Add an audio delay to separate Bluetooth speakers for S8/S8+? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

So I have an LG Z906 sound system and when I do the dual sync with my JBL Flip 2, the Flip is a few milliseconds behind. Is it possible, whether via a future software update or an app to somehow sync them? I don't know if they are processed different or what, but it basically makes the dual audio kind of useless for now. I haven't tried it with two of the same Bluetooth speakers.
Anyone have this issue, or have you used two of the same speaker and does it work well? Thanks.

I believe the intention of dual audio is share the content via headphones to listen to music or watch videos in a trip for example,not necessarily stereo bluetooth-speakers

Yeah, i was just hoping it could be used as a makeshift Sonos haha

Music skips and changes speed/pitch using Google Play Music through Bluetooth speaker

Hi guys. I am wondering if anyone else is having the same issue I am.
In no certain frequency, when I'm playing music through my Bose SoundLink Mini Bluetooth speaker from the Google Play Music app, it will sometimes skip and speed up/change pitch. It seems to happen on both WiFi and LTE. Haven't noticed it through plugged-in headphones.
I also noticed it when I had an AT&T Galaxy S4 through a Logitech Bluetooth stereo adapter and a Creative D100 Bluetooth speaker using the same app - Google Play Music.
I had both a Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 and never noticed it with either device.
All my devices have had the stock roms (non-rooted), and were always up to date. My Galaxy S5 is on Verizon. I haven't tried any music through the native music player app (such an mp3 or flac) but will update when I do.
Very annoying issue, especially for a musically sensitive person such as myself! I have sent multiple bug reports through the Google reporting process, and I guess I need to figure out how to send some to Samsung. Just wanted to see if anyone else had the same issues. Didn't see any other mentions of it on XDA. My apologies if there are similar posts on here and I didn't see them. Thanks!

I would root the device & keep the stock rom and install Viper4Android, It's the best sound app/mod that I have ever used and It will let you adjust all of your bluetooth sounds.

For me It's worth rooting just so I can use Viper4Android..
I think it's the Bose device. I have the same issue with the Bose SoundLink Mini. Completely different phone than you. Droid Turbo. Never happens with any other Bluetooth headphones or with my car. It's very annoying. Any slight interruption in the audio stream to the Bose, and the music's pitch goes up like a quarter step. No it doesn't happen on any other Bluetooth device I have nor does it do it on the phones speaker or plugged headphones.
Apparently many people are having this issue with Bose SoundLink and similar devices. https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=69397
I got a Bose Color SoundLink for Christmas, playing a station on TuneIn...after a little while there's a slight pause and the music starts up again at a faster speed! I was wondering if anyone else was hearing this and now I see its other Bose owners. Same thing happened with YouTube.
I have a rooted Note 3 running KitKat. Not upgrading to Lollipop.
Never happens if I use my LG BT earbuds or BT to my other little portable speakers.

I cannot get ANY of my WIRED headphones/earbuds to equalize

Interesting thing I noticed today and that is when playing music I cannot get any of my wired headphones/earbuds to equalize, i.e. , not noticing any difference no matter what settings, yet with ALL of my bluetooth earbuds there is no problem at all. Very strange as I would have expected the opposite. I am using Music Equalizer app but I really do not know if that is a factor ..
I just uninstalled the Music Volume Equalizer and just using the Rhapsody equalizer and I am having no problems with any of my wired earbuds now.. interesting..
There isn't any built in eq?

Make sure to get headphones with built-in volume control. There is no way to control volume on firetv.

Well apparently it's possible to do it via adb but it's well out of my league.

Bluetooth audio can lag for up to one second behind the actual content.
It seems to vary with different devices, but it definitely is an issue.
Sadly its one thats hard to rule out before you buy a headset - because people like what they bought. I just googled sennheiser's momentum 2 and latency - and you get mixed reports. Some people say aptx (which the firetv doesnt support) is causing the issue - some say it is solving it... Some say there is no issue at all...
So worst case scenario is, that you move through five different headphones and find, that the audio lag is still unbearable.
Thats why people usualy go for RF Headphones in that szenario. That said - RF hadphones need an audio jack and the Amazon Fire TV (/Stick) devices don't have any in their current iterations. So you would plug them into the Audio jack of your TV instead - if the TV has one.
Wirecutter has a new article on them - but I dont agree with the verdict.
h**p://thewirecutter.c*m/reviews/best-wireless-home-theater-headphones/
I like open headphones better than closed ones for pretty much any purpose - so I like the RS 120 II's better than the RS 160 or the RS 165. I havent tried the RS185s. I measured both the RS 120s and RS 160s (which I own) and can tell you that they show the same spike at 4Khz - so when the reviewers complained about some hiss on s sounds, they suddenly liked that on the RS160, I guess - I've never found it to be an issue at all for TV listening. In fact I like it that both of those headphones tend to heighten the mids a little. The RS120 has much less bass - but I actually prefer that as well in most situations, because your ears dont get tired listening to the headphons as soon. Long story short - I very much like the RS 120 IIs (not for music listening, but for watching TV).
If you go the bluetooth route - please report back - id be interested in some additional findings about the usual latencay. When I paired BT speakers with my Fire TV, sound always lagged considerably.

Found a bit more usable information. Curiously on a manufacturers website.
h**ps://sennheiserusa.happyfox.c*m/kb/article/108-why-is-there-an-audio-delay-when-using-a-bluetooth-dongle
The A2DP protocol adds a latency of 120ms - which is too much for watching TV. Certain BT devices and headphones thereby switch protocols for phone calls (they then use HFP which is a very low quality audio transmission protocol). I'd guess, that the Fire TV (Stick) will not do that.
So analog to those findings I am willing to believe that aptX would solve those issues, but none of the Fire TV devices supports it.
Hence - there will be lag if you don't go the RF route. The Fire TV (/Stick) will be using the A2DP codec.

edit 2: Turns out the issue also has an android specific angle:
h**p://www.androidpolice.c*m/2015/11/13/android-audio-latency-in-depth-its-getting-better-especially-with-the-nexus-5x-and-6p/
You might be able to live with a 50ms+ delay - or you might not... But 50ms+120ms (A2DP) will be a a bit much in the end... You can easily gage how much of a delay there is (or how it would sound like if there was ) by using the audio delay compensation settings in Kodi. But in the long term always using Kodi to compensate for it isn't ideal and very bothersome.
With my FTVS I use 66 Audio BTS+, Rocketfish RF-MAB2, and Motorola S305 headphones. None introduce any noticeable lag for me, but at least the first set has a quirk where if you get a weak connection and they stutter, they do begin to lag until I pause and resume the stream. Not a problem for me, it's usually fine.
The FTVS is finicky about pairing multiple devices. I often have to unpair my headphones and re-pair them if they've connected to another device in the meantime, or if another set of headphones has been connected to the FTVS.
I'd also recommend using a 5GHz wireless connection if possible so the 2.4GHz band is less congested for the BT stream.

2 Bluetooth speakers

Hey! Is it possible to connect to 2 Bluetooth speakers and play music in both at the same time? The s8 can do it and we have Bluetooth 5. I have heard that its software dependent, and that android O will support it. But I know XDA and that almost everything is possible
