A method of playing back audio/video signals by means of an audio/video system includes a decoder appliance connected to a display screen and to a wireless speaker including a buffer storing audio frames so as to allow latency between receiving encoded audio frames and supplying decoded audio frames. The method comprises the steps of: determining a filling level of the buffer; comparing the filling level of the buffer with a filling target for the buffer and deducing a filling difference therefrom; and increasing or decreasing the number of audio frames that are stored as a function of the filling difference so as to adjust latency.
