Audio sync problem with playing recordings

[bennettpeter]

I am using Kodi Isengard version with pvr.mythtv Isengard source version from the download page, on Raspberry Pi 2

When playing a recording, if I use the forward and back arrows to skip commercials, the audio becomes unsynchronized. Lip-sync is incorrect. Stopping play and resuming fixes it, also switching from analog to digital audio and back to analog fixes it. Pausing does not help, when resuming it is still unsynchronized.

This problem also existed with the Helix version. It has got worse with isengard. With Helix it happened occasionally, but with Isengard it happens almost every time I skip.

Same problem on raspbian jessie with kodi from http://michael.gorven.za.net/raspberrypi/xbmc

Were you able to fix this?

Nothing can be fixed in addon, the original issue is in xbmc itself, probably in omxplayer.

This is a problem with the TS MPG files that mythtv creates. A workaround I used is to convert the files in mythtv to mkv files with a user job. I convert to mkv using program mkvmerge, without transcoding. Conversion is very quick.

Could you open a track ticket for kodi ?

Done: http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/16611

@nxdefiant , thanks

hmm, can someone with an rpi test this issue with an order kernel, e.g. 3.18?

Closing this because it is very old.
