wasn't it the opposite ?
with 1.5.2 video data can be "skipped" giving priority to audio data.
We don't have desynch problems...
but i have an idea:

half a second is a lot...
may i ask you if you attached audio and video on 2 differents objects on
your subscriber ?
It's common to attach video data on a video object (es.
camera.mc.attachVideo(stream) )
and attach audio data on a separate clip in order to create a sound
object on it to adjust player volume
es.
audio_mc.attachAudio(stream);
var suondObj=new Sound(audio_mc);
soundObj. setVolume(volumeValueWhichComesFromASlid
erComponent);


if this is the case... well... it creates problems on our systems.
if you attach the audio on the video component (same object where you
attached the video data) you won't experience sync problems.
But you won't be able to adjust volume.
This happens with live streams only (and flash player 7, with 8 looks
like it's ok)... and looks like it only happens to us... i would be
happy to see it's not our problem
