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?

No, I don't think this is related to the audio drop thread or hardware. I've experienced the same thing during the past couple of weeks. The audio is exactly as Nubio described. It is gargled. I first noticed it on ABC and switched over to CBS and the problem was still present. NBC was okay. The next night NBC was gargling and ABC and CBS were not. This is with component cable to my t.v., but the gargling is still present if I switch over to optical via receiver. I have seen this problem posted on another BBS and seems like the posts were mainly from the Dallas and Houston areas of Texas. I have the same Houston LiL's that Nubio receives. I have yet to contact Dish, hoping that it gets resolved before it gets to that point. Thanks, Nubio, for confirming that there are others out there hearing the gargled audio signal.
