ViP 211 - "Gargling" Audio

1425 Views 5 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  Nubio,

i've only had Dish TV now for a few weeks, and last week i started noticing a "gargling" sound on the audio of the local channels, mainly when someone on screen first begins to speak...the gargling is just heard like in the first syllable of spoken words, but not on all dialogue and sounds

this issue just became noticable last week, the audio was fine before that

i don't believe it's my TV's speakers causing the problem, because i have the ViP 211 connected via HDMI to my TV and i also run optical from the 211 to my AV receiver....i heard this gargling sound through my TVs speakers, as well as when i ran the audio directly through my AV receiver and HT speakers

any ideas?

This is more than likely the "audio drop" issue/glitch which has been talked about when using optical audio. It could be that you're just hearing it as a "gargling" sound. (Depends on how you processor handles it, I guess). Also when you say locals, I assume you're referring to the Dish LiL's, not OTA. The audio drop issue is also present on all the SAT HD channels as well. I notice it when I first tune to the HD channel and then a few seconds later. But the issue can also be present during all of the program.
