay. My car’s like 2 whole seconds. I use my android’s display to play movies for the kids when traveling and use the car’s audio system for sound, but the audio is very late and it’s annoying. There should be an option to delay the video in a customizable way so that the audio appears synced up. Separate audio/video controls would probably be overkill. A simple audio OR video delay slider that goes -/+ 5 seconds is probably all it takes! ---

That’s a very very good request. I’m having the same problem and thought several times about it but always forgot. :-X ---

Same here… a real issue with Bluetooth audio… the delay makes things unwatchable. ---

Bumping this for visibility. I would like to watch Plex on Android with Bluetooth headphones, but it isn’t possible with the 0.5-1s delay. VLC allows you to set a delay and remembers it for the specific bluetooth connection. It would be great if Plex did the same ---
