I have a Vero4k and I’ve been having problems with audio and video stutter since the August 2021 update. Randomly I get skipped frames or the audio stops for a brief moment. It happens with both audio passthrough or when the the Vero4k is doing audio decoding. It happens with both 4k and bluray mkv movies. When there is an audio dropout it is usually for just a brief moment, but with the clip I provide a log for, the audio disappears and don’t come back until I stop the movie and start it again.
User is connected by wire. The logs show audio synchronisation errors. I for one don’t know why that should be or apply to both bluray and 4k. There’s a known bug when playing 4k with 44.1ks/s PCM audio but the video in the log is TrueHD.
During playback open your audio settings and change the audio offset back to 0 and then click on the set as default option. Stop and restart playback and see if the issue is still there.
I tested with the 5.1 Dolby Digital stream for about 10 minutes and the audio didn’t drop out. I didn’t have time to test it more since it is getting late so I don’t know if there are problems later. Looking at the log file there still seems to be some sync errors, but I am no expert on analyzing the log.
How do you have your shares connected? I have them connected through fstab NFS but also get stutters (buffering issues too) sometimes. I read that mounting via WebDAV could improve things, you can try that for once!
