    If it's an expert in something who is being interviewed then it's customary to have lots of books in view behind them.

    If it's a scientific expert then they might have some lab equipment behind them instead.

    How else would you know they're an expert? Blank walls tell you nothing.

    No doubt my telly has it, but would it mean I have to fiddle around changing the delay all time? For all broadcast items it is not needed; only for some video links.

    You know in 20 odd years of doing A/V I've never had that issue? Even when I was daisy-chaining the DVD player through the VCR.

    Yes - I never came across the problem until the advent of broadcast video links. I assume it doesn't affect those involved; it's only when the link is broadcast does the problem arise. It's not consistent either, with some of the participants the delay doesn't occur (or if it does, the delay is so small I don't notice it).

    It depends on the transmission. If it's analogue then there's no need for it. I never needed it until using streaming services. From then it's been quite handy, which is why they put the feature in I guess.

    I don't think there's been analogue TV transmissions for a long time.

    But I don't use streaming so maybe that's why I haven't encountered it.

    No, but playing a DVD player through a VCR would be an analogue connection.

    My 2020 energy report.

    Compared to the average UK home, you're lowering your total emissions by 3,178 kg of CO2e per year. It would take 1,589 trees to absorb that.

    How big are the trees? What type of tree? In what environment?

    Do they have a 'standard' tree modelled, based on measuring the CO2 uptake of every type of tree in every environment? I bet they don't.

    What a load of bollocks.
