A method for audio/video synchronization and an apparatus thereof are provided. At least one dynamic synchronization checkpoint is disposed on the playback sample number axis of a video. Whether or not the audio and the video are synchronized is checked when the playback sample number of the video is set the dynamic synchronization checkpoint. The video is paused playing if the playback speed of the video is too fast, and those delayed playback sample number of the video having not been played are skipped if the playback speed of the video is too slow. Furthermore, the location of the dynamic synchronization checkpoint and the frequency of performing synchronization detection are adjusted according to the playback time jitter between the audio and the video.
