Description

I think it would be great if you added the functionality to adjust the video and audio sync. When using bluetooth headphones or playing with a bad connection or anything else that causes latency, it would be really cool if you could then use a slider to either have to audio play "before" or "after" the video to then in reality sync the two up.

Research direction

Start by locating the extension’s video and audio playback paths and any existing player controls or settings related to timing. Determine how a slider could represent audio before or after video, then verify the behavior against Bluetooth or poor-connection latency cases.
