Four parts: classic countdown (flash and 1 kHz beep on the same frame), offset finder (eleven flashes, each beep shifted by a known amount from -100 to +100 ms in 20 ms steps), real-life ping-pong ball and clapperboard, and the same click from L, C, R and LFE. Pick the offset pair that looks in sync: +40 means the sound comes 40 ms early (add 40 ms audio delay), -40 means it comes 40 ms late (remove 40 ms). Measured inside the finished DCP: worst error 0.13 ms. Watch from the reference seat, two-thirds back.

Measurement signal for the XC Sync Meter iPhone app: a 5 s lead-in, then 60 events, one per second. Each event is a white disk on exactly one frame plus a 40 ms linear chirp (1.5 to 4 kHz) on the centre channel, starting on that frame. The app films the screen at 240 fps and finds the chirp with a matched filter, so it reports the system's audio delay in milliseconds. Measure 5 m from the screen on the centre line and set the distance to 5.0 m. Verified inside the finished DCP with the app's method: 60 / 60 events, 0.000 ms. Preview build; the design will change.
