Re: Audio Sync problem with new 360 box
Just bumping this as it's been another week. Any update on this issue? I've posted this before but for me and others in this thread the sync problem is specific to Dolby Digital and appears to be related to the way the new TV 360 software upscales the picture to the resolution of the TV. The older Tivo software actually displayed the same sync problem but allowed you to pass through the signal at whatever resolution it arrived at, without upscaling, which resolved the problem. I'm confident that adding the same option to the TV 360 boxes will resolve this issue for many.2.3KViews1like3CommentsRe: Audio Sync problem with new 360 box
Agreed - but selecting Automatic just picks the highest available resolution for your TV (in my case, 4K) and upscales everything to that. So it is functionally identical to picking 4K from the list. There is no equivalent of the functionality that the V6 box had where you could tell it what resolutions were acceptable and it would pass those through. UK broadcast TV is predominantly in 1080i and allowing the V6 to pass that signal through without converting it gave me perfect audio sync and a better picture too. TV 360 can't currently do that. (I also don't want to force the box to 1080i for everything, because that then prevents the viewing of actual 4K content. It's just a clear downgrade from the functionality that was previously offered).4.3KViews1like0CommentsRe: Audio Sync problem with new 360 box
Just adding my voice to those experiencing this problem. Upgrading my V6 box to TV 360 has broken my audio sync. Any form of Dolby Audio (whether enabled, or "Follow Content") results in the sound and picture being out of sync. I have to disable Dolby completely to get them aligned again. Audio sync on both 5.1 and 2.0 channels was fine with the V6 box (exact same hardware) so this is 100% a software problem. I suspect it is a result of TV 360 forcing the box to upscale to 4K for all content, whereas V6 allowed 1080i and other signals to be passed through without conversion. In general despite the slightly nicer interface I am finding TV 360 to be significantly worse than V6 for this and many other reasons.4.4KViews3likes5Comments
