Am I the only one that can't stand the few hundred millisecond delay of Bluetooth audio?
Not at all! It drives me nuts. I've tried watching movies with Bluetooth headphones on, so as not to bug my wife at night, and it just feels off. Almost like watching old subtitled movies. I checked it out and my headphones have a ~250ms response time. My car's system literally has a nearly two second delay and I can't take it.
holy shit is that what that is??? it's fucking awful i thought that video playback was somehow really intensive on my phone is fucky weird ways that were random and annoying.
It seems to be worse with multiple devices in use. I tried going Bluetooth only on my work laptop, and it just couldn't handle my keyboard, mouse, and headphones (headphones would be laggy and sometimes skip/get static).
So for my work computer, I use wired headphones and Bluetooth everything else (I like typing with my keyboard on my lap sometimes).
