<p>System for determining a time delay between a first and second different transmission path, whereby the first transmission path can be the path of a video signal and the second transmission path can be the path of a corresponding audio signal, the system comprising a sender and a receiver wherein said sender comprises the following functionalities: - a transmit function to transmit over a first transmission path a predetermined first signal, and a start function to start a timer at a first moment substantially simultaneously with the transmit function; - a wait function to wait for an acknowledgement of a reception of said second signal by said receiver, said acknowledgement being sent along a return transmission path that shows substantially no delay when compared to said time delay, -a stop function to stop upon reception of said acknowledgement, said timer at a second moment, - a calculation function to calculate said time delay as being a difference between said second moment and said first moment, - a storage function to store said time delay in a delay unit to delay a transmission of a second signal via said second transmission path and said receiver comprises the following functionalities: a receive function to receive said first signal, a check function to check whether said first signal equals a reference signal stored in a memory and if so, a send function to send said acknowledgement of said reception to said sender along said return transmission path.</p> |
