audio/video sync problems when casting from Magis TV to Chromecast

I’ve been using Magis TV on my Android phone and it streams fine locally. The issue starts when I cast to my Chromecast with Google TV. The video plays smoothly, but the audio is always slightly out of sync – sometimes ahead, sometimes delayed.

MagisTV works with Google Assistant voice commands while casting?

I installed MagisTV on my Android phone and it works fine for streaming. When I cast content to my Chromecast with Google TV, playback starts without issues. However, I’m not sure if Google Assistant voice commands can control the stream

It sounds like the issue is related to audio/video synchronization during casting rather than the app itself. Here are a few things you can try:

Check Chromecast firmware: make sure your Chromecast with Google TV is running the latest software update (Settings > System > About > System update).
Match refresh rate: on your Chromecast, go to Settings > Display & Sound > Match content frame rate and enable it.
Adjust audio sync manually: in Settings > Display & Sound > Advanced > Audio sync, you can fine-tune the delay.
Restart both devices: a quick reboot of your phone and Chromecast can sometimes fix temporary lag.
Try casting in a different way: instead of mirroring, use the built-in Cast option from the app if available.

If the problem persists, it may be a compatibility issue between Magis TV’s player and Chromecast’s decoder. In that case, try using an external player like VLC or MX Player (if supported by the app).
