Does anyone know have the same issue or know how to solve it? MPlay has much more latency (nearly 0.3 sec!) and I cannot rely on the preview when making animation by hand anymore. It occurs on both mac and windows even if I reset all of the settings.

some of Houdinists suggest me not to use it for manual animation which is sensitive to audio syncing and otherwise it'd be better to try audio-reactive approaches w/ CHOPs. Yet I think precise playback is a quite basic feature that all of the software for video production should be equipped.
