VLC for Android APK

It is very unlikely that an audio airplay does not synchronize with its video presentation. It is much worse than delayed or advanced presented subtitles or footages that were captured by an ordinary handycam. Instead of getting the best entertainment from your favorite audio and visual effects, such irritating delays and distortions on the audio can entirely ruin your mood. But, through VLC audio sync application, a solution is provided in just a breeze.

In reality, a poor source and problems on the conversion are the reasons of these hassles. An out of sync audio effect is an indicative sign that your filmic copy came from somewhere legitimate yet unreliable source. The mismatching of the audio and the video presentation might be caused by troubles in conversion of the National Television System Committee (NTSC) to Programmable Alternate Line (PAL). This is a common reason why the length of a specific audio track is not adjusted properly. With VLC audio sync hotkey solution, synchronizing the audio effects with the visuals is very easy.

The VideoLan Client audio sync is a very helpful technology for the audio and video track synchronization. If you navigate your PC, you can locate an offset value expressed in milliseconds to give advanced options for audio preferences of the specific application.  Appropriate guessing of the right value should be observed, since doing this often results to trial and error efforts. You can do this by restarting the movie you are playing, and then determining if the audio or sound effects have been more or less from the visual. If it is not yet synchronized, trying the process again is required until the right timing and adjustments are made.

With VLC audio sync keyboard shortcuts, adjusting both the audio and video visual is aided. You do not have to worry with the adjustments, since these keyboard shortcuts avoid thumb-crushing and irritating hammer blows. For Mac, keyboard F and G are used, while for windows, letters J and K are utilized for the adjustments. Respectively, the audio can be moved back or forward with 50 milliseconds. Navigating through these shortcuts is quick, easy with no advanced fiddling prerequisites.

On the VLC player, you can simply synchronize the audio over the video if they are out of sync by first, clicking the ‘Tools’ tab on VLC while the movie is still playing. After that, from the drop down menu, you should choose the ‘Extended Settings’ and then click on the ‘Synchronization’ tab. When the options pop up, you can see under the audio and video options, where you can click the arrow up or depending on the voice synchronization your video track needed.

Being the world’s best video player, any problem with the video track can affect the entertainment that you and your friends are looking for. With VLC audio sync that features easy shortcuts for syncing audio while on the fly, attaining quality video watching is highly possible. The best thing about this solution is that there are no charges at stake.

Download Lego Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles for Android

Surprisingly, the licensed LEGO Star Wars PC and console games (and most of the subsequent Indiana Jones/Batman/Harry Potter/et cetera games) turned out to be pretty good. They're tight, enjoyable adventure games with interesting construction mechanics, and humor suitable to both kids and adults. Though The LEGO Group has released more than a dozen Android titles already, their first tie-in game is LEGO Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles, available now as a free download. Just in case you didn't get your Star Wars fix with Angry Birds or pinball.

The player guides either the titular Dagobah-dweller or his Dark Side counterpart Count Dooku through eight levels, with the series' standard add-on characters, buildable vehicles, and surprisingly varied mini-games breaking up the top-down shooting and slashing. (That puts the game in between episodes two and three in movie terms, for anyone who still cares.) LEGO games of this nature are somewhere between a platformer (beat the bad guys, collect the coins) and Zelda, with plenty of puzzles and brick-based humor.
 
I usually download free games to try them a bit and look out for in-app purchases before posting these types of stories, but according to the Play Store, LEGO Star Wars is only compatible with my ancient HTC DROID Incredible and Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9, neither of which are handy. Fellow Android Police writers Cameron Summerson and Cody Toombs show a similar situation on their devices, with only older Samsung, ASUS, and HTC hardware supported at the moment. I've got a Transformer Prime TF-201 as well, but strangely, mine is showing as incompatible.

We'll chalk this up to an error with either the initial release, or one of the more common errors with the actual Play Store listing. If anyone out there in Internetland cares to give this a go and has hardware that's currently supported, let us know about it in the comments section.

Download Diner Dash for Android

Since launching for the PC and Mac in 2003, the saucy time management strategy sim Diner Dash amassed a staggering 700 million total downloads.

A good chunk of these came from iOS, where its Pocket Gamer Silver Award-winning port landed back in 2008.

Since that time, Diner Dash served up a few spin-offs and revamped versions but has never crossed over to the world of Android.

That's changed this week, as the free-to-play time management game is now available on Google Play.

Kiss my grits

Diner Dash follows the adventures of Flo, a former stockbroker turned diner waitress who struggles to seat and serve customers as quickly as possible in a quest to earn a large tip.

Most anyone who's worked in the food service industry can sympathize with Flo's madcap juggling act, but Diner Dash makes the chaos fun by tasking players with seating a variety of customers ranging from busy business types to garlic-fearing vampires.

Those interested in picking up Diner Dash can grab the original free-to-play version from Google Play by clicking here or they can invest 99c / 69p in Diner Dash Deluxe.
