   If you are referring to lip-sync, much of the time it does not exist,
especially on news programmes. There are picture delays in many pieces of
video manipulation kit, while the sound often takes a different route, and
the audio delay should be adjusted to suit (subject to time and budget
constraints).
   A common problem is caused by intermediate centres deciding that they
would like a copy, so pass the video through a local video system before
they pass it on, perhaps adding up to 1/50 second (one picture) each time,
which is very obvious.
   The first public UK TV broadcast using a satellite link was made with a
repaired but untested audio data link, so the standby route via landline was
substituted. It arrived seconds before the picture, but without any means of
inserting that much delay.
