ALLM causing lag spikes/screen jumps every 5 seconds

We all have the same version

Hi,

There has been 2 build updates in the last couple of weeks so it must be one of them that has resolved the issue.

Can I ask you guys are you seeing what I'm seeing since this update. After playing a while, maybe a few hours, my sound goes out of sync with my gameplay, so I'll fire my gun on screen then the sound will happen shortly after. It happens with both auto & PMC sound settings on glass, only happens in games not the TV, it's pretty much as bad as our previous issue as it now happens every play session. A quick turn on & off fixes it, until it happens again. Feels like whatever they've done to fix the original issue has caused this

I have moved my xbox into my spare room onto a gaming monitor so can't really comment as I don't use it on the glass anymore.

But It would not surprise me the issue you are having as I have it with normal watching of the tv. 

Quickly changing channel solves it but 1-2 hour later audio is out of sync.

Perfect example for me is when I watch the F1

After the race finishes and they interview the drivers the audio is out of sync big time.

Another example is similar scenario but after a football match, they interview players and lips massive out of sync.

It's a annoying issue but change channel and switch back and problem is gone for another couple of hours.

Maybe similar is happening with console, all I can suggest is maybe switch to something from live tv then back to xbox input see of that resolves it for you

Never noticed it when watching the apps like Netflix etc but maybe that's because we mainly watch tv shows and they are 45-60mins each and maybe when a new episode starts something refreshes, who knows.

But what I can confirm is that is if something is playing long enough the audio will eventually go out of sync that's why I notice it more on F1 and football as they both run for approx 2hours

@Robmcc83 cheers for the input. I can say though I usually game all day, around house jobs, so my Xbox is on 8am to 5pm roughly & it's never gone out of sync in 4 years, not once. Only been happening since the previous issue was fixed. Feels more than a coincidence but idk

Has this issue been fixed ? Just ordered the gen 2 and a bit worried now.

[Nawwti]

Yeah I turned Dolby sound off on my Xbox I think & it stopped, changed it back to stereo. 

[Domodemon]

Cheers, what about the lag with the Allm and game mode, have they fixed that? Apparently it used to skip every 5 seconds due to it not switching to 60hz properly.

[Nawwti]

Yeah all good mate 👍 enjoy

2 quick things, the picture as a TV can look bad without tweaking the custom picture settings. The only real sky set setting that's good is extra vivid but it's very bright & for some reason game shows look really bad, shame really as it looks really good but will potentially hurt your eyes - try it with auto backlight adjustment turned on, might help, much depends on your room & eyes lol.

For gaming they all look bad especially extra vivid so you'll deffo need a custom settings, I'll send you mine if you're struggling but I have colour really high at maybe 90, contrast just below midway, video brightness same as contrast at like 45, sharpness 0-10, 

The main settings for both gaming & TV i have Dolby vision on dark. Hdr mode on dark. & auto backlight on. 

For sound turn the bass boost thing off unless you've no neighbours lol & turn on enhance speech quality. If you've any sound issues at all put digital audio output on pcm stereo.

The takeaway is fiddle with the settings a lot until you're happy. & there's 2 settings saved even though it doesnt say so, at least the custom picture settings tab, so when you switch between gaming & TV it auto adjusts. I have TV colour on 70 & gaming as 90, sounds high & it might be on glass 2 as it's a better screen so spend time getting it right for you 👍

Thanks for those tips pal, looking forward to it coming now
