Audio feedback time shifted filtering systems and methods are presented. The systems and methods facilitate separation of program audio feedback from received environmental audio (e.g., audio sensed by a microphone.) The separation of the program audio feedback reduces interference from program content audio feedback on performance of voice recognition operations. In one embodiment of a personal video recorder audio filter method, environmental audio patterns are received, an audio feedback time shift filter process is executed for separating out program content from the environmental audio patterns, and voice recognition is performed on the filtered environment audio patterns (without interference from program audio content feedback). The time shift or deterministic delay provides a closer correlation between program audio content and program audio content feedback received at the microphone and permits input timing compensation to compensate for feedback loop delays.
