Thank you for the idea, unluckily even that did not help. I'll try to recompress the sound track (grunting) to see what happens.

Thank you, but that unluckily did not help (or change anything)...

Some time after changing my HTPC from RPi3 (which is now an octoprint server) to RPi4 I discovered that some of my older video files have a very choppy (jerky?) sound. All the problematic files are TV-rips and they play fine on PC with VLC. The VLC shows the H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) as video codec and MPEG Audio layer 1/2 (mpga) as audio codec. The display is an old Panasonic plasma TV connected via HDMI.

The problem is not audible for first ca. 30 - 90 seconds, then it starts to increase, pause/playing the video helps for the same time again. Video playback is smooth all the time.

System information shows CPU utilization up to 40%, the temperatures are quite low. I have tried to enable or disable audio passthrough without any observable change.

I'd be grateful for any ideas.
