A tal proposito...riportiamo la notizia PER INTERO... :
Rumours of sync on sound (or lip sync) drifting on Pioneer models
particularly the 717, has been grossly exaggerated by reports throughout the
newsgroups and spread by dealers who cannot secure a good stock of these.
There have been problems with discs and their sound being out of sync
particularly on the 5.1 soundtrack. This has been more evident on region 2
discs, particularly discs like "ConAir", and "Lock, Stock". We have tried
these discs in other players in the range and other makes, and the results
are similar. We have received similar reports from an engineer who reported
problems with the new Sony S7700?, although our tests cannot reveal any such
problems. Incidentally, the same dealers who claim there is a "fault" on the
717 are probably selling the 515 (grey import), which incidentally shares
the same MPEG board albeit with the addition of a DNR pcb on the 717.....get
my point? There is a lot of confusion caused by people who do not understand
the root cause of the problem.
The problems of sync errors are usually the result of poor or Post-Dubbed
titles, and these errors are mostly evident on the analogue output. The
first thing for Pro-Logic users to check is that the Analogue Output is set
to MPEG/PCM. This applies to the 515 also. Owners using the Digital Output
with Dolby Digital 5.1 Amp/Decoders should not notice any problems unless
there is a fault or abnormal margin of error on a particular disc. Faults
were reported on the US DV-505 and 414 players also, but again only on
certain discs.
The DV-717 has received awards from all the Home Cinema specialist
magazines. The 717 has been intensively tested by top technical reviewers
and has undergone comparitive lab tests, passing these with good results. To
be honest, Pioneer have admitted that there is a 1.5 Audio Frame error which
is within specification, and would only be visibly noticable with poorly
mastered titles. Are Pioneer supposed to make their players compensate for
poor software? We at DVD LIBRARY, are a firm supporter of these excellent
players and can confirm that, although these are in short supply, we
normally have these in stock. - UK players that is........not grey import!.

Perchè non faccio il traduttore...e il riferimento al presunto problema del
717 è un link ad un sito INGLESE...per cui stai calmo.

Per correttezza, avevo messo il LINK, per non appesantire ulteriormente il
Newsgroup... Piu' in intero di cosi'!

Ho idea che non sia esattamente così semplice, ma non ho proprio
voglia di entrare ancora nell'argomento...

Al solito poi, e non è per la mia incolumità, non sceglierei mai un
player in base ad un elemento "etereo" come questo ( etereo =
riscontro statisticamente alquanto fortunoso, se come è vero funzione
di titolo,scena, sensibilità "visivo/acustica" personale, non parliamo
poi in caso di doppiaggio in italiano)
