Not an easy one this one. So got an iptv provider happy with that. Now i have a samsung qe55q80t tv and a sonos beam and play wireless rear speakers, I'm currently using homematics r 4k box. Same problem with nividia shield 2022 version. Using tivimate and watching programs like blue bloods I'm getting an annoying 1 second audio drop randomly. I have changed hdmi cables, factory reset the tv, dropped the 4k splitter so its direct. I've sent a file to sonos to check and they say nothing wrong other than a bit of interference. I've followed all the online fault finding i can. So i thought i would ask here before i buy a new tv ect. The odd thing is i have just played the same show blue bloods twice using xstreamity on my satellite box and i have not heard any drop outs. I also happens on other shows. I think the satellite box outputs ts feeds. Would anyone know what output tivimate on android boxes use?

I also have a new dreambox play i can test on and a mecool box too. Can any one recommend any other iptv players i could try out and test, possibly with ts stream output.
 
It sounds like possible codec issue with tivimate normally using external player helps. Try kodi.

I dont think anything is wrong with tv as it plays perfectly through enigma box.

One final check you could try is connect sub to your tv and test on that
 
What is the setup? e.g. Are all the boxes connected direct to the tv and that soundbar uses eARC, or do all the boxes go through the soundbar? And does the soundbar and tv have hdmi 2.0 or 2.1 ports>

If the issue is just with tivimate, it may be an exoplayer issue. Perhaps try switching the player to VLC.

Thanks Mike and Drox for your replies.

Setting up is gigablue sat box hdmi1, homematics android box hdmi 2, sonos beam on hdmi 3 earc, qviart dual sat box hdmi 4. All 3 boxes connected via ethernet cable. Swapped so many hdmi cables for the latest ones and swapped two different android boxes and the fault still exist. All the hdmi ports have been switched around in various guises and all boxes taken out an just the android box plus sonos tried. I beleive it also happended when i tried using smarters app too. Trying audio passthrough as we speak as recommended. I can also try vlc player as external player with tivimate.
 
The problem i had was the Freeview channel was tuned to an HD channel even tho like you i never used it.For some weird reason tuning to an SD channel fixed the problem 🤔
