After updating Vero V to March 2025 release, the first second of audio gets skipped when playing music. This originally happened on my Vero 4K+. I ordered a new Vero V, and the same problem happens on the new device. I am playing FLAC files.
I reinstalled November 2024 release on the Vero V, and music plays normally.
I created 2 debug logs.
The first is the November 2024 where music plays correctly… https://paste.osmc.tv/odeqawivan.xml
Then I updated again to March 2025, and created a new debug log, where the first second of audio gets skipped…

Looking at other support topics, there was a similar report about MP3 files, but no resolution. I DID try keep alive, fixed 48k bitrate, and different audio outputs (HDMI, Analog, USB DAC (my default). All have the same symptoms.
I will try using OGG and MP3, although I would prefer to stick with FLAC.
Thanks for an otherwise great product !!

I tried March update with both OGG and MP3 and they worked.
It seems the problem is only with FLAC files.
I have yet to find a FLAC file that works correctly…
Further testing…
I re-created some FLAC files using the latest versions of FFMPEG and FLAC command line. Original and new files work fine with every other player I try.
New versions also have invalid sync code errors from “ffmpegdirect” in Kodi.
Only in the March 2025 version of software.
I am now using an OGG copy of my library in Kodi…
