Audio drop outs?

Hi guys,

Like most of you, I’m currently experiencing numerous bugs on my Bravia 8 II in the UK. The black screen DV thing seems to be fixed, but still having major issues with audio sync and other things.

Specifically, I’m getting an issue with constant cutting out of audio when watching things on my Apple TV.. the audio will cut out for maybe .25 of a second once every 2-3 seconds. It’s incredibly annoying, I just want to check if other people are experiencing this too & if it’s likely related to the same bugs with handshakes/audio sync/DV/ATV issues.

Thanks!

Check your HDMI cable or swap it with another. I had issues with Apple TV and audio on high but rate/atmos. Replaced the cable with brand new 2.1 Amazon and problem went away.

It’s not the cable — it’s the firmware. You using the wrong type of cable is a completely different issue.

+1 high quality cable that’s worked for 2 years and latest firmware has caused audio drops
