 Pioneer Audio Sync
Pioneer DVD players and Village Roadshow DVDs are a potent combination, and frequently exhibit this fault, though the same player playing other DVDs will play them without a problem and conversely the same DVD played on another player will also play back without a problem.
Pioneer DVD players connected to later model Pioneer Dolby Digital processors, in particular the Pioneer VSX-D906S, appear to be less likely to suffer from the audio sync problem, no matter what the firmware revision of the player.
Pioneer has found that the problem is caused by Macrovision and can be fixed by an upgrade, however Pioneer does not and can not upgrade it.
