Interesting, I figured it would be like any other normal chain where you add up the latency. Is this in the documentation somewhere?With your TV having >20ms latency, you'll not really notice the sound being 10ms late - that's not even 2/3 of a frame at 60Hz. The latencies occur in parallel, not sequentially. i.e. the HDMI stream is not buffered for 30ms in the A16, it is passed immediately, while the audio processing takes place in parallel.
It's not clear from Gilles' mail that the 4-5ms delay is for ATMOS as well - I would doubt that. Maybe ask him, his english should be good enough.
Regardless, hopefully the game mode (and other firmware features) don't take too long after it's out in the wild...
