msgonz 4 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) I’ve been having an issue for some time now with the NVidia shield and Emby. I watch most of my TV using Bluetooth headphones when I play them through Emby there is small amount of static in the sound, however if I select “correct playback” from the player everything is fine no static. I’ve tested this with multiple shields and headphones and the results are always the same. Is there any chance of having an option that toggles the “correct playback” on and off from the main settings so that all videos play from the start with ether “correct playback” on or off, instead of having to enable it every time a video is played?

ebr 14903 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I use bt headphones with mine all the time and never have encountered this. Based on how you described it, I would guess it is related to the format of the audio in these items and how your system is processing them when sent via bt.

I don’t mean to disagree but I tested this on several Shields and mi Boxes using different bt headphones. All of them had slight crackling/static when playing back audio. If I may ask what model of bt headphones are you using? Here’s the specs for one of the video files; Audio Codec AC3 Layout Stereo Channels 2 ch Butrate 192 kps Sample rate 48000 Hz Default Yes Title Eng Dolby Digital stereo Default Video Codec H264 Avc Yes Profile Main Level 31 Resolution 1280x532 Bitrate 4243 kbps Edited November 24, 2017 by msgonz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you use your BT headphones for TV or just music.? I'm looking for a new set without wires. But I thought BT caused an audio delay... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I use Beats Studios with a cheap BT transmitter plugged into my AVR. One thing I found with this setup is that you need to turn down the volume at the source (AVR) and then turn it up at the headphones or it will overload and distort. Perhaps that is what you are encountering. This entire process is completely outside of the app though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
