Sound before picture problem


The set-up:
Direct TV HD box with hdhi cable to tv and digital cable to processor.
When watching tv (audio and video) thru the hdmi to the tv the audio matches the picture. When watching video thru hdmi to tv but audio thru digital cable to Krell HTS 7.1 processor/amp/front speakers, the volume is fractions of a second ahead of the picture, as you can hear the words before the mouth opens type of effect that is VERY annoying. No idea how this is happening, so any help is appreciated.

Thanks

It is processor speed differences between thye krell and the dtv box. The Hdmi is delivering both as a simultanious
signal both A and V. When using the digital out to the Krell it has a different speed which sounds a bit slower than the HDMI signal. You may tru setting up the TV as a second DTV input using component video and use it when using the krell as the processor. That may be enough to make the difference. Hope that makes sense, I know what I am thinking but not sure if it is what I typed..
