Adding an audio delay causes random sound cuts

Postby qkviz » 25 Mar 2017 23:14

I noticed the audio delay function in VLC makes the audio randomly cut later in the playback of DD5.1 and DTS formats in passthrough mode.
Whenever that happens, the sound cuts off for 1 second and then comes back again.
I get those typically 3-5 times per movie and when I rewind to the part in which the audio cut out, it doesn't cut anymore (also with Kodi player it works flawlessly, which is why I'm sure my sources aren't damaged)
When no delay is set for lipsync purposes , I don't get that bug.

I heard that VLC project is getting discontinued. But why not post a message telling people to move on to something else, instead of letting people post bug reports that will remain unanswered on this forum ?
That's just rude.

No, you haven't heard that because it's not true.

Because we don't know the answer, yet.

Can you try with VLC 3.0, please?

It still does it. (albeit only once in the movie I just watched)
BTW VLC 3.0 is buggy for me. I have a green line above the bottom black band of the movies.
