    Have a Dell Studio 1737...whenever I play a dvd or a downloaded Vid/Movie etc...have noticed there is a slight lag in audio, meaning that the audio is either a second behind or a bit behind. Example..if the video is a video of someone talking the persons mouth opens and the audible speech is delayed a little bit (I know that's a horrible example but don't know how to explain it!!) The audio is out of sync. This also happens when watching Youtube etc...I have klite codec installed. Anyway to sync up the audio? :confused:

    Codec problem
    nothing to do with hardware
    IF i was on your place i will uninstall all codes, and install K-lite code standard version.

    Why uninstall Klite? Already have it installed? Does the klite standard version differ from other klite configurations I may have installed?

    How would one go about uninstalling all codecs and starting from scratch? I've got a different problem, but one that I suspect may be due to codecs. Videos with grayscales don't seem to show enough variation in brightness. The gradient looks almost low res, or like a video card is set to fewer colors, but it's set to the highest setting.

    Anyway, do you guys think uninstalling all codecs and starting from scratch might help? Any instructions you can provide would be appreciated!

    I'm running Vista on a 1737. Is K-lite vista compatible?
    Does it include DVD decoding ? I run WinDVD 5 and don't want to mess that up.
