I've tried AAC downmix, general AC3 delay (I don't think this should make any difference, but tried it anyway), general PCM delay, but nothing seems to make any difference. Playback of a recording with AAC has the audio leading the video by a significant gap. Playback of recordings with MP2 audio is fine.
The Technomate-Nano-SE M2 Plus is playing back from a server on the local network (same problem whether playing back via DreamPleax plugin or direct through autofs mapped drive).
The STB is connected directly to the TV via HDMI
