FLAC - bzzt sound when starting every song.

Post by starterz »

Hello again,

I just noticed that when playing FLACs on my Philips 40PFL6606H/12 (transcoded to wave), there is a noticeable bzzt-click sound when every new song is starting. This is happening with separate flacs, when using a cue file there is a bzzt-click sound only when starting playing (it is all one file). It does not happen when streaming MP3 (no transcode).

Any way to diagnose and eliminate this annoyance?

Thanks and all best.

Anyone with an idea concerning this? Could someone check if this happens on other renderers too, while playing FLACs?

Thanks.

Sorry :-) I wrongly assumed that this issue does not need a debug log. Here it is, in attach. I changed <root level="TRACE"> as suggested.

The scenario: I start the album (separate FLACs), there is no bzzt sound at the beginning. I click next after several seconds, there is a noticeable bzzt sound before that second track starts playing. Happens again when changing to next track.

The sound is similar to a crack sound from a vinyl record, and always happens only once.

Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks and stay well.
