Hi.
My Problem:
While playing a video or LiveTV, the Audio is stuttering in irregular intervals, while the video looks fine.
Stuttering: The audio doesn't sound weird, it just mutes on and off stuttering for a few seconds every few minutes.
My Hardware:
- Asrock Beebox i5 7200u | 64GB SSD | 8GB RAM
- USB-Soundcard: Creative Sound Blaster Play! 2
- USB HDMI-CEC PulseEight Adapter
- HDMI1: WimaxIT 14" FullHD
- HDMI2: Samsung 50" TV (with CEC-Adapter)
I didn't use it for some time, so i don't exactly know when it worked the last time.
The problem occures independent of the video format. From SD AVI with MP3 to 1080p H265 AC3 5.1.
What i tested so far:
- Switching from LE11 Generic Legacy to LE 11 Generic.
- Downgrading to LE10.
- Complete new installation of LE Generic Legacy.
- I tested it without the USB-Soundcard
- I tested it with only the TV without CEC-Adapter
- I tested it with only the 14" monitor.
- I tested Audiooutput to Headphone, Tv and Monitor.
- Almoust all gui settings regarding audio or video.
- Increased Buffering to 4gb
- changing cpu scaling governor to performance
I'm currently running the latest nightly of LE 11 Generic Legacy. The only addon i installed is the TVHeadend Client. Disabling it makes no difference.
Some observions:
- cpu usage of kodi.bin increases from ~32 to ~100 while audio stuttering. (using ssh and top)
- I think the problem increased after refreshing the video libraries (MyVideo121.db: ~250mb)
Any Ideas?
