<body>Hello Paul, Barry,<br><br>not adding anything helful I am afraid, but maybe related? Recently I observed the problem tha occasionally, the audio of my recordings gets tainted... I think the center channel in the surround audio track gets lost, yesterday I had an example, some sound but almost no voices.I switched the frontend audio to hdmi/2.1, same, then in the playback, I switched from the surround track (ac3 I think) to stereo and the voices were back.<br><br>It is just some minutes, not the whole recording.<br><br>This has happened several times recently, but never before that. I suspected the problem in the programming or recording, drivers...??? But not in myth. I guess I should try to reproduce playing the file with with vlc.<br><br>So much from me... Let me know if I can add to the information trying something.<br><br>BR<br><br>Matthias<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">Am 7.

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">I have a frequent issue with my AV receiver frequently dropping a audio
channel randomly during playback. ie sometimes it works and then one of the
channels drops then after a few minutes it returns.
Is there anything in the MythTV config or my Audio config which would cause
this issue?
Note I'm using Digtal audio via HDMI and have done for a while now.
Most of the channels I watch are only two channels with the exception of
one (Au Channel Ten)
Any pointers ? is this a PC software/hardware or Receiver issue?</pre>

<p>Have you checked the HDMI cable is fully inserted (both ends)? I
had a similar problem with a 2-channel set-up: ended up the cable
wasn't fully inserted: felt like it was.</p>
<p>Could also try swapping out the cable: over the years I've had
various cables and couplers which just don't play nice in a
specific situation -- not enough springiness or the pin is a
fraction too short. (Yet work fine elsewhere.)<br>
