Periodic audio dropout on HD TV
#1
I am using TVHeadend on a RPi3B, Kodi V18.2, with a Mygica T230C tuner.

This works well with standard definition channels, but with a seemingly minor, but annoying, problem with HDTV. Video is OK, but audio "hiccups" every 3-4 seconds, i.e. drops out for a fraction of a second.

This occurs with latest versions of both Libreelec and OSMC. Also if I record and then playback, there is no problem.

I am using the MPEG-2 codec. I have tried adjusting the buffering with the "Advanced Settings" file, and also overclocking, without any change. The only setting which affected the problem, was turning on the OMXPlayer accelerator, which made the problem much worse.

I would appreciate any suggestions on how to resolve this issue.
