Audio skipping

Hi,

I am having a problem with my kodi which just started today, yesterday is was working perfectly. No matter what i stream whether it is a tv show or movie the audio skips every few seconds. The video continues but the audio cuts out for a second, it’s like a hiccup or a stutter. I have tried a full kodi uninstall and reinstall but the same thing is happening. I am using krypton on a windows 10 tablet and just playing through the tablet so no possible HDMI issues or external hardware issues etc. The only thing that i have done today is download itunes which has maybe changed something in the audio settings somewhere?

I have been looking at old threads and found this suggestion but i don’t know how or where to implement it?

1 make sure that the variable DPRIORITY is set to no in /etc/default/xbmc
2 1. is not enough to turn of DP completely. Unfortunately, kodi.bin will be launched with priority 49 and it will newer changed later. So, to turn it completely off you have to modify the file /etc/init/xbmc.conf. Please change the line exec schedtool -R -p 49 -e sudo -u $USER -g $GROUP -s $DAEMON $DAEMON_ARGS $DAEMON_LIRC $DEBUG 2>&1 | grep -v ES30 || : to sudo -u $USER -g $GROUP -s $DAEMON $DAEMON_ARGS $DAEMON_LIRC $DEBUG 2>&1 || :

Reboot and see if it helps you too.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
