Audio/Video Sync

Turns audio/video synchronization on and off. Turning the audio to video synchronization or “lip sync” off, sometimes eliminates stuttering video playback. This may however result in poor audio to video synchronization. Consult with a Visual Circuits representative if the problem continues.

Merge Playlists

The behavior of the “Merge Playlists” feature depends upon which mode you are in (Single Playlist Mode vs. Schedule Mode) with your Firefly.

If you are in “Single Playlist Mode”, the existing playlist is ignored, i.e., the incoming playlist is merged with the current playing one regardless of the playlist filename.
