Hello everybody and first of all happy new year.

I learnt recently that it's possible to set up an audio delay directly on a digital cinema server. I though that you can do that only in the processor... Obviously, i was wrong.

My question is simple : where do you set up the audio delay on a doremi server ? Does the same function exist on Dolby server ? I never saw it...

Thanks for your help,

Best,

Frederick.

With current Doremi software, the delay is in "audio settings" or similar on the control panel window.
With earlier software versions, you change an environment variable. I would suggest upgrading the software if yours is out of date.

OK, thank you Dave.

I have one question more. Doremi recommands a setting of 80 ms. With this setting, is it necessary or not to define a audio delay on the audio processor ?

Many Thanks.

You should use a sync test pattern to set the proper delay. Wether you set it in the server or in the sound processor is up to you. If the sound processor has it's own global delay option, I would recommend to leave the Doremi setting on it's default value and do the adjustment in in the cinema processor.
