hi guys,

I have a media pc which is connected via hdmi to the tv. It's a fairly fast pc and more than adequate to handle hi-res videos. When I play a movie on a duplicate setup in 1080p, using various players, such as VLC, Media player classic or XBMC, it plays perfectly on the monitor, but it's audio is out of sync on the tv and also is somewhat stuttering as though it can't keep up.

I think it's something to do with the monitor and tv's refresh rates not matching, but don't know how best to set it up correctly so that the tv takes priority.

FYI, I have a:-


Sony Bravia 46" EX503 - 1080p @ 100Hz
HP Pavillion Monitor - 1920 x 1080 @ 60Hz
PC is running Windows 8 64Bit and the movies have been tried with VLC, Media player classic and XBMC


Could anyone please advise? Thank you
