Good Day All,
Please could anyone advise if I can fix my NOW TV Sky Sports Live to be in sync? I’ve noticed an event may happen and I may see this on my phone like a goal in a football match but I don’t then see the actual event until two minutes later. I have a Samsung smart TV and use the Now TV app.
If anyone has any tips to get live sports more in sync, that would be great
Thank you,
Jack

@Anonymous User you won't get it in sync. All streams are behind terrestrial/satellite broadcasts as they have to be encoded before passing through a number of servers.
You can do a test using BBC 1 terrestrial on your TV and BBC 1 on iPayer on your phone. You'll see they're a minute or 2 apart.

Have you tried to clear the data and cache from the app?

You can also unplug your TV as well as your router for a few minutes.

Ah yes spot on bud. Lord knows what I had read, I must have been under the impression it was the audio out of sync, not the live delay that streaming encounters.
