While we generally do not recommend doing so, it is possible to use Airfoil in conjunction with media player apps which offer a manual sync adjustment. Because of the audio delays inherent in transmitting audio, remote audio will be heard out of sync with local video, resulting in a sub-optimal viewing experience.
Audio delays and video playbackĪirfoil is not intended for use with local video playback. Bluetooth: A variable delay, depending on their connection, generally not exceeding two seconds.Īirfoil will delay all playback to match the highest delay required.
Local “Computer” output: Virtually no delay.When starting your audio streaming with Airfoil, the initial transmission delay will vary based on the exact devices you're streaming to. As a result, remote playback of audio streamed with Airfoil will be slightly delayed, so it can be heard in sync from all devices. I have not had a chance to try the latest build for more than about 30 minutes yet, so I can’t say if the problem is still there or nor.The audio protocols Airfoil uses to stream to devices feature inherent delays. Regarding my problems streaming directly from Roon to Airplay, I have described that in a separate post, but briefly, the stream drops out for several seconds at the time, and sometime never recovers, while the playback counter on Roon shows that music is still paying. So my question was, if I redirect Roon to Airplay endpoint through Airfoil, is there a loss of sound quality? Neither would help me with what I am trying to do. And Airserver turns your Mac into an Airplay endpoint, so you can stream from on iOS divide to your Mac. Airfoil speakers (which you referred to) turns your phone into an Airplay endpoint, so that Airfoil can stream sound from the Mac to the phone (and other Airplay endpoints). Airfoil redirects the sound from either the system output or an individual program to selected Airplay endpoints (individually or as a group). To use them with other programs I have an application called Airfoil. They all work fine with iTunes on my Mac, individually or as a group.
