Hey everybody,
I´ve got a little problem with my AFTV (unrooted, newest Amazon Firmware and Kodi dated 23.12.2014).
I configured everything I need and tried a movie from my synology but there was only the movie and no sound.
Trying a Haddon from a local radio station it is the same problem, no sound.
The original FTV, like Instant Video, is working normally.
Do you have an idea, what I can do to get sound working with Kodi?
Thank you

*EDIT*
Problem occurs when the AFTV wakes up from standby and affect both systems, AFTV and Kodi.
Need more detail. You don't mention what audio is contained in the file (but you mention an add-on which I'm assuming is 2-ch stereo), what audio device you are sending to (e.g. receiver, soundbar, etc.), and which method (optical or HDMI) you are using for transport.
The sound in the movie is Dolby Digital 5.1 and from the addon it is 2.0.
Sound should go directly via HDMI to the TV.

What audio output settings do you have set in Kodi?
Hi everybody,
problem has been solved by itself.
After a complete power cut, everything is working fine.
Hi everyboby,
problem is still there.
But I have some new information:
- Problem occurs, when AFTV is waking up from Standby (complete AFTV has no sound)
- when I change the resolution from automatic to 1080p 60fps or 1080p 50fps, the sound comes back.
- Changing this setting back to automatic will not cause the problem again.
Any ideas, what exactly causes the problem and how to solve it?
Thank you very much

Hi everybody,
I just tested the AFTV with a Toshiba TV and it is working fine.
I think this must be a problem between AFTV and Philips TV.
Any ideas?
Thank you

Do you have another HDMI cable you can try?
Not that I think it will make a difference, but how are you waking the Fire?
Hey everybody,
I just tried the cdmi cable from my PS3. Same problem.
I wakeup the fire tv with the home buttons on the remote.
Maybe firmware in the TV? How old is it? Have you ever updated the firmware?

You don't happen to know more about this do you? On my newer smart tv, firmware updates are automatic. But my bedroom aftv is connected to an old-ish tv with no Ethernet*and obviously no WiFi. It does have a usb port and DVD drive. But it's 1080p, good picture and I have little need to upgrade. Except...
I have this one of a kind issue where I need to reboot about 70% of the time before I use it
with aftv. The sound cuts in & out. Reboot fixes it. I was happy when someone showed me fast reboot, an app that simulates reboots but it doesn't work for this one issue. Needs an actual reboot.
Anyway just takin a shot you or anyone might know of a website with a database of firmwares. I'm thinking if it doesn't go online the tv doesn't typically get updates but I don't know.
I have a Samsung LN46A650. To upgrade the firmware, I download it to a USB stick, plug that into the WISELINK port, and follow the menu.
For you, the first step is to determine if there *is* an update.
Post the brand and model?
I have same issue with my Samsung TV ... well it has happened 2-3 times. I fix it by turning off and on the TV.
I believe it may be related to CEC going screwy when the device goes to sleep

I didn't mean to suggest that updating my firmware had anything to do with the issue folks here are having. I don't have the issue, but I routinely check for firmware and software updates on everything I own.
That said, I suppose it's possible, but I consider it very unlikely that CEC would have anything to do with this. Anyone else here have a universal remote that can test that out?

hello
did your any other solution for this Problem ? - i find it so annoying ......
I have the same problem and turning the TV off and on fixes it for me too.
I've had my Fire TV with XBMC for about a year and I didn't have this problem at first. It really seems like a firmware update messed it up.

Bt Sport and Fox sport apps on fire stick
Hi
My bt sport app has started to jitter when playing video and so does fox sport from within directv. I jave noticed that th bt app updated itself.
Is there a way to stop the auto updates or to maybe lower the bitrate of videos to stop jitters. It is really starting to annoy me. My sky go app did it but I installed an earlier app version and it solved it. When yoi try to install an earlier bt sport app version it prompts to upgrade.
Any input would be much appreciated
Thanks

BT Sport Fire TV Stick Jitters
Hi, mine is the same. Running V2.9.0 and its un-watchable. The picture quality is excellent but the frame rate is very low making everything lurch around the screen.
Anyone got any suggestions to fix this? Ive got Kodi installed, maybe its just me but most of the sports streams are terrible quality. I've got a BT Sport subscription so would like to be able to watch it legitimately.
Got BT Sport running on iPhone and also Kindle Fire HD (3rd gen) but unable to cast either of them onto the fire stick to get it on the big screen.
Cheers,
Im having the same problem with bt sport on my firestick the picture quality is fine but the framerate is all choppy. Has anyone found a solution to this?

Hi,
I am in love with the NVIDIA shield (the pro 2019 model) , I just bought one and I cannot believe the the difference in quality when it comes to playing videos.
I changed the default video play that it comes with VLC. whatever video I play and in most times, I can rewind or FF the video. However, there are so many times when the player crashes (closes) when I do that for no obvious reason. I tried that with so many videos but I am not sure why this problem happens.
When I got the shield, I noticed that I will not be able to FF or RW unless i use the dedicated buttons on the remote (that is with the stock video player and before switching to VLC). Now I cannot figure out how to solve this annoying problem or how to return to the stock player (original player). Can someone please help?
Guys, any help with this matter please?
Hi, I am currently watching TV shows on my Kodi firestick. while I am watching television and browsing Facebook or even Instagram when a video starts playing/audio the show I am watching pauses, I have to then press play to continue the show on tv.
Anyone know why videos that start with audio (Instagram and Facebook) pause the videos I am watching on my tv/first stick?
This was not occuring with my OnePlus 7t pro
I think there may be a problem with your sound card. I also had such a problem when using discord, the interrupts stopped after sound card updates. I am currently able to follow various broadcasts such as TV or radio without freezing. canlı tv
