I have a recently purchased 23" lcd TV in the front of the motorhome and a 15" recently purchased lcd TV in the bedroom of the motorhome. My problem is that the sound on the two TVs is not sycronized. There is a split second delay in sound between the two TV (yes they are different brands). Has anyone heard of this problem and is there anything that can be done about it. When I had two CRT TV I did not have this problem.

Do you have DVR on one? If so there is your answer. The one withdvr has about a second delay.Know of another who had the same problem and was told he could not fix it.

No I do not have DVR . I am going through one sat. box and watching the same chanel on both TVs. Very annoying sounds like an echo.

I can think of two possibilities.
1. Is one of the TV's connected via HDMI cable? If so, the digital processing that take splace can cause a slight delay when compared to an analog conneted set.
2. Sound does travel at a finite speed. Possibly you are hearing the effects of the distance involved.

I have that problem when using the tuner on my DVR. It slows the signal down so I can't use a nearby Tv at the same time unless I turn the sound down. Is that a solution for you? Use the sound from just one of the Tv's?

The digital processing speed of the signal is different between the two TV's, thus causing the delay and echo. Probably running the closest one on "S" video or Video out and the other on Ch. 3. You could try running both on Ch. 3 and see if that helps any. Not much more you can do....

You could add a loop of coax between the TV's so as to delay the lead TV. Calculate the required length of cable by dividing the delay by the speed of light - simple physics :-)

Unfortunately I am already running both TVs on channel 3. I was hoping there was some little trick that would solve it. I was already past the 30 day return policy before I noticed it.
