As an early Encore DV450 owner I`m more than qualified to answer this, he jested.

It`s basically where the dialogue doesn`t quite match the picture, and the actors` moving mouths. I`ve also noticed it on BBC Choice, and it is very very annoying.

Sometimes it`s just a case of altering the delay time on your amplifier if you have one, but more often than not it`s a glitch in the firmware (set of instructions that the DVD player uses to work out what it`s supposed to be doing).

Thankfully for Encore owners recent firmware updates have cleared this, but there are still problems with some players at the cheaper end of the market.
