I have some severe clipping, cutting out, choppy, glitchy, stuttering (whatever is the correct term) audio.
It happens for a millisecond every other second or so. It feels that it happens more often when there are audio intense moments, but it could also be that it's just more noticeable at those moments.
It happens on both HDMI channels (Apple TV and XBOX), as well as DTV (which I never watch, so that's not really an issue, but could help determining the problem).
The apps on Samsung works better, but after a while the clipping sound appears. On the apps it occurs sometimes and sometimes not, compared to the Apple TV and XBOX where it happens all the time steadily.
When I connect the optical cable to my XBOX everything sounds perfect and there is no clipping whatsoever.
Also analogue works perfectly with the amp.
All the suggestions I've read mostly focused on changing the Digital Output Audio Format to PCM, which I've tried with no luck.
I've tried factory resetting the TV which didn't do anything.
The manual for my amp says:
The digital inputs are capable of handling up to 24bit / 192 kHz audio signal in PCM-format. check your source signal type to make sure it is in the right format.
Are there any settings I'm missing on my TV to set this up properly? Does 24bit / 192kHz mean anything that I should change in the setup?
Here is my setup:
TV: The Frame 2019 49" (QE49LS03RAU) – 2 months old
Amp: NAD Amp1 (NADAMP1BK) connected via the optical input (D1 for TV use) with a new optical cable (ARGCL1OPT1,0) – both bought 1 week ago
Stereo system 2:1
HDMI 1: Apple TV4 connected with new Premium HDMI cable from Deltaco
I've tried all the different audio settings (Stereo / Dolby Digital, and forcing 16bit) which doesn't change anything
HDMI 2: XBOX One S connected with the in-the-box HDMI cable – 2 weeks old
Tried Stereo Uncompressed and Bitstream, neither changed anything.
Worth noting is that the TV don't recognize my amp correctly, it instead sets it up as a Denon.
When it doesn't want to set the amp up and I manually have to say which it is I can choose Nad Amp1, but the remote won't work then and it didn't have any any other affect on the audio.
