Aaron, I spent all evening on
Aaron,
I spent all evening on this one. I reinstalled the audio drivers, no joy. I tried the AVR and TV set up with Audio Return Channel enabled and disabled, no joy x2.
I sent the HTPCs HDMI cable straight into the TV using the TVs speakers and HDMI audio and no bouncing audio. I moved the HDMI cable back to the AVR and the audio is bouncing again.
The only audio I decode on the HTPC is music, mp3’s. All other material, video, has it’s audio bit-streamed (either optical or HDMI) and decoded by the AVR.
Only Live TV has bouncing audio. No other video source on the HTPC has this issue. I can play MPGs, MKVs, DVDs, BluRays and recorded TV both HD & SD with no bouncing audio.
When the audio starts to bounce and I press the skip forward button (even though I never paused the Live Tv) the bouncing stops for 5~15 min and then starts bouncing again. The duty cycle of the bouncing is also varying from 2~3 sec to 15 or so between bounces.
I disabled all other audio devices both output and input, still no joy.
I am thoroughly stumped on this one. I’ve gone back to optical for the HTPC until I can figure this out.
