Nvidia Shield audio offset and delayed playback after auto playing episodes

[Jack Burton 98]

My Shield (hardwired) has been doing this for quite a while now, Android TV app build 3.4.34 on Windows Beta Server 4.9.0.37 (though it's been happening for the last 20 updates at least). When the next episode of a show starts automatically or next ep is selected, if the video starts right away the audio is offset. Skipping ahead or behind resyncs. Sometimes just skipping starts the audio offset if the show has been playing for multiple episodes (seems to get worse/more frequent the more episodes play). After a few eps of offset audio, the next episode will take a while to start (10-30 seconds) then start 10 or more seconds into the episode, sometimes with the audio fine and others with the audio offset as well as the delay in playing. Included server log, not sure if there's a way to get a Shield log, hoping the server log is enough. Log was sent after an episode auto played and had audio offset. Thanks.

 

Edit: None of these issues occur playing multiple episodes on Google TV

That version number suggests you are using the Emby for Android app, not the Android TV app.

What do you mean by this exactly?

Correct, I got used to thinking of them as Emby FOR Android TV and Emby Android TV. It is just the Emby Android app

Episodes play fine on Chromecast for Google TV with the same Android app.
