Audio desync setting via ActiveX

[PhilB]

I'm just getting started with the VLC using the ActiveX 2.1 plug-in in and embedded video player using MS Visual Studio. I am interested in using VLC as an alternative to Windows Media player (which I am using now) to exploit VLC's audio desync feature.

Is it possible to set the audio-desync value using the ActiveX interface? Based on comments I saw in another post, it appears it might be possible to set --audio-desync using the playlist.add function using options; though I have not tried it and I assume it will only work if the video is restarted once the playlist item has been added and the desync offset has been set.

I'm more interested in being able to adjust the offset real-time while the video is playing so that I can fix occasional audio lead/lag issues on some videos. Is this possible and if so, how can it be done?
